Shaun Jackson Design also told MacNN that it will also soon offer a leather version of the Laptrap detailed with refined all metal hardware. It will function just the same as the popular current version of the Laptrap, but will be "well appointed for the business professional."

estimated price for the Leather Laptrap will be around $190.
