If you are like me and you are on-the-go quite often, maybe carrying around your iPad in only a case all of the time isn’t the best solution. I prefer to have my accessories with me anytime I am away from home. Brenthaven is by far one of my favorite companies when it comes to sleeves, and carrying cases. Their products are very simple, elegant, and well-built.

I have for review the Brenthaven ProStyle Satchel, which a carrying case for the iPad, or any tablet up to 10 inches. I was immediately impressed with the overall design of the satchel. The exterior body of the bag is composed of micro-ballistic nylon fabric. One of my favorite features about the nylon material is that it’s cleanable. Most accidental spills and stains will come right off with a wet cloth.

The ProStyle Satchel has a front flap which is used to open up the bag to get into the accessory compartments. The flap features a magnetic tip for closing, simply drop down the flap and the magnets will take care of the rest. The magnets are quite strong, so you don’t have to worry about the bag opening up at random times when you are traveling.

Under the flap the ProStyle Satchel has 2 midsize pockets. These pockets are great for holding accessories for your tablet, such as: cables, pens, styluses, etc.

Looking on the top of the ProStyle Satchel, there is a large zip pocket for the iPad. The pocket is lined with a thick, padded layer of faux-fur. What is great about the pocket is that my iPad fits perfectly with my Smart Cover on!

On the back of the bag is a long, deep pocket, great for storing documents and larger accessories.

Last but not least, the nylon adjustable shoulder strap for easy carrying. One thing I did notice was that the strap did not have any sort of shoulder padding on it. However, the bag is very lightweight, so the lack of the padding didn’t seem to be a problem.

Brenthaven has been kind enough to include a nice microfiber cloth with each purchase of the ProStyle Satchel.

The ProStyle Satchel is a high quality, premium carrying case and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a carrying case in this sort of style. Many of Brenthaven’s products are featured on Apple’s website for premium bags.
