Nearly a year ago I reviewed the retro revival of the MacCase Classic computer case, originally designed in 1999 for the then brand-new clamshell iBook, and now offered for the 13-inch MacBook in the full range of classic iBook colors. I was impressed with both be design and workmanship of the Key Lime Classic Case we tested, but a more recent and upmarket offering from the MacCase folks takes cool and classy to an even higher level.

Like the MacCase Classic, MacCase's a new Premium Leather Flight Jacket has a retro flare as well, but this time reaching substantially further back to the era between the twentieth century World Wars when aviators wore leather flight jackets to buffer the wind-battering they got in open-cockpit aircraft and chilly temperatures at high altitudes in non-pressurized cabins. The Flight Jacket Case indeed looks like a piece of kit in which Indiana Jones - a young Indiana Jones - might have packed his gear around.
