I bought a designer iPod nano case for my nano 3G yesterday, and chances are you've been thinking about designer cases too. If you're only going to use your 3G nano in an armband at the gym, stop reading now. Designer cases aren't going to make sense for you.
I bought a designer iPod nano case for my nano 3G yesterday, and chances are you've been thinking about designer cases too. If you're only going to use your 3G nano in an armband at the gym, stop reading now. Designer cases aren't going to make sense for you. The rest of us are carrying our nanos with us in the car, while we're shopping, and outside in the world. We're tired of worrying about the nano getting wet, hiding it in our pocket, and just plain feeling overly geeky while walking the blocks to work. Surely there's a better plan. You might not have thought about styling up your nano. Until a couple weeks ago I hadn't either. My friend showed me his leather flip case and I knew it was time to find something special for my nano too. Decent Starters: For a quick and inexpensive dress-up, look for a fake (faux) leather flip case. They come in a lot of colors and will protect your nano from scratches. If you want to stp it up a little, try the Kroo Manhattan case. It's still faux leather, but has red topstitching to make it a little more unique. Still, not quite what I was looking for. For a step further, take a look at the cases by Cloe Dao. Edgy types might want the skull and crossbones emblem on one of her designs. Non-edgy me liked her pinstripe case in hot colors. I was looking for something a little more conservative for commuting to work -- but might try the colored case for weekend wear. Mid-Range Price and Style: For a great mid-range price, try the Sena Pullino case. The leather on this one is real and the velvet lining protects against scratches. I like the fact that the case fits the nano snugly -- some cases are just too loose. It's simple, elegant, and well-made. Two other mid-price designers to consider are Marware and Pacific Designs. They both make a good variety of multi-purposes cases. Marware even has a leather flipcase that's reasonably priced. Fashionista: If you like the glittery look (evening?) check out the Gilty Cotoure 3G nano case. It comes in silver or gold plating, with Swarovski Crystal accents. The crystal accents frame the screen and control wheel. Surprisingly tasteful and still special. If you have a 8Gb nano, this case is just slightly less than the cost of your nano. But then, you weren't concerned about that anyway were you? My favorite in this class: the difusi holder with napa leather and snakeskin. It has a magnetic closure and does a nice job of protecting the nano. I don't use belt clips, but this has one if you want to show it off on your belt. Also a plus: the price is around $40. If you own the old style (2G) nano, you have some great choices by Coach, Dior, and Prada to review. I was hoping for a Coach case for my new 3G nano, but they don't seem to have one yet. I'll look again around Christmas. What did I decide on? The Difusi holder filled the bill. It's stylish but still conservative enough for walking to work. I'll probably buy a Cloe Dao soon to showcase my fun side -- we can't let work run our lives, can we? Show your style! No matter your price range, you have options to choose from and can look like you have a 3G iPod nano designer case too. About the Author: Still undecided?
