Would b better if Built NY would go 4 the rubber grill 4 both sides. No false advertising there, pics clearly show the grill is only on 1 side, standard neoprene 4 the other. Just a wish. Like this sleeve a lot.This is a great-looking sleeve, with quality construction. It definitely seems like a 15" mbp sleeve that will accomodate a 15" MBP Retina, as my retina has more room to roam than I expected. If you really want a snug fit for a retina, I would hold out for a retina-specific sleeve... Tom Bihn and Waterfield Designs have them, and they are hand made and awesome. Both those companies make incredible stuff, although they lack in the style of this sleeve.
I got this one because it would ship quick, and I liked how the front mesh made it look non-generic but seemed to fit with the look of the laptop.
That's all good, but for one thing: The front mesh and the "BUILT" label are rubber and they stick to your bag or other things in your bag when you try to slide this out elegantly. The logo tag is on the bottom and sticks out a minimum 1/8th inch, and is loose enough to get snagged on anything in it's path as it slides out of your bag. A 15" MPB has a pretty large footprint, so chances are that if you're sliding this in or out of a backpack or other bag you've got a tight fit already.
The idea for the mesh is a good one. Built needs to come up with a more slippery coating for it. The juice doesn't justify the squeeze, for me, and this will get used for the very rare times I transport my older-generation MBP.
