An iPod jacket for the white collar set

So you want to wear a jacket with integrated iPod controls to work, but you aren't exactly Tony Hawk. Enter the Koyono BlackCoat Work. It's something you could easily wear to the office, and features a hidden, five-button control pad that allows for full access to the iPod's functions. Koyono describes it as a "denim jacket/sport coat hybrid," and is one for four new iPod coats the company plans to release during the 2nd and 3rd quarters of 2006.

The BlackCoat Work will cost $179US, and you can sign up to be notified of the official release date. If they could only find a way to hide my headphones so I could wear this during staff meetings, I'd be all over it.

Customizable iJacket case for iPod

Custom iJacketBrainchild Products, LLC offers a new spin on the iPod case with the custom iPod iJacket, a customizable silicon jacket for "all version of Apple's iPod," though the latest 5G version is not on their list - yet. They offer a slew of interesting and fairly unique pre-designed cases for the iPod 4G/photo, nano, mini and shuffle, while also offering a fairly robust customizing service that seems geared towards organizations and companies who want a custom design in bulk packages of at least 50 cases. A six-step customization process is outlined with a choice between downloading a DIY design template or having Brainchild Products, LLC design the case for you. For now pricing on custom jobs is only available by phone, but pricing on individual pre-designed cases starts at just $12.99.
