This Sleeves give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Sadly, it's not too good.
I've been a big fan of Timbuk2 products for years now, going back to the original Commute laptop messenger, to the Commute 2, to my current Timbuk2 Command, Timbuk2 Nylon Kindle Envelope Sleeve, and I even carry a Timbuk2 Bifold Wallet.
So, I know Timbuk2 products pretty well. And this one just doesn't cut it.
Curiously, the packaging doesn't identify the sleeve as a Kindle Fire product. It does carry a "Made for Kindle" logo, but the packaging describes it as "Timbuk2 Slim Sleeve". Not a huge deal, since the Kindle Fire slides in perfectly.
The problem is the tiny strip of velcro on the sleeve. It's maybe 1.5" long by .25" wide, and leaves the top of the sleeve fairly exposed. On the Black / Gunmetal / Red sleeve, the top is the entire red...
2. Fits Keyboard Kindle
Great simple case, that not only fits the Fire, but also the newer Keyboard Kindle. If you do not want a larger case, but something simple, this Timbuk2 product is perfect (it's my third buy from Timbuk2, well made).

Perfect for the Kindle Paperwhite
This may be advertised as a Kindle Fire sleeve, but on Timbuk2's site it's billed as being a Kindle paperwhite sleeve also.
I wanted a thin low profile sleeve that I could protect my Kindle Paperwhite in when I throw it in to a backpack or messenger bag. I didn't want a folio type thing, I just want to take it out and read, then put it back for protection when needed. I looked around and couldn't find anything else that seemed to be better suited for my needs than this one. I've always been a big fan of Timbuk2 products and own a lot of them.
The Kindle paperwhite slides in perfectly. There's a tiny bit of extra room no doubt to accommodate a thicker Kindle Fire, but it's not so much that the peperwhite moves around. It does fit nice and snug.
It has some padding and a heavy nylon fabric for protection which should be more than enough to keep it projected from other things in a bag. When the velcro is closed it closes the end to a nice flush closure so...
