Any nice covers/cases for the Sage?

I'm leaning towards getting the Kobo Sage, and I'd like to ask if anyone can suggest a nice-looking, sturdy and functional (sleepcover-like) case other than Kobo's official origami one.

The only official one I see on Amazon (UK) is the folding one; I have it for the Pocketbook, and it's too flimsy to the point its corners slide very easily when I put it in my bag, resulting in the reader waking up (and part of the screen becoming exposed).
Is the Kobo's folding case similar?

The only alternative cases I can see on Amazon are kwmobile, which I don't like, as I bought one for the Pocketbook and returned it immediately as it was probably the worst quality case I've ever bought for any device... ever.

Any suggestions will be very welcome

Don't spend money on the Kobo Sage battery case. Wholly unreliable.

It's a sleeve, not a case, but I've been pretty happy with this one:

I want to keep the device as light as possible so that it doesn't fatigue my arm from holding for long periods. Since any case (especially a battery cover) is going to add substantial heft to it, I opted for a sleeve instead.

Thank you, this does look very attractive!
I do believe I still prefer a case/cover though, one that I can quickly flip close and stick it in a bag or airplane seat pocket etc.
