Hello Stylers,

I have been hunting for a product like the attached (sorry for the poor image) that I cannot find anywhere. It is, as you can see a ridiculously thin document folio - enough to hold an 11" MBA, some papers, and a pen. That's all.

I find this style elegant, and very much unlike the dunhill or coach models that proliferate.

Any guidance on where I can get this would be seriously appreciated.

This model is German. It is no longer available.

Although not cheap, SAB has what you are looking for.

You are right - SAB's Westminster 1 is a single-gusset document case, that is very elegant. However, it is also much broader and deeper at 16" x 2.5" than I hope for.

I should like something no more than 1.5" x 15" - that I could slip a Macbook Air (11" model) and a few pieces of A4 into.

Thanks most kindly for the suggestion - those are gorgeous cases.

That's gorgeous. I've contacted them, to see if they can fit an 11" version. I wonder if there are different sizes?

If you like it then BUY IT. Only you should be involved in such decisions - it does not matter one jot to anyone here.

Did you buy a portfolio yet? You cited the Coach portfolios in your original post. Mine is in perfect condition and I'd like to sell it:
