How to Use

Gently slide your 13-inch laptop into the sleeve's opening. Ensure the device is centered to allow the padded edges to provide maximum protection. The sleeve is designed for a snug fit to prevent the device from shifting during transit. For the best fit, it is recommended to use this sleeve with a "naked" laptop or one with an ultra-thin skin rather than a bulky hardshell case.

Care & Safety

Due to the delicate nature of the traditional silk and metallic weaving, avoid contact with sharp objects, jewelry, or rough surfaces that may snag the intricate threads. Keep the sleeve away from direct moisture, oils, and prolonged exposure to intense sunlight to preserve the vibrancy of the dyes and the luster of the metallic weave. If cleaning is required, please consult a professional cleaner specializing in delicate silk textiles.
