I'm looking for a nice 11x17 portfolio case. Not looking for an old-school-black-zip-around kind of thing. Any good suggestions? Thank you!

If at all possible, don't use a case, and don't make your portfolio 11x17; try to make a nice, understated printed piece and let the work speak for itself.

@monospaced,
I bought an 11x17 pina zangaro frosted pvc case simply for the covers alone... They're not too flashy/glossy and I never had any complaints about them. I substituted the polypropylene sleeves for a dull-gloss stock for the interior. The screw-post binding just made it easy for me to swap work in/out. The book itself was always well recieved. Whether or not people laughed at me behind my back well... I guess I never treated it as if it was some sacred object only to be browsed at and viewed with pincers and behind a pane of glass.

11x17???? don't puss out go for 13x19! This size is awesome! You can have your 11x17 and eat it too!
- and BEWARE of too many little rings. I have found on the aluminum case I first had, the pages don't flip smoothly with tons of binder rings! and when the get caught in the middle of an interview...you look like an assclown!AMOK
- tons of those binder rings. And there is nothing more embarassing that having to wrestle with a page in the middle of the interview.AMOK
- middle of an interview. You end up looking like an ASS CLOWN!AMOK
- Well you could realise that your fly is open and you dangle has been out the entire interview. I'm pretty sure that'd be worse.skref
