We’ve seen these book style cases before for the iPads but this is the first time I’ve seen one for the MacBook and MacBook Pro lines. Twelve South makes this stylish leather bound case for the MacBook and MacBook Pro called the BookBook. What I really love about this case is that it isn’t just a regular leather bound case. Instead, the BookBook imitates the look of a classically bound leather hardback book and even has a “weathered” look to it that adds a touch of class to it. Because of this, no two BookBook cases are ever the same according to Twelve South. Your MacBook and MacBook Pro is safely concealed inside with a velvety soft interior and secured with very strong elastic straps. On top of that, the BookBook also zips close for added security and protection. When closed, its pretty difficult to distinguish it from that of a regular book which is perfect for those who don’t want to draw attention to their precious MacBook enclosed within.
You can purchase the BookBook for $79.99 (13″ & 15″ models) or for $99.99 (17″ models). For a limited time, Twelve South is even offering free shipping in the United States.
Product Description
BookBook is a one-of-a-kind, hardback leather case designed exclusively for MacBook Pro. Available in Classic Black or Vibrant Red, BookBook brings three levels of security to your prized Mac. First, the hardback cover and spine provide solid protection from the rigors of the road. Second, the vintage book design disguises MacBook for superior security. And third, the stylish case protects you from being like everyone else because BookBook is totally original, just like you.
Hardback cover softens the blows.
Protecting your MacBook is a top priority and it’s job one for BookBook. Slip your Mac inside the velvety soft, padded interior. Zip it closed and your baby is nestled between two tough, rigid leather hardback covers for a solid level of impact absorbing protection. The rigid spine serves as crush protection for an additional line of defense. BookBook creates a hardback book structure that safeguards your MacBook like few other cases can. Far better than any floppy neoprene bag ever will. End of story.
The real story. No two are alike.
Each BookBook is brought to life with hand craftsmanship and distressing, ensuring no two are exactly alike. From dual zippers with leather pulls, that at first glance look like bookmarks, to the sturdy reinforced hardback covers, BookBook is a vintage work of art built to protect modern day Macs. Along with classic looks, BookBook was designed to use as a traditional sleeve or to work while connected via elastic corner clips. Those dual zippers give you the option to charge your MacBook while it safely stays inside BookBook. This case is designed with good looks and smart functionality, cover to cover.
BookBook is the perfect disguise.
One of the neatest features of BookBook is the stealthy security it delivers. No one will see your MacBook when it’s tucked inside BookBook, even when it’s right under their nose. Sitting on a coffee table, dorm room or desk, BookBook looks like a vintage piece of literature, not an expensive laptop. It’s a great disguise and a simple way to reduce the risk of your MacBook getting stolen.
