    So I finally got a V7 DT X7 to replace my MSI GS70. One of the first things I'm noticing is that Aorus doesn't include a nice snug sleeve with their laptop. As I take mine on business trips and vacations I want a sleeve. Something in neoprene or other protective material, without being too bulky would be nice.

    Any suggestions?

    AORUS’s own neoprene sleeve. Mine is the X5 version.

    There is an X7 version also.

    And that is exactly the answer I was looking for. I checked Aorus website before and didn't see them. I'll look again. Thanks!

    So, found the sleeves. Under Accessories and then under Backpacks, no wonder I missed them the first time. Now the fun part: you can't order from Aorus. They have no retailers where I'm at, and they only list four online shops. None of whom carry the sleeve. I reached out to HID and Donald was only able to find them in Australia. He's checking further availability for me.

    May have to go with a generic sleeve on my $3k laptop! o_O
