11-inch and 13-inch iPad Pro and Air Folios, Cases, Bags and Sleeves - Handmade Since 2010
16 Years of Innovative iPad-Specific Protection
MacCase has been crafting premium Apple-specific cases, sleeves, bags, and briefcases since pioneering the category in 1998. We've been designing and building handmade cases for iPads since they were launched in 2010. That's 16 years of continuous refinement and design innovation.
We are the only company that offers two complete and distinctly refined product lines: our Premium Leather Collection, meticulously handcrafted from ethically sourced full-grain and top-grain leather, and our rPET Nylon Collection, thoughtfully engineered from premium recycled post-consumer materials.
This collection delivers the ultimate protection and carry solutions for the latest iPad Pro (M4 / M5) and iPad Air (M2 / M3) models. From precision-fit leather folio cases and rugged co-molded shells to luxurious leather sleeves, sophisticated messenger bags, briefcases, and Magic Keyboard solutions, we offer a complete range of carefully considered options for both sizes.
Each MacCase product is built to the same uncompromising standard of excellence: delivering superior long-term protection, an elevated everyday experience, and a level of refinement and durability designed to outlast the iPad it was created to protect.
11-Inch vs. 13-Inch iPad Pro: Choosing the Right Size
The single most important factor in choosing any iPad Pro case, bag, or sleeve is getting the right size. iPad Pro and iPad Air cases are precision-fit: an 11-inch case will not fit a 13-inch tablet and vice versa. Before browsing, confirm your model:
• iPad Pro M5 13-inch — 2026, current generation
• iPad Pro M4 13-inch — 2024, previous generation
• iPad Pro M5 11-inch — 2026, current generation
• iPad Pro M4 11-inch — 2024, previous generation
• iPad Air M3 13-inch — 2025, current generation
• iPad Air M2 13-inch — 2024, previous generation
• iPad Air M3 11-inch — 2025, current generation
• iPad Air M2 11-inch — 2024, previous generation
If you're unsure of your model, go to Settings → General → About on your iPad. The model name and chip generation are listed there.
Which Size iPad Pro is Right for You?
If you haven't yet purchased your iPad Pro and are deciding between 11-inch and 13-inch, here is the honest breakdown and how it affects which protection solution you'll need:
Choose the 13-Inch iPad Pro or Air If:
You use your iPad Pro as a primary work device, for document editing, creative work, presentations, or video production. The 13-inch screen provides near-laptop real estate, pairs naturally with the Magic Keyboard, and is the preferred size for professionals who use Apple Pencil Pro for detailed work. The tradeoff is size and weight. A 13-inch iPad Pro requires a larger, more structured bag or briefcase. MacCase offers dedicated 13-inch leather folio cases, briefcases, messenger bags, and Magic Keyboard sleeves specifically sized for this configuration.
Choose the 11-Inch iPad Pro or Air If:
You prioritize portability, commuting, travel, moving between environments throughout the day. The 11-inch is significantly lighter and more compact, fits in more bags, and is easier to use one-handed. Students, creatives on the move, and professionals who carry their iPad alongside a laptop typically prefer the 11-inch. MacCase 11-inch cases, sleeves, and bags are sized precisely for this form factor, not adapted from 13-inch designs.

Long-time customer Dr. Simon Tillier, Professor of Music, Director of Instrumental Ensembles and Conducting at the University of Minnesota shared:
"My MacCase Premium Leather iPad Pro Case has, over some 7 years, proved to be a durable and long-lasting cover to my tablet. Originally chosen due to its excellent on-line reviews and affordability, the case fitted well from the outset and, despite constant daily use in the education, research, and travel settings, it has retained its sheen and tactile appeal.

Premium Leather iPad Pro Briefcase
Handmade, compact full or top-grain leather briefcase for 13-inch iPad Pro or Air with Magic Keyboard. Handle and shoulder strap. Document and accessory storage. Integrated storage for Apple Pencil Pro. Limited Lifetime Warranty. Customer Rob C. told us:
"For weeks, I've been struggling to find a way to integrate iPad Pro (13-inch), Dell 5285 (think Surface Pro), and iPhone into my on-the-fly work life. Enter MacCase and Michael Santoro. Problem solved! Founder, CEO, and Lead Designer, Michael is also, astoundingly very wise. And, of course, hugely helpful to the customer. Michael listened to my proposed use case, asked questions, and made suggestions. When our first game plan, the iPad Pro Flight Jacket had minor fit challenges with my ample gear ... and my less-than-ample stature, Michael helped me problem solve. What about a Flight Case?, I asked, it's deeper and could fit more. Yes, he replied, but it's also longer and might look out of scale on you. Instead, we settled upon an iPad Pro Briefcase. Its horizontal orientation resolved the dimension tightness I had encountered with the Flight Jacket AND appeared smaller hanging from my shoulder. Fit my particular assemblage of gear, including an Apple Magic Keyboard, like the proverbial glove. And, smelled WAY better than a glove to boot. What beautiful materials, design and workmanship! I'll have a smile on my face every day as I sail into action with this awesome case!"

11-Inch iPad Pro M4 & M5 and iPad Air M2 & M3
The models below are specific to the 11-inch Apple tablets as noted.
2026 Premium Leather 11 iPad Pro Case
2026 Premium Leather 11 iPad Air Case
Handmade, full or top-grain leather folio case with contrasting white stitching that highlights the build quality. Offset design (iPad is mounted 5mm inboard of case edges) and TPU polymer tray (TPU absorbs impacts) combine to provide protection. Exclusive optional Magnetic Accessory System adds functionality. Adjustable stand. Apple Pencil Pro charging protection. 11-inch iPad Pro and 11-inch iPad Air specific models. Limited Lifetime Warranty. Long-time customer and someone with a lot of 11-inch iPad case experience MB Wiest told us:
"Then there was one...after having tried four others. This is my second MacCase iPad Folio. I had one for my 10.5" pro. The quality of the leather and interior cloth, the careful attention to details like stitching alignment are spot on. I also tried the Kavaj London, Toro, and Pad & Quill. The Kavaj product uses minimalist materials whose edges won't last the month. The Toro case used good leather but was mounted on a flimsy inner board that bent easily especially at the corner from hell (camera, on/off, and volume). The Pad & Quill used a very thick leather cover material, was stitched very well, and had No edge protection. The 3M mounting adhesive system simply glued to the back of the bare iPad to the inside of the case...meaning, no edge protection. And I could never get used to the strap. The MacCase Folio uses the best leather (Vintage) I've seen. The padded case is just the right thickness and closes authoritatively onto the surface of the iPad. A polymer tray is used to hold the iPad in place. The polymer material is strong enough to hold the iPad securely especially in the corners and along the bottom and acts as a rubber bumper of sorts along the short edges and bottom. The top edge of the iPad is uncovered just enough for the new Pencil and the case flaps help cover the pencil when attached."
iPad Pro 11 Case with Pencil Holder
Co-molded polycarbonate and TPU create a case designed for rough and rugged environments. Integrated Apple Pencil Pro holder that charges your Pencil when in place. Built-in stand and screen cover. 1-year warranty.
The Best Bag for iPad Pro 13 with Magic Keyboard
The Magic Keyboard adds approximately half an inch to the overall width of the 13-inch iPad Pro and leaves the tablet's edges completely unprotected during transport. Most iPad bags are not sized for the tablet-plus-keyboard combination. MacCase offers two solutions specifically designed for this configuration:
The Premium Leather Magic Keyboard Sleeve protects the tablet and keyboard together in a single slim leather sleeve ideal for transport inside a larger bag or briefcase. The integrated Apple Pencil Pro pocket keeps your stylus padded and secure under the main flap. For creatives, this one sleeve becomes the transport system for your "studio on the go".
The Premium Leather iPad Pro Briefcase carries your 13-inch iPad Pro and Magic Keyboard alongside documents, accessories, and personal items. Carry it by the handle or wear it as a shoulder bag. Many users have called it the best bag for the 13-inch iPad Pro with Magic Keyboard. It handles both transport and professional presentation without compromise.
Expert Insight: Designing for 11-Inch and 13-Inch iPad Pro
We spoke with MacCase President and multi-award-winning designer Michael Santoro about designing protection solutions across two very different iPad Pro form factors:
"For MacCase, designing for different iPad sizes is based on how important the fit is to the purpose of the product and overall protection it needs to provide. First and foremost, we start with visionary design. We make sure the design will make a statement. We make sure it's original. We make sure it's a MacCase."
"Our Premium Leather Folio cases are a great example of this. For these models, precision fit is paramount. The case is designed around this. When we add value, like our Magnetic Accessory System, it's scaled in such a way to work with each form factor. This is why the 13-inch has 3 magnets and the 11-inch only 2. For those models, scale matters."
On gender-neutral design: "We have a broad range of customers who use our products. This broad range of situations calls for a multitude of what designers call 'form factors' or styles. Not every bag is going to be right for every person in every situation. I believe my goal of making the products gender-neutral has been successful because a timeless design appeals to everyone. Take our 13-inch iPad carry case with shoulder strap. It sells equally well to men and women because it checks a lot of boxes for a lot of people, regardless of gender."
What to Look for in the Best iPad Pro Case or Bag in 2026
Regardless of size, 11-inch or 13-inch, the right iPad Pro protection solution should answer these questions before you buy:
• Does it fit your specific model: iPad Pro M4/M5 or Air M2/M3, 11-inch or 13-inch?
• Is the tablet compartment fully padded and precision-fit: not a generic sleeve?
• Does it accommodate your Magic Keyboard if you use one?
• Does it have a dedicated Apple Pencil Pro pocket or holder?
• What materials is it made from: full-grain leather, top-grain leather, or rPET nylon?
• What warranty does it carry and does the manufacturer stand behind it?
• Who makes it and how long have they been building iPad-specific protection?
MacCase has been answering these questions since 2010, when the original iPad was launched. By then, we had already been designing Apple-specific cases for 12 years. Every product in this collection is rated using our Protection Rating System so you know exactly what level of protection you're getting before you buy.
