Why Apple's iPhone Sock is a Big Deal
Apple has launched a new accessory that's raising eyebrows and sparking debates. It's not a new phone or a groundbreaking gadget, but a sock for your iPhone.
The iPhone Pocket
- Designer: Collaborated with Japanese fashion designer Issey Miyake
- Design: Knitted case that you can wear around your body
- Details:
- Limited edition
- Two sizes available
- Variety of colors
- Prices ranging from $150 to $230
The Inspiration
The inspiration behind the iPhone Pocket is quite intriguing. Miyake drew inspiration from "a piece of cloth," which is a bit abstract. The design is meant to represent the bond between the iPhone and its user.
- Material: Singular 3D-knitted construction
The Debate
Now, you might be thinking, "This is ridiculous. Why would anyone spend that much on a sock for their phone?"
- Not the First Time: Back in 2004, Apple released the iPod Socks, a similar accessory for the iPod.
