Designed exclusively for MacBook Air (Late 2010), BookBook is a totally unique case for the thinnest of MacBooks. Weighing as little as 13.5 ounces with an ultra-thin profile, this handmade, genuine leather case offers heavy duty protection. Two hardback covers, reinforced corners and a tough spine offer solid impact protection. The inside of the case is lined with a velvety soft, chocolate brown, padded interior for added protection.
To keep your Air safe, BookBook has two rigid, hardback covers for impact protection. A tough spine and reinforced corners add another layer of defense. Inside the slim case, your Mac rests between two super soft, chocolate brown, padded cushions, which look amazing against the silver finish on MacBook.
BookBook is made with genuine leather and is hand distressed so no two are exactly alike. Designer cornices on the top of the case add a visual cue to ensure you always open BookBook right-side up. Use BookBook as a traditional sleeve or use the two soft elastic bands to steady your Mac while you work with it resting inside the case. Dual zippers, with leather pulls, let you charge your Air while it’s safely stored inside BookBook.
One of the coolest features of BookBook is the fact that it disguises your MacBook Air, making it look like a vintage book. Tucked safely inside BookBook, your Mac is kept out of sight, even while sitting in your dorm room, coffee shop or anywhere else you take your Mac. Along with protecting your Air from the rigor of the road, BookBook helps keep it away from wandering eyes.

air case,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Twelve South (12-1103) BookBook Hardback Leather Case for 11" MacBook Air (Personal Computers)
bought this as a gift for my wife for her macbook air. She loves the way it looks, it really does look like a book or ledger when closed. The quality of the leather is good, it's soft and feels like suede. The interior of the case is padded well (microfiber I think, but feels like suede as well). The zipper is strong, but the leather pull tab on the zipper feels thin and a bit flimsy. If anything breaks or rips on this case it would be the pull tabs on the zipper. It's easy to hold, easy to grip. The macbook air fits tightly, and you have to be careful opening and closing the zipper so you don't scratch the macbook inside. When the case is open with the macbook inside, the back of the zippers come to a stop right where the upper half and the lower half of the macbook come together. Be careful not to open too quickly because if those zippers get caught between the upper and lower halves it could scratch your macbook. My wife is usually very careful with her things, so she doesn't have a problem with the zippers. Overall it's a quality item, overpriced in my opinion but very unique and pretty, my wife has already had great comments from a few people, so she's happy and that makes it worth the price.

This review is from: Twelve South (12-1104) BookBook Hardback Leather Case for 13" for MacBook Air (Personal Computers)
I like it. Doesn't fool anybody to thinking it is a real book when nobody has ever seen you read a book. Nice feel to it, Will buy the iPad one also.

Yes, it's pricey. If you're looking for a good value and function over form, keep looking. There are much cheaper options available that provide better protection. But if you're reading this, that's likely not your MO. I can't tell you the number of compliments I've received since I started using this - people love it. And more importantly, I love it. Also, the "security feature" of looking a book is legit. It's always fun to see the look of surprise on people's faces when I open my "leather book" for the first time, revealing (an equally beautiful) MBA inside.One thing that surprised me is how much I enjoy using it while it is still in its case. I didn't expect this at all and had just assumed that I would remove the case whenever in use. I've never had an issue with the computer getting too warm, and the convenience of simply closing the computer and zipping up is great. My one minor gripe (other than the initial price, which is water under the bridge now) is that I miss the feeling of carrying around an impossibly thin laptop because of the added bulk. It's not a huge issue, but I do have a tinge of envy whenever I heft my wife's 13" MBA in a slim neoprene sleeve. The benefits - being enormously more attractive and providing better protection - still far outweigh the downsides though. One other minor gripe regarding protection though... The hard covers on either side offer excellent protection, and the soft interior is great as well. However, the zippered sides of the case provide little protection from impact. I'm always a bit paranoid of this when setting a backpack down when I have the case inside. I waffled for some time on whether or not to pull the trigger on this one (my wife's eyes bulged when I divulged the sticker price...), but I can now say that I'm definitely glad I did. 2115|R2NWFN6LJ9P9TW;2115|R2M9DKB9L6GXMB;2115|R2R97P13U3HA0Z;
