Alongside the release of new MacBook Pro models this morning, Apple has debuted a new Leather Sleeve accessory that fits the 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Pro with Thunderbolt 3.

The 13-inch Leather Sleeve costs $179 and the 15-inch version costs $199.

For the MacBook Pros, the new models start at $1,799 (13-inch) and $2,399 (15-inch), featuring up to six-core eighth-generation Intel Core processors, up to 32GB RAM, the Touch Bar and Touch ID, and more.

Tim Cook's Apple has brought a lot of Apple branded leather products to market. A real shame that Apple is not taking the cruelty-free route. There are plenty of other material choices and options that work better than leather at protecting phones and laptops anyway. Shame on Tim Cook.

You are joking, but don’t think for a second that marketing and design executives don’t have enough control at Apple to make that a higher priority than technical innovations.

You might have a problem with leather but most people do not.

Bring on the leather Cook!
Leather typically isn't a cruel as an industry as fur is. I dont have any moral problems with leather.

Lol these prices! Who do they think they are. Hermes of LV?

I will get one from China for 5 bucks. It may be fake leather but at least it doesn’t discolor like my nasty looking legit iPhone 7+ Brown leather case
