I really like the look of MDPC sleeving, but their website has been "down" for months, just while they move location and take a break from work.

Lutr0 says in the GeForce garage Video that those are pretty hard too use

Depends on the style of sleeving you want the most popular ones are PET or paracord. Both are good materials to use and have good selections in color but the one thing the paracord lacks is large diamter sizes for cables such as USB and sata. 

 

Also be sure to get the tools you need before you start sleeving such as pin tools, side cutters, crimpers if you plan to make some of your own cables and a layout diagram before you start so you know where all your cables go and the coloring. 

Here's a good reference:

After using both PET and paracord I can say paracord is my preference in terms of looks but PET is much easier to work with, having fewer snags and can be inched out wider making it easier to get the cables through.

 

There's plenty of good tutorials for custom sleeving on YouTube so I would suggest watching some of those.

 

I also prefer heatshrinkless. I think it is also easier to get a clean look with heatshrinkless as you don't nee to get the heatshrink cut to exactly the same length every time.
