Desk Swag: Coasters, Sleeves and Everyday Carry

The Laptop Sleeve

A padded sleeve is the cheapest insurance you will ever buy for the most expensive thing in your bag. Choose a snug fit — a sleeve that lets the laptop slide around inside is doing half a job.

Coasters Are Not Optional

Cork-backed coasters protect the desk, sure, but mostly they mark out a workspace that someone actually cares about. Set of four, one for the guest chair.

Carry Less, Choose Better

The everyday-carry principle applies to desks too: fewer, better objects beat drawers full of almost-useful ones. If it has not earned its spot on the desk in a month, it lives somewhere else.
