Apple Laptop Cases and iPad Pro Cases by Size
The First Name in Apple Laptop Cases Since 1998 No Matter the Size
MacCase created the Apple-specific case market in 1998. Before Michael Santoro sketched the first mac case (a colorful, round briefcase for the original iBook), there was no such thing as an Apple laptop case, only generic laptop bags that didn't fit, didn't protect, and didn't reflect the quality of the machine inside. We changed that. For nearly 30 years, MacCase has made apple laptop cases, bags, sleeves, and backpacks for every generation of Apple portable: from the original iBook, through PowerBooks to the current MacBook Pro M5 and iPad Pro.
MacCase has made cases for every Apple laptop size since 1998. The original iBook came in one size. The PowerBook era introduced multiple sizes. The MacBook Pro line has ranged from 13-inch to 17-inch over its history. MacCase has followed every size change Apple has made for nearly 30 years, which is why the current lineup covers 13-inch through 16-inch without gaps. This page organizes every MacCase product by size so you can find the right Apple computer case for your specific model without guessing.
Why Size Matter for Apple Laptop and Tablet Cases
Choosing the wrong size Apple laptop case is the most common purchasing mistake. MacBook Pro 14-inch and 16-inch have meaningfully different footprints from MacBook Air 13-inch and 15-inch. Depending on tbhe design, a case sized for a 13-inch Air will not fit a 16-inch Pro. A sleeve sized for a 15-inch Pro will be loose on a 14-inch Air, allowing movement that causes the very scratches the sleeve is meant to prevent. MacCase products specify compatible models by name in every product listing. When in doubt, go to Apple menu → About This Mac to confirm your model before ordering.
Carry Your MacBook and iPad Together
Many MacCase customers want to carry both a MacBook and an iPad. MacCase offers several models that can accommodate an Apple laptop and tablet together. If you're looking for a MacBook and iPad case solution or a Macbook iPad bag that handles both devices in a single form factor, our 15-inch and 16-inch Flight Jackets, all our rPET nylon backpacks, nylon and leather messenger bags and our Premium Leather briefcase are the right starting points.

Apple Laptop Covers and Cases: Two Materials
MacCase offers two material lines for all Apple laptop covers and cases:
• Premium Leather — Ethically sourced, vegetable-dyed full-grain and top-grain leather. The hides are sourced from ex-Hindu dairy cows in the Indian highlands. Once the cows pass naturally, their hides become available. The professional's choice for Apple computer cases as they develop a natural patina over time and are built to last decades. The MacCase Premium Leather Collection launched in 2007.
• Sustainable Nylon — rPET nylon made from recycled post-consumer plastic bottles. Lightweight, weather-resistant, and tough. The active user's choice for Apple laptop bags and covers that can handle daily commuting, campus, and travel.
Both material lines are rated using our Protection Rating System, a transparent score that tells you exactly what level of protection you're getting before you buy.

MacCase makes iPad cases for iPad Pro and Air in 13-inch, 12.9-inch, and 11-inch. Options include leather folios, sleeves, bags, backpacks, and briefcases. Use the size grid above to navigate to your iPad size.

Who created the Apple-specific case market?
MacCase's founder Michael Santoro created the Apple-specific case market in 1998, founding the company on a colorful briefcase design for the original iBook. For nearly 30 years MacCase has made innovative bags, cases, sleeves, and backpacks for every generation of Apple portable, from the original iBook and PowerBook to the current MacBook Pro M5 and iPad Pro.
What is the difference between an Apple laptop case and an Apple laptop cover?
An Apple laptop case typically refers to a carry case which can be a sleeve, bag, or messenger bag that transports the laptop. An Apple laptop cover refers to a size-specific, molded hardshell case that stays on the laptop during use, protecting the exterior from scratches and impacts. MacCase makes both: the Hybrid MacBook Case is a hardshell cover that stays on the laptop, while MacCase sleeves, bags, and messenger bags are carry cases. For maximum protection, use both together.
