Flak Jacket 3.0 is designed for schools and organizations that demand more from a laptop case. Combining rugged impact protection with practical storage, it helps keep devices, chargers, paperwork, and everyday essentials together while standing up to the bumps, drops, and daily demands of student life.
Inside, layers of high-impact foam and corrugated structural reinforcement work together to absorb and disperse impact energy, helping protect devices where they're most vulnerable. The result is exceptional protection in a lightweight design that travels easily between classrooms, buses, lockers, and home.
An integrated front accessory pocket keeps chargers, cables, mice, and other essentials organized, while the rear document pocket provides quick access to papers and folders without opening the main compartment. Whether carried by its padded handles, worn with the included shoulder strap, Flak Jacket 3.0 delivers dependable protection without unnecessary bulk.
Available in multiple sizes to fit today's most popular Chromebooks, MacBooks, and laptops, Flak Jacket 3.0 continues to be one of Higher Ground's most trusted solutions for education.

“The Higher Ground Vert 3.0 has become the bag of choice for our Nampa Personalized Learning Device. It provides a great carrying experience with lots of device protection. We first tried a Dell branded device sleeve for our device deployment. We found it wasn’t holding up to the demands put on it by the students. We need a better solution and we found that Higher Ground gear bags provided a much better experience and protection for nearly the same cost. The student feedback is positive and the students still using the first round sleeve want to move to the Higher Ground Vert 3.0 bag.”

Not long after tablets became popular recreational devices, they began appearing as effective learning tools in schools. If your school uses tablets or iPads, consider purchasing Higher Ground's protective tablet covers to safeguard your investment.
Since 2002, Higher Ground has manufactured high-quality covers for education technology. Founded by a college educator and his former student, Higher Ground gives schools and students peace of mind about technology in the classroom.
Your school deserves cases that deliver on the protection and functionality they guarantee. When you choose Higher Ground, your devices will be protected with quality, market-leading solutions. Each product receives meticulous testing to ensure peak performance along with Higher Ground's uncompromised standards in service and manufacturing. If your device requires a custom fit or solution, Higher Ground can help with that, too.
Educational tablets, particularly iPads, can represent a significant investment, making protection essential. Obtaining durable tablet cases should be the first step in safeguarding your investment.
Many of today's tablets feature thinner profiles and more glass, increasing the risk of damage. This risk grows when products are in the hands of small children. Repairing tablets take time and money that schools or students can't always afford to lose. Higher Ground covers help reduce the chances of encountering these frustrations.
All Higher Ground cases meet the same high standard for shock absorption with TPU construction and edges that go well beyond the device's, ensuring incredible drop-protection. Some models include a built-in stand for easier viewing and typing, which is particularly useful for children in earlier grades.
Higher Ground's products come with a raised bevel, which sits slightly above the glass screen to cushion it in the event of a face-first drop. These protective tablet covers are specially made with sound channels that redirect and amplify audio from the sides to the front, where the sounds belong.
What really sets Higher Ground's PROTEx cases apart is how incredibly easy they are to hold and comfortable they feel in the hand. PROTEx ergonomic cases are equipped with a comfortable, silicone X-strap on the back, giving both educators and students a convenient way to hold and operate the tablet in a worry-free way.
Higher Ground would be proud to equip your devices with the protection you deserve. When you reach out to our customer service team, you will work with helpful individuals who will answer your questions and assist you in finding the perfect solution for your school or classroom needs.
