Gauntlet Sleeve Macbook® Pro 14"

Used Thurl cases for my previous laptops simple well made and strong does the job perfectly

Wish the lid opened more and you could strap laptop on in and use while in the holder. But very robust when closed away

As others have mentioned replaced the elasticated straps with nylon type material which restricts how far you can open screen 90 degrees max, otherwise this is a great piece of kit to keep your MacBook safe, good fit to MacBook 14 inch

As a long-time user of the previous generation Thule Gauntlet sleeve (version 3), I bought the version 4 model for my new 14"MacBook Pro. Unfortunately, on openng the case, I was disappointed to see that Thule have replaced the elastic 'hinges' on the previous model with non-stretchable fabric. This replacing (/cheapening?) of material means that you can only use the laptop inside the case at a maximum angle of 90 degrees. In most situations this just doesn't work, as the laptop needs to be open to a larger angle in order to see the screen properly. This severely limits the 'use inside sleeve' functionality. I found in most situations I just took the laptop out of the sleeve completely, as I couldn't see the screen very well. Not particularly impressed with this backwards step by Thule! I have no idea why the product team would decide to make this poor design decision, espsecially as the case is very expensive for what it does. Apart from the hinges, the case is made pretty well and looks fairly durable.

When you close this with an open mac in it the elastics that hold the lid up fold into the mac so the lid shuts sandwiching the elastics which looks like it will crack the screen from pressure.

Highly recommend

Perfect — looks great, not too heavy, good protection.

Perfecto para mi MacBook Air de 13 pulgadas M3 de 2024. Además de robusta es un estuche muy bonito ideal si no te quieres llevar la mochila o el maletín.

Fits perfectly to my MacBook Pro M4 14". Not to bulky, but provides good protection. I've already used it in a few days long trip, with flight, drive and conference - the case kept safe my notebook no matter how I handled my backpack.

I'm surprised it costs this much but I guess there aren't any competitors who come close to what they're offering in terms of build quality and aesthetics. I think it looks sleek. Branding is subtle. Feels well built and the fit is snug on the 2023 mbp 14". I think the straps are a bad design idea and I don't see a single use case for using the laptop and leaving it in the case. For one, the screen angle is too steep so you need to pull the laptop out a bit to bend the screen back. Even after that... what's the point? Just pull it out and use it normally or put it on top of the closed case. Besides making no functional sense the worst part is that it blocks the laptop from being able to enter smoothly. It will get caught on the side straps which means you must open it all the way up, put laptop in, then close. Personally I plan to use it like my first picture. Leave the sides partially closed and only the side opened to slide the laptop in sideways. With the side straps cut, I can do this smoothly. I think Thule would do well with these if they made more colors. Overall, after cutting the side straps, I'm happy with this. I think it will protect the laptop sufficiently well during travel.

Najlepszy case jaki mialem, ale srodek moglby miec microfibre bo juz porysowalem w tym case macbooka przez jakis pylek.

Ne avevo comprata una simile anni fa per un precedente laptop, è durata oltre dieci anni. Il modello precedente aveva bande elastiche per unire le due calotte e una cinghia con velcro per fissare ulteriormente il computer al suo interno, non ci sono più ed è un peccato. Sono comunque contento del mio acquisto.
