Knomo’s Barbican sleeve is a touch of leather luxury for your laptop

Few things can deliver luxury in just 13 inches. Vertu’s Signature Touch does it in 5.2 – but it also charges upwards of £7,500 for the privilege. For a less expensive (but just as touchy-feely pleasing) dose of premium, pack your Mac in this svelte sleeve from serial case-makers Knomo. Hewn with love from full-grain leather, the Barbican Leather Sleeve (£79) is lined with faux-fur to keep your precious MacBook Air (or equivalent Ultrabook) safe and snug – and, like every Knomo product, it’s fitted with a unique code to help locate it if you come over all forgetful while living the high life.
