If anyone wants to buy this, can’t they just make one from an old sweater or something?

Wow, you guys are slow. By the time this thing gets around, their limited stock will probably already be gone. The Herringbone Green and Blue look nice.

Why not save $12 and carry your iPod around in an old sock?

Aaaahahahahaha! That’s really cool!
Dig the colours man, I’ll take mine in cow, please.
I suppose you could sew your own little bag and that a lot of people already have. But these aren’t expensive, and saves you the effort of having to learn how to sew.

These look like mini-teletubbies sleeping bags if you ask me.

Some people…
I think they look great. I’d buy one if I hadn’t already forked out money for a case. Personally, I’d rather have a case that is hand-made opposed to something that is mass-produced in a factory. I’m sure there is a lot of time and thought put into these sleeves, great work.

I had to laugh when reading some of these comments. Don’t we take ourselves seriously eh? I especially loved the comment about having a cover thats hand made and not mass produced, how utterly pious is that ? What the hell do they think the ipod is something lovingly toiled over by craftsmen ? ( although I like to think that of mine- heh heh) look around lovey everyone has got one.

Triggg, I realize the iPod itself is madd produced in a factory, but you have to admit, it’s an expensive item and I’d like the most care for it.

iPods are in this fall.
Fur (faux or real) is in this fall.
Makes sense to me.
