In the past I've used an InCase neoprene sleeve, which works fine but is a rather boring black. I'd love to see what some more design-conscious options are. Or green options (if anyone knows of any).
Thanks!

munckee... I've been looking for new a new sleeve myself. Here are some stylish options:
Anyway, the list goes on. But I'm not catching anything that really grabs me yet. I want something fun and funky or green/sustainable. The ones from the SFMomo look pretty cool. The 9 to 5 is fun, but the finish doesn't look so great to me. Please keep them coming!

SFBags sleeves are nice. I've got one for my old Titanium Powerbook, and it has held up well: http://www.sfbags.com/products/sleevecases/sleevecases.htm
You can specify if you want a flap over the top, or just a strap. You can also add a should strap, etc.

Yeah, I like their eye for design as well. The vinyl kills me though. I've never thought much of vinyl as a "cutting edge" or attractive fabric.

This is a great resource... keep those links coming! Has anyone used the AppleSacs in person? I'm also really liking that Tom Bihn cork laptop sleeve. How protective do you all think they'd be?
For the ultimate in protection, greeness, and creativity, keep the bubble-wrap from your next mailing (or get some at work) and make your own. Clear packing tape and some water paint goes a long way.

Amazing quality--it will last longer than your laptop. Also the customer service is top notch.

Help me find a sleeve for a new macbook?

I second the recommendation for the Waterfield SleeveCase; http://www.sfbags.com/products/sleevecases/sleevecases.htm
