It’s portable like a packing cube so you can transfer it from bag to bag, easily remove it at TSA, or even add a strap to use it as a minimalist shoulder bag. And it’s sleek. It’ll turn some heads.”
SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB)
April 20, 2021
To celebrate today’s Apple announcement, San-Francisco maker WaterField Designs introduces the slim and elegant Double-Take iPad and MacBook Sleeve to protect and transport both devices at once. Increasingly, people routinely carry either an iPad Pro and a MacBook or two laptops, one personal and one professional. The modular Double-Take Sleeve, with two padded compartments, a designated Apple Pencil slot, a simple accessory pocket, and the flexibility to transfer it from bag to bag or to carry it over one shoulder, affords dual-device users the agility they need to support their digital lifestyles.
“We hear from more and more customers who always carry two devices, so we designed the Double-Take iPad and MacBook Sleeve to maximize their convenience,” said company owner Gary Waterfield, “Slim, protective, and lightweight, the Double-Take fits two laptops, a tablet and a laptop, two tablets, or one device and accessories. It’s portable like a packing cube so you can transfer it from bag to bag, easily remove it at TSA, or even add a strap to use it as a minimalist shoulder bag. And it’s sleek. It’ll turn some heads.”
The interior of the slim Double-Take consists of two sleeve compartments sewn together accordion-style from wool-blend fabric reminiscent of a handsome wool trench coat. The wool padding cushions the devices and holds them in place while adding beautiful texture and a pop of color. A custom-fitted Apple pencil pocket inside the front compartment keeps the stylus safe and easily accessible, and a rear, open-topped pocket stows a few papers or accessories.
Impact-absorbing foam surrounds the Double-Take Sleeve on the front, back, top, and bottom. Reinforced side seams and corners blunt force from every angle. Nearly-indestructible ballistic nylon, with water-resistant acrylic backing, envelopes the sleeve’s exterior, and a full-grain leather base creates a solid grip and adds further protection.
While the Double-Take stows an iPad and a MacBook with or without a Smart Case (or similarly thin cover), it functions equally well when carrying just one device plus necessities: the extra compartment can hold files, a notebook, or digital accessories. A metal G-hook fastens the sleeve’s padded, lined flap to a choice of nylon loops arranged like a ladder, so gear inside stays secure regardless of volume.
