Research and Design
Since the brand's inception in 1997, Incase has led the industry in soft construction protective carrying cases and is now expanding the line to include hard case goods. "The core background of our designers is in hard case construction," explains Incase Design Director Markus Diebel. "We saw an opportunity to offer better hard cases for Apple products than what is currently on the market; to do so we're using our expertise in industrial design and research-driven product development to create the best hard cases available. From soft cases to hybrids to this introduction of full-fledged hard cases, we've grown our product offerings organically as we've researched and developed the right composite materials. Our goal is to always deliver our customers cutting-edge design and superior protection."
Hardshell Case
Available for MacBook and MacBook Pro 15" and 17" in four translucent, frosted soft-touch coated colors-Black, White, Plum and Red, the Hardshell Case features precise notebook port cutouts, allowing for easy-access to all control features (magnetic power cable, headphone and microphone inputs, CD ROM drive, battery level check button and peripheral connections).
