iPod socks? Case? How do you protect YOUR iPod?

Posted: 12/30/06 at 12:42am

Got an iPod for Christmas and I hate the little excuse of an iPod cover that comes with it.

What do you use to cover/protect YOUR iPod?

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

An acrylic case with a belt clip. It's very nice and covers my iPod nicely. :)

I bought an acrylic case, but am now searching for something to put it in. Perhaps a little bag with a drawstring? Every time I put my Ipod in my bag, the acrylic case collects dirt and fuzz from my bag.

I actually keep mine in an case meant for sunglasses. It's not the kind that's shaped like a pair of glasses...it's just a rectangular case. It's actually the perfect size for my ipod, the earbuds, and my itrip, plus the charger. (If I don't keep everything in one place, I'll lose it!)

I had one of those see through plastic covers, but it seemed to get in the way everytime I wanted to charge it, so I took it off. It did, however, prevent it from getting scratched.

I use this case called an ifrogz case, and it protects my iPod really well. It comes with a clear sticky thing to put over the screen and click wheel, and you can get a decorative wheel cover and then the rubbery (I don't remember what it is) case. The whole thing together is about $30, and comes with a clip to screw on, which is fantastic.

iFrogz.com, I believe it is.

I knitted my iPod a couple different socks. It's very fashionable now.

I have a black leather case that has a falp over it and it also has a belt clip.

"I use an iSkin-the iCondom. It works very well."

I use that too, but there's a very thin part (made of the same material) that covers the screen, so it gets kind of annoying.

I had a clear silicone one, that after a month became purplish and really dirty looking. Now I have a blue leather one, I believe it's called Pacific Design. It has a cover flap and belt buckle.

Some crap thing I bought at a street fair in NY a year ago. It is like a leather case thing- but hey it works!

I had a black silicone case with a piece of plastic for the screen that was a freebie from Johnny Walker. But I eventually got a pink leather case from Banana Republic. Then I decided not to use a case at all. Consequently my ipod broke.

P.S.: Be cool, make your own sock if that what you want...just find an old tube sock or go buy an inexpensive one of your fancy. Measure so it fits your ipod, cut and sew.

Use a sharp pocket knife to remove the part covering the screen.

iFrogz are TOO cute. Having trouble picking one. I know I want the face to be brown. (Very into browns with pinks or blues right now, though I am afraid the pink looks much like neapolitan ice cream.) Which one do you like?

I like 6 and 3!! Also, if 3 came in pink, that'd be cute too. And I don't think it's too neopolitan or anything.

I have a little pink leather monogram Coach carrier that I got a Coach outlet store. It was only like, $40 and it's really durable and easy to clean. It comes with a little keychain that you can hook onto your bag.

They're also up on ebay for half the price of what they'd be in retail stores.
