Consider Taipan skin the slickest defense against scratches and excessive wear, hand-sewn to fit your laptop like snake skin. Clean, slightly ruggedized lines, premium YKK(R) zippers, not those cheapo zippers you'll find on other sleeves, and booqs 5-year warranty, make Taipan skin the first choice for free-range skinless laptops. Booq is a privately-held family company that was started in 2002 with a belief in fostering creative ambition. We feel that truly ambitious ideas are required to make the world a better place, and booq wants to help move those big ideas wherever they need to go. Not all truly ambitious ideas and dreams are the products of famous designers, respected thinkers and accomplished innovators, but of entirely unknown, unpublished individuals with a strong passion for being first, challenging the status quo, and pushing big ideas to see the light of day. This is why booq believes in the next generation of creative thinkers and it is why we strive to create excellent ways to contain and carry their most ambitious ideas.
