    I know this has come up a few times in various threads but I thought I would make a thread to address the issue.

    For those of you that already have the new 2014 Blade, what is a good sleeve for it?

    I personally am looking for a neoprene sleeve that fits nice and snug.

    I've heard that MBP sleeve fits pretty well? Not sure which size. Also anyone have the cocoon MBP case for it? and of course there is the actual Razer case but that one does not look very snug to me.

    Thank to all in advance!

    You want something that will protect it, or just a covering?

    The Razer Armor case is good for protecting it. It has hard plastic exterior panels, high density foam inside, and a strap to hold it in place. After what happened to my 2013 model when it slipped and fell out of my backpack, I'd rather a case than just a sleeve.

    I'll be carrying it in my backpack. I just need a soft sleeve/case to protect it from scratches and small bumps. I would prefer not to have the armor case as it is bulkier.

    I went in to Best Buy yesterday, looking for something similar. I brought the Blade in with me to test the fit. I really liked the interior of the Incase, but it was a little too tight a fit for my preference and I was a little worried about the zippers scratching the finish.

    I ended up getting this one: HP 13.3 Leather Sleeve | HP® Official Store It fits like a glove and has a nice magnetic closure. I really dig it.

    Does any have experience with sleeves available in the UK? I've just bought this sleeve for my new 2014 Blade only to find it's not wide enough.
