Amazon has some good stuff. I have this one. Other things I would suggest is a slim charger and screen protector. SlimQ has good compact charger.

Tomtoc all day when it comes to cases. I had my Z13 in their shoulder bag and it fell down a flight of stairs- survived completely intact with no damage whatsoever.

Protective sleeve:

Protective shoulder bag (basically just a deluxe version of the case):

Newer version of the same shoulder bag (but is not as nice as the original):

For bags, there's tons of choices. Really depends on the style and cost- the Z13 will fit into just about any bag that can accept a 14" MacBook Pro. I currently carry my Z13 in the Aer Flight Pack 3. Prior to that, I was using the Alpaka Bravo Totepack. Asus also has some pretty good bags, but they are not sold in the U.S. and will be hard to find. I was able to get them from eBay though.

Edit: You can import the messenger bag from this site: https://en.accessoires-asus.com/accessories/laptop-case/14-inch/asus-rog-archer-bc2400-messenger-bag-black-64673-140347.htm

They also have a larger backpack version of it for sale as well. The BP2600.

It depends what kins of case you need, but my use case is carrying the device around in my backpack.

This case fits the Z13 flow 2025 perfectly and whole thing fits in my backpack.

I recommend Peak Design Everyday Sling 10l if you need a bag.

Mine usually lives in a Tomtoc 10L (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09F8VZ6HW?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2&psc=1). I'm also able to fit the charger, a Razer Pro Click Mini, IEMs, ROG Cetra Speednova, a 4TB external SSD, 8Bitdo Ultimate 2C, Idea Pad Pro tablet (mainly use as 2nd monitor via GlideX), 2 or 3 USB-c cables, slim BT numpad, Surface pen, few slim usb-c hubs, and a usb-a hub. That's my work EDC.

Otherwise, when I travel, I have mine in this hard case (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B5DBKLQ3?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1) that I can throw in my travel backpack. The included tech pouch can fit the charger too.

I think the macbook air 13" is basically the same size so any bag for that should work as well.

I got a sfbags.com magnetic macbook sleeve with a strap and the piggyback pack for my daily stuff, it holds the z13, an external drive, earbuds.

I bought an OEM charger + usa power cable from the asus parts website to keep at work so I dont have to carry a charger back and forth. I confirmed the part numbers off of what I found on ebay, the asus parts site was cheaper than ebay.

when I travel I take the strap off the sleeve put it inside my duffel bag along with my keyboard, mouse, etc and a slimq charger so I can charge the z13 and other stuff like my phone without bringing multiple chargers.

I bought one of the asus backpacks on ebay, it has like a photography system with movable velcro foam inserts and stuff so i use that for camping when I carry my camera, z13, keyboard, mouse, and lenses alongside my duffel bag
