“When I purchased the iPad® Pro with its Smart Keyboard™, and Pencil; my first thought was how to safely transport it, especially without losing the Pencil or Pencil charger cap. So, my mission was the dual purpose of designing a protective sleeve for the Pro and a safe home for the Pencil.”
– Colonel Littleton
The result is the No. 8 Pocket handcrafted in our dry-milled leather. Super soft and with inside dimensions of 9 ¼” H x 12 ¾” W, it fits the iPad Pro® like a glove with or without the keyboard. Carry it alone or in your briefcase. A 2 ⅛” x 7” snap pocket on the back conveniently holds the Apple Pencil or other stylus-type pens. After road-testing the No. 8 Pocket for a couple of months, I can tell you it works well for the ole Colonel. Hope you like it as much as I do.
Front may be personalized with three initials on the brass oval plate. Product packaging includes a protective drawstring cotton canvas dust bag and gift box.
This leather pocket is sized to accommodate the Apple iPad® Pro 12.9 inch model with Smart Keyboard™ or Magic Keyboard® (2021), Microsoft Surface Pro® 3 and 4 as well as other similarly sized tablets.

No. 8 Leather Pocket for iPad® Pro and other Tablets - Vintage Brown 
We are committed to producing quality, handcrafted products that showcase our time-honored standards of excellence and deep respect for the Americana tradition. Col. Littleton products go through rigorous testing and numerous quality inspections before being shipped to our customers. Should you receive a Col. Littleton product that is defective in materials or workmanship, you can count on us to make it right. Our guarantee is limited to the cost of the product itself. It also does not cover normal wear and tear. We feel if you just plain “wore it out,” you got your money’s worth. Also, we cannot be responsible for an item which has suffered through alteration, damage due to improper cleaning, improper use, mishandling or accident. If we made a mistake in personalizing your product or if the product is defective in materials or workmanship, of course we’ll replace it. Otherwise, personalized products are not returnable.
Leather is a passion for me. There are more kinds of leather and leather processing out there than you can shake a stick at. You can mold leather into just about any shape or form. You can make every hide look just alike. You can dye it green, blue or even pink. You can apply a finish, coat it, spray it or make it look slick and shiny. That’s not what we’re about at Col. Littleton. To me the beauty is in the naturalness of the leather. People always comment to me about the special “feel” of our leather and how it becomes even more beautiful after it has some wear on it. It’s all about our leather process. When you buy Col. Littleton leather goods, you’re buying, for the most part, full-grain American vegetable-tanned steerhide that has received a minimum of alteration. We don’t apply a finish to hide character markings. The way I see it, every marking tells a story and covering them robs the piece of its life and character.
I see a real resurgence in the country today for products made in America. Our focus is to design and create products that speak to the time-honored traditions that have made this country great such as handmade craftsmanship, authentic rich leathers and quality workmanship. There’s a nostalgic feel about the products we make . . . most of them could have been made 100 years ago and many are made using turn-of-the-20th-century methodology and machinery. Our products are true Americana; forged as our forefathers intended by people who care and take pride in making a beautiful product.

Exceptionally impressed with the No. 8 Leather Pocket. It is the perfect size for my 13″ MacBook. And the leather scent reminds me of my youth on the farm. Always grateful with my Colonel Littleton products. My first was bought at an antique store and when I visited the Colonel’s website the inventory grew. All the items purchased, from the briefcase to all the accessories, are of such high quality I get compliments all the time on them. Even the pencils are the best ever. But what really has me drawn to the Colonel are his staff. Helpful, courteous, and beyond accommodating. In the end, the Colonel has great products and exceptional staff. A great American company.
Thank you for your kind words, David! We’re so glad you’re enjoying the No. 8 Pocket and hope it serves you well for years to come.
Received my No. 8 tablet portfolio as a Father’s Day gift this year – gave my daughter’s specific instructions. This was my 2nd Colonel product; business partner gave me No. 18 as a gift and I absolutely love it. Need both to carry my iPad Pro 12.9 because sometimes I need with the smart keyboard and others just the tablet. Either way, these two are perfect!
Recently was blown away after making a special trip to Lynnville so I could see first-hand all the Colonel’s products – if you have the opportunity, make the trip!
Received my leather pocket for my iPad Pro 12.9 today. It is great quality and it fits my iPad with the magic keyboard perfectly. Would highly recommend this product to all.
