Impressions / Review:
The Genuine Leather Thin Sleeve for the new iPad is one of those accessories where "what you see is what you get". The New iPad slides right into the sleeve and is held in place with the magnetic strap.
Removal of the New iPad involves pulling the strap upward to bring the Apple tablet out of the sleeve, or you can just pull the New iPad out of the sleeve by reaching into it.
Xtrememac selected a nice leather material for the case which is soft but durable. The inner micro-suede material should keep the user’s New iPad safe from scratches.
The Genuine Leather Thin Sleeve for the new iPad is solidly constructed and seems like it should last for a long time or until the next version of the iPad is released. There is really nothing negative to say about this product.

For those looking for a professional way to carry one’s New iPad then the Genuine Leather Thin Sleeve from Xtrememac is a nice way to go. It is a bit on the expensive side but it is made using quality leather as opposed to the pleather material some other accessory makers use.
The Genuine Leather Thin Sleeve for New iPad is not very thick so it will mostly provide protection from dust and dirt as opposed to trauma. It is not designed to serve a dual function as a stand for instance. It’s just a nice looking well designed sleeve.
