“I decided to put my old jeans to a good use and make an iPod case, I wanted to keep the coolest part about jeans which is the leather label on the waistband.

Leather iPod Touch Case

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 13 Jan 2010 01:34:00 +0000

I recently started running in the mornings. However, it's annoying when it's 6 am and my mp3 player lands in a pool of goo. This instructable is my solution. My design is based on the Puuko friction sheath. The iPod slides in, but it doesn't go out.

step 1Materials and Methods
Materials: (1) piece of scrap leather (1) armband (1 yard) proper cordage [dental floss (Free, since I'm a dentist.)] Tools: leather hole punch heavy scissors (optional) needle pencil

step 2Layout
1. First, try laying out the leather around your iPod (or other mp3 player). Make sure it fits right. Leather is skin. Just like plastic surgery, each piece of leather has different tension lines. Try folding your leather in different ways to find what works best for your configurati…

step 3Cut slot
1. Punch holes at the ends of the planned strap slot. This results in a cleaner, less prone to tearing slot. 2. Cut the slot between the holes. I used my scissors for this, but you can just as easily use a scalpel or an x-acto knife. 3. (Optional) Smooth out the s…

step 4Punch holes
Punch holes along the seam that you marked earlier. Helpful details: 1. Having about 5 mm between each hole allows for a clean looking stitch, enough material to hold the seam, and close enough stitches to control the tension of the joint. 2. Allow enough space from the bottom stitch to…

step 5Stitch up
Stitch up the holes that you've made. You can use any cordage that you want to. Personally, I used dental floss. I'm a dentist, so that it's available. It's also cheap, tough (it's nylon), and waterproof. I like to start the seam with a surgeon's knot. Be sure to have equal tension with each st…

step 6Enjoy
Finally, thread in the strap and enjoy! The ipod should easily slide in, but will be tricky to slide out. The leather shapes itself as the ipod enters. Those ancient Scandanavians really knew what they were doing.

The Trouble With iPods, iPod Cases

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 08:03:00 +0000

Designed by graphic artist Debbie Ann, Hotromz iPod cases are made by hand. They come in countless colors and sizes, and no two are exactly alike. We think they bear an uncanny resemblance to the small, furry Tribbles featured in the original Star Trek series in 1967.

Vers Wooden iPod Touch Cases

Top 1 iPod touch 2G cases - InvisibleSHIELD for iPod touch

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 02:22:00 +0000

The iPod touch is turning out to be a whole lot more than just an MP3 player. With so many people using it as a web browser, gaming device, video player and more it’s no wonder that Apple recently gave it a speed and memory increase ahead of an all new iPod touch 3G that should be out next year.

As the iPod touch has so many uses, looking after it and keeping it protected is essential. There are a loads of cases available for it so I thought I’d put a quick guide together that shows off our most popular cases for the iPod touch 2G.

I’ve been a big fan of InvisibleShield for a while now and have had one fitted to my iPhone 3G since I got it on launch day last year. If you’ve never seen them before, they are a very thin, tough plastic coating that sticks to your phone. It covers both the front and back of your phone and is the best protection I’ve found if you don’t want the added bulk of a case. On the Zagg website, they attack the screen of a phone using a small drill/grinder – half of the screen was covered with an InvisibleShield the other half unprotected. Needless to say, the half that wasn’t covered was absolutely destroyed, the half that was covered was perfectly fine and not a hint of a scratch. InvisibleShields don’t use adhesive and can be removed easily if need, although you will need a little patience to fit it to your iPod touch. InvisibleShields won’t cushion your iPod if you drop it, but they do prevent scratches and fingerprints as well as add more grip to the otherwise slippery iPod touch.

Top 2 iPod touch 2G cases - Silicone Case for iPod touch

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 02:21:00 +0000

These are a great, cost effective way of protecting your iPod touch against minor knocks, bumps and fingerprints. They will cushion your iPod slightly if you drop it too. They leave the headphone socket and dock connector exposed and are moulded in a way that still allows you to access the home and volume buttons while the case is on. It won’t cover the screen though, so it’s probably worth investing in an iPod touch Screen Protector.

Top 3 iPod touch 2G cases - Krusell Music Case

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 02:20:00 +0000

The Krusell Music case is a simple, stylish leather case for both the first and second generation iPod Touch. To use it you just slide your phone in and then choose to attach a belt clip or carry it around. The case is compatible with the full range of multidapt mounting accessories, so no matter how or where you want to mount your iPod touch, you should find a clip to suit. The case is made from high quality leather and has a soft suede finish lining that helps to keep your screen free of fingerprints and smudges. The headphone and dock connector are easily accessible, and the volume controls can be used by pressing the leather on the side of the case which may makes this case better suited to the first generation iPod touch, 2nd generation iPod touch owners may prefer the Krusell Orbit Flex.

Top 4 iPod touch 2G cases - Krusell Orbit Flex for iPod touch

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 02:19:00 +0000

The Orbit Flex is a similar case to the Music case above, but with a few noticeable differences. The most obvious one being that the front flap is hinged at the bottom rather than the top and can be detached from the case if needed. It has a press stud fastening rather than magnetic and has cut outs for the volume controls too. Other than that, there isn’t much between them, they both have the clip on the back for the Multidapt clips and mounts and are both made from the same high grade leather.

Top 5 iPod touch 2G cases - iPod touch Otterbox Defender

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 02:18:00 +0000

The Defender provides hardcore protection for your iPod touch and i’s actually 3 cases in one and provides the most amount of protection. The first layer is a clear membrane that covers your screen and protects it against scratches. The second layer is an energy absorbing polycarbonate shell that draws impact damage away from your phone. Lastly is a flexible silicone skin that absorbs minor bumps and adds a non slip finish to your iPod. It does add a little bulk to your iPod touch, but if you lead an active lifestyle and want to keep it safe during sporting activities or while you’re out and about walking, hiking etc, then this is the best case you can get. All buttons are accessible, as are the headphone and dock connectors – although there are silicon plugs included if you want to protect these too.

Top 8 iPod touch 2G cases - XtremeMac Sportswrap iPod touch 2G Armband

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 02:12:00 +0000

If you use your iPod touch while you’re down at the gym, out cycling or doing any other kind of physical activity, then you’ll know how frustrating it is having your iPod jumping around in your pocket. Cases with a belt clip aren’t great either as they slow you down, fall off and can be uncomfortable while you’re exercising. Fortunately there is a solution – armband cases. While it may seem a little unusual, it’s the perfect place for your iPod while you’re working out. They hold your phone securely, protect it from moisture and this one even has a cord wrap so that you won’t have the earphone cable getting tangled up with your arms as you’re running. It’s made from Lycra and Neoprene (the same stuff as wetsuits), can be adjusted to fit any arm and the clear cover doesn’t interfere with the touch screen of the iPod touch.

Top 9 iPod touch 2G cases - OtterBox Impact for iPod touch 2G

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 02:09:00 +0000

While it’s not quite as heavy duty as the OtterBox defender, the OtterBox Impact still provides high levels of protection when you drop your iPod touch. The Impact series case is a silicon skin that covers the back and corners of your phone, but leaves the volume controls, home button and headphone socket easily accessible. It has extra padding on the internal corners that will absorb impact energy and divert it away from your phone. Your screen isn’t covered though, so you’ll need to invest in an iPod touch Screen Protector.

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 02:06:00 +0000

Lastly then is the crystal case. Crystal Cases, as the name suggests are crystal clear clip on covers that are designed to protect the housing of your device from scratches and absorb impact damage when you drop it. Now, crystal cases aren’t the most robust case you can get, if anything they’re probably the weakest case available, but if you drop your iPod and the case breaks, then it’s done it’s job properly – after all, I’m sure that you wouldn’t want your iPod to break and your case be intact. They’re one of the most affordable cases available which makes them extremely popular.

The Naked Case from Case-mate is a revolutionary case for iPod Touch that cover the Touch completely, including the screen, but still allow full play-through access to the iPod Touch.

The reason that the Naked case is given such a name, is because your iPod Touch will looks as if it's wearing nothing at all with the Naked case. It is an acrylic case, that make use of the patent-pending electrostatic membrane on the front of the case. The membrane will passes electrical pulses through to the iPod Touch screen, allowing the touch control to work perfectly while the Touch stays in the case. Also, there are precise cutouts on the case that allow access to all other controls of the iPod Touch.

The Naked Case is currently the only case available on the market, that provide complete coverage (including screen) to the iPod Touch, and still maintain the full play-through access. The price is currently $34.99, and it's available on Case-mate's website.
