The flap has a magnet buried inside the\nleather, which is why there is no visible snap or hardware anywhere on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFull-Grain Leather MacBook Case Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuede inside, leather outside\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe entire lining is \u003cstrong\u003esuede\u003c\/strong\u003e. It is the surface your MacBook slides against every\ntime you take it out, and it is the reason an aluminum lid stays clean. The full-grain leather on\nthe outside does the other half of the job: it takes the knocks a laptop gets inside a bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA magnet you cannot see\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe closure is a \u003cstrong\u003emagnet set inside the leather itself\u003c\/strong\u003e, not a snap fastened\nthrough it.

On\nthe back of the case there is a \u003cstrong\u003efull-length pocket\u003c\/strong\u003e that takes papers and a\nnotebook, which is what turns it from a sleeve into the only thing you carry into a meeting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA curved cut to get the laptop out\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe front panel is cut in a \u003cstrong\u003ecurve\u003c\/strong\u003e at the opening.

Because the surface is never sanded down, each case carries the\ngrain of the hide it was cut from, and on a panel this large the difference between two hides is\nthe most visible it gets anywhere in the range.

A 13 inch MacBook is smaller than either pattern and will move around inside; for that size the Macbook Organiser is the piece built for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWill it scratch my MacBook?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The lining is suede across the whole interior, so the surface your laptop touches is soft on both faces. The magnet is sealed inside the leather rather than fastened through it, which means no metal ever reaches the aluminum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eHow does the flap stay closed?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is a magnet inside the leather of the flap.

The back of the case has a full-length pocket for papers and a notebook, and there are 2 card slots behind the front flap for an ID or a badge.
