Another laptop sleeve recommendation thread.

So I've ordered a clevo w230ss, my alienware m11x sleeve surely won't work, thus I need a new one, preferably as cheap as possible that won't fall apart soon. Preferably with a small compartment on its outside for some papers sketchbook whatnot.

Only really really important thing is, the alienware sleeve I got, fits really tight on my alienware. I'd want new one to fit more loosely on the clevo, as it stripped rubber feet within a month off my m11x, taking it in and out of it twice a day or so... Rather poorly thought out.

I'd consider getting a whole new backpack with a laptop compartment, but I've got a new backpack recently so would prefer to avoid doing that... Though if it's relatively cheap I probably would.

I'm in UK. Preferably not too expensive. It's a 13.3"

Caselogic 14" laptop backpack seems nice, around 30£, how well is it made if anybody has it?

Also since its a rather thick laptop, even though 13.3" screen should I look at 14" sleeves or even 15" just in case? Due to thickness 14" should be fairly close?

How much bulk can you tolerate? Some people want sleeves just to protect against scratching while others want some padding on it (which would inevitably increase the bulk of the overall thing) so that aspect will influence what choices there are. I mean, there's your very generic, simple and effective neoprene stuff then there's hardcore protection like Booq or Zeroshock sleeves.

 

I currently have a neoprene and it worked fine for around 2 years now which I got from Dell when I bought my m11x, however as I mentioned to peeled off the rubber feet within a few months... Which I don't like very much... It's mostly in backpack with my 3ds and external hdd among other things, and backpack has padding as well. I don't play football with it or anything, mostly for daily scratches and bruises. Don't mean envelope thin, as there might be an odd sharp edged object in there now and again...

Edit: so I went for a target 13.1-14" laptop sleeve, fits aright though a bit looser than I thought. At least won't peel off the rubber feet etc. Was a bit of an impulse buy but it seems to work fine.

The Internal material is important is you want to keep laptop from scratch! velvet would be better!
