Thule Briefcase, Blue, 16

Feel very secure with my laptop riding in this case. Fit and feel is wonderful and the color is amazing! Throw it in your bag and go!

Perfect for a pricey laptop that needs protection. The armor cladding that snaps on laptops is not recommended for the Pro machines as they need unrestricted airflow when in operation. The price of these laptops makes it wise to follow that advice. This case is protective yet allows airflow. Fit and build quality are excellent

This is the only Thule brand that would fit my husband’s MacPro laptop that I got him to use for Law School. His Mac is still running great and he doesn’t want to upgrade!I bought a Thule Gaunlet in grey as well in 2011 when I got the Mac. The only difference between that one and this newer ?The old one fit a bit snugger on his model and it had Velcro straps to hold the Mac in when zipped up.However, the OLD one did NOT have the fantastic soft spongy interior as this new one does! and the NEW one does NOT have the Velcro straps… my husband says “no problem” he hasn’t had an issue with any sliding about. He said if he does, he will simply add a short strip of industrial strength Velcro on the back of his Mac and bottom inside of case. Brilliant idea!He works with his Mac as it stays in the case anyway- that’s what’s so great about the Thule Gauntlet case! You never have to fumble are removing your Mac- you can work right from the case.Thule IMHO is awesome quality! I mean, his first case lasted eleven years and frankly the only wear and tear was that there was some fraying and crumbling off of material around the zipper. Honestly? It’s still usable but I want him to look his best in every way- right down to his Mac case :)Order any case from Thule- just DO IT!

The Thule MacBook cases are among our favorites. In credibly well built, comfortable to the hand whilst providing good protection from most of the dangers we all face.This particular case was a bit larger than we were expecting for our older MacBook Pro 15, but it works. Would recommend any Thule case for those looking for great protection.

This case has adequate padding and side padding which other cases I have owned do not. I bought it to protect it inside my Tumi travel bag (which came with no padding despite its price : P). While I agree with another review that the straps on the side could cause a catastrophe, that is Apple's fault as it is MacBook design. Computers can either look pretty or be tough, but they generally can't be both. The other review also suggested cutting the straps on the side if you have a MacBook to save yourself from an expensive mistake. Probably not a bad idea.

great product. I get compliments on it every single day

This thing is so dumb. The straps on each side of the open case are stitched together right in the center with a big, hard seam that closes inside your laptop every time you close the case. If you aren't careful to remove them, you could easily press too hard and crack your screen. My last Thule case was great, and this one looks almost exactly like it, except for the stupid straps. I could just cut them off, but then the part of the case that covers the back when it's open would just flop onto the table. I'm returning it instead. I have no idea why they even made this.

I always trust the Thule to protect my expensive laptops. Perfect fit, durable, attractive.
