Microsoft's Surface Pro lineup, now expanded to include the refreshed Pro 7, features slim, light devices. It's understandable why you'd want to keep your Pro in pristine condition, and a sleeve is a popular solution. We've rounded up a bunch of the best right here that will provide some stylish protection for your device.
Premium design
WaterField's products are handmade to a high standard in San Francisco, and the Dash is no different. It's made of ballistic nylon for impressive, but lightweight durability and a water-resistant coating keeps out unplanned weather. The inside is lined with compression foam to keep your Pro safe, and it's secured with an elastic strap. Grab it in a vertical or horizontal orientation.
Extra drop protection
Are you worried about drop damage? The tomtoc 360 sleeve has thick padding around all four corners instead of just along the sides. It's all wrapped up in a sturdy zippered pocket with room for a Pro and an attached Type Cover. A smaller zippered pocket on the outside holds smaller accessories, and you'll be able to choose from more than a few different colors and designs.
Slim design
This lightweight sleeve opts for a magnetic flap rather than a zipper, allowing it to remain about as thin as possible. It's made up of composition leather on the outside with a microfiber interior, giving it a bit of weather resistance while reducing the threat of scratches. A pouch on the back holds additional documents or your phone, and it can be had in three different colors.
Affordable protection
This Evecase sleeve is the most affordable option in our roundup, yet it's far from cheap. It's made up of water-resistant material to protect against damage while outdoors, and it includes two zippered pockets. The main pocket is padded for your Pro, while the outside pocket has space for your smaller documents and accessories.
PU leather finish
MoKo's sleeve likewise keeps things affordable, but it's more geared to the boardroom crowd, thanks to a sharp PU leather construction. It has a sizeable magnetized flap to hold your Pro in place, and the inside is lined with felt to prevent scratches. It's slim, it's lightweight, and it even has a dedicated Surface Pen holder along the side.
Plenty of colors
These ProCase sleeves come with a handle on top for convenient carrying, and they're available in seven different colors and designs to fit your style. The main zippered pocket is lined and padded to prevent scratches and bumps, and an additional pocket on the side will hold your phone or smaller accessories.
Designed for the Pro
The Sleeve Plus from Brenthaven Collins has a lifetime warranty and is available in a couple of different colors. Its zippered pocket is lined with cotton to protect your device, and the chambray exterior is accented with vegan leather. Dedicated pockets for the Surface Pen and Mouse make it a perfect companion for your Pro.
If we're making some suggestions
We've long been fans of what WaterField Designs creates for Surface products, and the Dash Sleeve is a perfect example. Each one is handmade from quality materials in San Francisco, and you get a lifetime limited warranty to help swallow that relatively steep price. Choose your Pro model, choose a color for the ballistic nylon exterior, and choose between horizontal or vertical orientation. It's a custom fit, but it has enough room inside for a Surface Pro and Type Cover.
The outside of the Dash is covered with a water-resistant coating to better protect against rain, and the inside has foam padding that can help your Pro fare better in the event of an accidental drop. An elastic loop folds over the top of the sleeve to keep your Pro in place, and there's a zippered pocket on the back for other small accessories. If you opt for the vertical orientation, you will also get a dedicated Surface Pen slot.
If you're not looking to spend as much, but you still want excellent protection, the tomtoc 360 (opens in new tab) is no doubt a better choice. It has thick padding around all corners rather than just along the edges, which offer robust protection against accidental drops. The main zippered pocket has a soft lining to prevent scratches, and the outer zippered pocket has room for your smaller accessories. Choose from a few different designs and colors to best match your style.
