jcrew-ipod.jpgA friend at work came in today with a rather interesting "iPod case":http://jcrew.com/catalog/multiProduct.jhtml?ids=prod67004791,prod66991791 -- one that she got from "J. Crew":http://jcrew.com. Available for $29.99, in yuppie-rific "blue, green and pink":http://jcrew.com/catalog/blowupPopup.jhtml?id=prod67004791&colorCode=WV7244. Here is the description: bq. Made from the same pure Italian silk as our ties. With leather. Clear vinyl screen cover; removable neoprene-lined flap for extra protection. Leather-covered metal belt clip. This strikes me as odd, since J. Crew is hardly in the business of crafting leather cases for consumer electronics. But, perhaps it just illustrates what a cultural icon the iPod has become.

Oddly, I couldn’t find these from the jcrew site itself (unless i was looking in the wrong place, but i looked everywhere). i had to follow your link… sadly the stripes make them kind of ugly, in my opinion.
