For a hardshell case that doesn’t add a lot of thickness to your MacBook, look no further than the ProCase.

This beautiful book-based case can also double as a sleeve, depending on how you want to use it — and it even has a secret protective clip to hide away documents and folders. The thick, page-like structure will add some extra room to your MacBook, but it will also offer well-padded protection on every side, while still making room for important connections like USB-C ports. Don’t worry, you can also fully zip the case closed when necessary.

You can pick this one up in a variety of different plain color combinations, or opt for the chevron pattern pictured above. The fit is nice and snug.

The case is available in a variety of colors and patterns, so some customization for your style is possible. Overall, it’s a highly affordable, reliable design that offers some real protection.

Note: TomToc has a lot of great cases for Macs with a variety of different protective elements. Even if this case isn’t exactly what you want, it’s worthwhile to peruse some of TomToc’s other offerings to see if any match up with your needs.

Valkit Sleeve

Valkit Sleeve

This Valkit sleeve is stylish and affordable, with PU leather outside and a soft felt interior. The top of the sleeve is connected via a simple magnetic attachment. Open it up and there’s a handy pocket on the inside for cards, and a gap that’s just right for charging most Mac models without needing to take it out first.

However, this sleeve doesn’t offer a lot of protection and is largely designed to be used along with a backpack, briefcase, or another bag instead of purely on its own.

Two back pockets, meanwhile, are also felt-lined and can house phones, earbuds, wallets, cards, and more. The additional felt bag that comes with the laptop case can also hold phones, larger cables, small external hard drives, extra external batteries, and other accessories. It’s a friendly case for traveling or moving around throughout the day, and it’s also highly affordable.

The outer fabric has some water-resistant properties as well, which keeps the bag from staining easily.

Mosiso Sleeve

The polyester Mosiso case offers a fleece fabric lining for bump and scratch protection, but remains slim enough to fit into pretty much every briefcase as long as there’s a little room. There’s an extra pocket up front, but otherwise this model is quite minimalist.

If you’re looking for serious, always-there protection, this case is worth taking a look at.
