With the growing popularity of yet another electronic device will come the inevitable urge to customize and accessorize. And with the hoards of new Kindle users over the Holidays (myself included), the need for higher-end accessories will continue to grow. By far the best product on the market to date comes from Austrian-based Hard Graft, a small but very interesting team of designers of felt and leather lifestyle accessories. The U kindle Case follows the look of most of Hard Graft’s products; made from 100% premium wool felt made in Germany of fine compressed fibers, providing a soft, durable, water repellent, environmentally friendly enclosure to keep your device safe. On the outside panel, a hand-selected, vegetable tanned Italian leather pocket fits your iPod/iPhone perfectly; useful, yet also adds an appreciative touch of luxury. Another brilliant small detail is the herringbone elastic band to hold a pen or headphones, while ensuring your Kindle stays safe where it belongs. Available here.
What’s great about this U kindle Case is not that it looks so stunning, but the fact that it is part of a larger product line. The New-High collection includes Laptop/MacBook sleeves, Moleskin cases, Camera cases and various add-ons so you can bundle all your devices together. Looking solely at the overall aesthetic, the light grey Felt is perfectly accentuated by the sublte & luxurious black leather patina and Red highlights to create a standout end product.
