The Book Mystique Review – Premium Leather Flight Jacket MacBook Pro Cases. A few months back I reviewed the retro revival of the MacCase Classic computer case. Originally designed in 1999 for the then brand-new clamshell iBook. Now offered for the 13-inch MacBook in the full range of classic iBook colors. Both the design and workmanship of the Key Lime Classic Case we tested were impressive. The latest offering from MacCase takes cool and classy to an even higher level. MacCases a new Premium Leather Flight Jacket has a retro flare as well. This time reaching substantially further back then 1999 to the era between the twentieth century world wars. It was a time when aviators wore leather flight jackets to buffer the wind-battering they got in open-cockpit aircraft. Chilly temperatures at high altitudes in non-pressurized cabins made such clothing a must. The Flight Jacket looks like a piece of kit in which Indiana Jones, a young Indiana Jones, might have used. Designed by MacCase CEO Michael Santoro, a professional industrial designer who spent six years working in Chryslers styling office. During which he created the exterior design of the 1995 Car Of The Year: the Chrysler Cirrus. Along with its sistership the Dodge Status. As well as the return-to-its-roots restyle of the 1996 – 2006 Jeep Wrangler. Santoro clearly has a feel and flair for traditionally iconic form. He’s also done design consultancy for the Vector M-12 and Lamborghini Jota exoticars, and the Gulfstream G5 executive aircraft. Drawing on the success of MacCases Premium Leather Collection of computer sleeves, shoulder bags, and iPod, iPhone, and accessory cases, which are contemporarily-styled, the MacCase Premium Leather Flight Jacket has a more complex and retro-funky look. It is entirely believable as something that might have been made in the 1930s. Pictures really dont do it justice, and it has a presence that kind of reaches out and grabs you.

The Flight Jacket combines the protective benefits of the companys sleeve with the utility of the larger shoulder bag. The case is available in three colors: Chocolate, Black, and Distressed Vintage. All feature contrasting white stitching and robust stainless steel hardware. Our review unit is the Distressed Vintage version. I have only seen the Black version in photographs.

Including Apples latest launch of the new 13 MacBook and 15 MacBook Pro. The quality of the leather work is excellent. The material itself thick but luxuriously soft, with neatly-done stitching.

A removable, customized pouch for the MacBook Air Super Drive or AC adapter for the larger MacBook Pro models. On the outer face of the flap is a full-width zipper-closure pocket. It’s lined with nylon taffeta fabric over what feels like a thin layer of foam padding. Under the flap cover on the front of the Flight Jacket is another the pocket. It’s also taffeta-lined and with its own dedicated central Velcro closure. There is another deep, open pocket on the back side of the case. The computer compartment is lined with a soft knit fabric and has somewhat heavier protective padding.
