Handmade Laptop Sleeves

As I mentioned in my Sunday post, B and I were gifted with a new computer this weekend.  It's a 13" MacBook pro and to say that I love it would be a mild understatement.  Since we received the computer, I've been on the hunt for a gender neutral, handmade laptop sleeve.  "Gender neutral" is easier said then done.  Here are some of the ones I found and liked:























1)Laptop Sleeve Hessian pale blue and red canvas $60 via ambette 2) Laptop Sleeve in Echino Scooter Fabric $28 via Creating Things 3) Grey Wool Felt and Brown leather $74 via byrd & belle 4) Honeybear Laptop Sleeve $37.95 via Lollington

Here's the one I purchased. I like the retro feel of the stripes and the bike is fun yet still "gender neutral" AND the addition of handles means there's less chance of my dropping it (hopefully).
Vintage Bicycle on Stripes $48 via Track and Field. 
















There are lots of girly options at Track and Field, including bags with doilies that I was very tempted to buy.  I suppose a doily isn't gender neutral though.  What do you think of my choice?  Do you have a source for laptop bags?

    Nice choice of laptop bags. Still looking for a laptop that'll fit my (miniscule) budget. I like the one with the scooters best.

    I used to have MAC's and did buy a used G4 with an immense screen that's been sitting for like 3 years now. I've been tempted by the laptop so it's good to know you like it.
