What's in the Sleeves Range
Supply Crew stocks 27 sleeves and protective cases. The brand-name tier leads: the Bellroy Laptop Sleeve 16", tailored to be light on bulk and big on access; the Elleven Recycled 16" Sleeve with front and back zippered pockets; the Swissdigital Bolligen 14" with a patented USB charging port and integrated cable; and two Thule styles. The recycled group is unusually strong — the Rise 15.6" GRS Recycled Laptop Sleeve in 900D GRS-certified recycled polyester, the Doco Recycled 15" Felt Sleeve with an elastic closure, and the Captain Felt Carry Case in 2mm RPET felt made from recycled PET water bottles, with a zipped compartment and top carry handle. Corban & Blair supplies leather-look sleeves in 13/14" and 15/16" with secure zip closures. Beyond sleeves, the category also holds tablet protection — the rugged Newton iPad Case for harsh environments, and the Rover and Brooks Folio cases in flexible TPU that double as stands — plus the Milo Deluxe Foldable Laptop Stand with nine viewing angles.
Choosing a Laptop Sleeve
Size first, and size to the largest machine in the group. The range runs 13/14", 15", 15.6" and 16", and 15.6" covers the great majority of corporate-issue laptops. Then decide on closure: a zip gives the most security and usually adds a front pocket for a charger or notebook, while an elastic closure is slimmer and faster to use, which suits a sleeve that goes in and out of a bag several times a day. Material sets the impression — recycled felt reads soft and design-led, leather-look reads corporate, and technical polyester reads practical and hard-wearing. Finally, consider whether the sleeve travels alone or inside a bag. A standalone sleeve benefits from a carry handle and a front pocket; one that lives inside a backpack can be as slim as possible.
Sustainability and Branding
Five products carry a Recycled flag and six are flagged natural material, with genuinely specific credentials rather than general claims: 900D GRS-certified recycled polyester on the Rise sleeve — meaning the recycled content is independently verified through the supply chain — 100% recycled RPET felt, 60% recycled polyester, and recycled 600D polyester ripstop. That makes sleeves one of the easier categories in which to meet an eco procurement requirement without compromising on quality. On branding, felt and technical polyester take print and heat transfer cleanly, leather-look sleeves suit debossing for an understated finish, and embroidery works on heavier fabrics. A sleeve is a flat, unobstructed panel, so artwork can be placed generously and sits in view every time the laptop comes out.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can laptop sleeves be branded with my logo? Yes — every product in this category can be custom branded. Print and heat transfer work cleanly on felt and technical polyester, leather-look sleeves suit debossing for an understated finish, and embroidery works on heavier fabrics. A sleeve offers a flat, unobstructed panel, so your logo sits in full view every time the laptop comes out.
- What size laptop sleeve do I need? Sleeves in this range cover 13/14", 15", 15.6" and 16" laptops. For a group order where you can't check every device, 15.6" is the safest default — it fits the great majority of corporate-issue machines. Match the sleeve to the largest laptop in the group rather than the average.
- Zip or elastic closure — which is better? A zip closure gives the most security and usually comes with a front pocket for a charger, notebook or cables. An elastic closure is slimmer and quicker to use, which suits someone taking the laptop in and out several times a day. If the sleeve will be carried on its own rather than inside a bag, choose the zip.
- What is RPET felt? RPET felt is a felt fabric made from recycled PET plastic bottles rather than virgin material. The Doco Recycled Felt Sleeve and the Captain Felt Carry Case both use it — the Captain in 2mm felt with a zipped compartment and top carry handle. It looks and feels like premium wool felt while carrying a genuine recycled-content story.
- What does GRS certified mean? The Global Recycled Standard verifies recycled content through the entire supply chain, including social and environmental criteria at each processing stage. The Rise 15.6" sleeve uses 900D GRS-certified recycled polyester on the exterior — an independently audited claim rather than a supplier's assurance, which matters if your procurement team asks for evidence.
- Do you have sleeves with charging built in? Yes — the Swissdigital Bolligen 14" Laptop Sleeve includes a patented intelligent USB charging port with an integrated cable, alongside carry handles and a front zip pocket. It's the pick for staff who work between meetings and want to charge a phone without unpacking.
- What is the minimum order quantity for laptop sleeves? Most sleeves carry a minimum order quantity of 25 units, with the Corban & Blair leather-look sleeves, Captain Felt Carry Case and Milo laptop stand from 50, and the iPad cases from 100. The exact minimum order quantity is confirmed on each individual product page.
- Can I see an artwork proof before production? Yes — twice over. You can Design & Create your own mockup instantly on any product page to see your logo on the product before you even request a quote. Then, once your order is confirmed, Supply Crew provides a detailed artwork proof for your approval — placement, size and finish — before production begins.
- How long do custom laptop sleeve orders take? Custom orders typically take 2–4 weeks for production and delivery, depending on the styles selected, the branding method and order volume. Our team will confirm an exact turnaround estimate once your order and artwork are finalised — worth planning ahead for onboarding intakes.
