F84 AND F85 SLEEVES for MacBook Air®

It's Graphic:
The New SLEEVE for MacBook Air!

Whether a truck trucks through the Arizona desert to pick up tons of hot chillis in Mexico, or a truck trucks to Spain to get some sweet strawberries for Zurich's Gold Coast coasters, it's always homesick for its own, safe and comfortable garage. There, after a long day of hard trucking, it can shift down, let the tyres take a deep breath and hang the antenna.

Laptops are similar. After hard and efficient computing, they need a safe garage. Also called sleeve. FREITAG knows. Don't forget, we're heavy users. That's why we developed the SLEEVE for MacBook Air with its legendary closure in the first place.

While the Mac Air Sleeve has wrapped many design lovers around its fingers, there was always something missing: graphics! Now we give Air-owners a thousand and one individual recycled reasons to lay their hands on the thinnest of all FREITAG SLEEVES:

Making the SLEEVES out of design tarps – replacing the yellow and white unicolored rooftop-tarps – means the popular FREITAG color-game in choosing your very own «Individual Recycled (Data) Freeway Product» starts anew: Choose your sleeve from 16.7 million colors and individual graphics (ok, we're exaggerating a bit – but hey, we're excited). The other good news: Our classic F85 SLEEVE for MacBook Air 13" is getting the F84 SLEEVE for MacBook Air 11" for a brother.

In terms of longevity, the slim sleeves are created equal to  all other FREITAG products. They'll probably even outlive the age of computers. But that's a different story.
