Apple iPod Socks

Pros and Cons

Written by AP

Oct 20, 2008

The socks are cute, but they have their ups and their downs.
Pros:
-cute
-match ALMOST every outfit
-offer protection (not much, but enough for me)
-great for winter when your iPod gets cold then gets your hand cold. Not anymore!
-hide your iPod when you don't want it to be seen

Cons:
-expensive
-don't offer hardcore protection
-get messed up when they've been washed and dried
-not very practical

Although I like these, they are a waste of money; especially with the economy like it is right now.

While I was looking around te apple website for a case for my ipod shuffle, I found these socks. I really wanted a case for my ipod to protect it because I LOVE music and loosing or destroying my ipod will be terrible. So I thought of these socks but I think they will be to big for my ipod so apple PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEE make a case for ipod shuffle. And for Apple these ipod socks are a good idea for keeping our ipod safe but I think it is a bit to expensive and please make a case for ipod shuffle.

Pretty good- room for improvement

When I got my classic ipod, I also got these apple ipod socks to protect my ipod at the pool when lounging. But every time I want to change the song I have to take it out and do it all over again. Also, with a nano, you have to put it in upside down. The socks are cute and fun but don't have the protection element my ipod needs.

I have been using these socks for a while on my 5th gen 60gb black ipod with great results seeing as I really abuse my old ipod. I found the socks don't really protect against everything but they will stop harsh things like keys, coins and other touch metal object but the socks themselves do scratch the metal backs to the ipods and don't stop small marks to screens and such.

I have recently upgraded to a 80gb classic and will carry on using these to protect my ipods but they are a little overpriced for a life span of a few months of constant use but you can't expect something made of fabric to protect 100% against everything.

In my opinion I suggest using these if you carry your ipod in your pocket but if you want quick access to all the buttons and such then you will be better off buying a real case that gives you access to all your options, buttons and such. I use my ipods a lot and I'm not to worried about them getting marked or damaged to much.

This is a great product if you like to listen to group of songs for awhile becasue it gets annyoing taking the ipod out and putting it back in. Its also great that they come in colora but if you change the song on your ipod alot you would have to keep taking it in and out then this is not the product for you.

Stylish and Modern, But...

Written by TC from Sacramento

I hope this helps in your decision to buy this product:

Pros: There are a number of different, colorful socks to slip over your ipod, depending on what you may be wearing that day. If you are in a hurry to get somewhere, and you have a tendency to be slightly clumsy with your Ipod (like me) you just slip on the sock and sprint out the door. I find the vibrant colors with their accents at the top of the sock modern, youthful, and very stylish. Did i mention they stretch to fit the nanos (except for the brand-new ones that just came out this year) the classic ipods, AND the iphone and ipod touch. Bliss, right?

Cons: Well, Despite everything previously mentioned, There are a few cons to these socks. I guess it always bothered me slightly that everytime you want to change the song, you have to keep removing the sock and then putting it back on. However, I used to have a classic Ipod and I eventually got used to the general location of where the click wheel should be, so I learned to change the volume, re-wind, fast-forward, and pause the Ipod without the need to constantly remove the sock. But just so recently, I received the Ipod touch as a gift, and there is no click wheel. And perhaps that may seem frustrating to some. So i only recommend this product if you have the classic ipods, or the not-so-new nanos/mini's. If you, like me, just got the Ipod touch/Iphone for your birthday, for the holidays, or just for the heck of it, I'd get that other protective case that still shows the screen, but hugs the ipod and keeps it sleek and slim without all the unwanted-bulk.

....hmmm

There can be 2 different views to these....they are stylish and nice, but they don't work the best for the 3rd generation nanos (or any other ones).The only ipods they really work for are the 1st & 2nd generations of the nano and the 1st generaation of shuffle.They are also useful for carrying other things like cellphones,or other little items.I like them because they are use able for other things which it would be more useful for.

Good and Bad

Written by TL

Dec 9, 2007

This product for an Ipod is a great idea. It keeps your Ipod snug, keeps it from getting scratched when you drop it, and also protects it from sliding out considering that it's not very easy to get back out. But on the negative side, it's pretty pricy ($30), It does take a while to get out, what if you wanted to listen to a song and your battery has only enough juice for one more song and the next song already starts?, and it also doesn't let you click the buttons while it's inside the safety sock. Other than the negatives, this is a great item!

These socks are cute, warm and sylish, but they can cause some problems too. When my daughter bought them for me for my birthday, the first thing i thouhgt was, "wow, these are cute!" but now after having them for a while, i can see their defults...
Its hard to get your iPod out when you need it. As you continue to use them, they get old and ragged, so after about a year of use, they need to be replaced.
But, they are cute...

Apple iPod Socks

Work with iPhone.

Written by CH from Fort Wayne

Oct 26, 2007

I had these for my iPod video, the first one and these were pretty awesome. Then I got rid of that and got my 4 GB iPhone (yeah before the price drop) and these work pretty well with the iphone. The only problem is a little bit of the iphone sticks out at the top of the sock. Before I though about using these for my iPhone I was using a sunglass case to hold my iPhone so this is a step up from that. To sum this review up, good for iPods if you don't mind not seeing the screen and ok for iPhone if you don't mind the little bit of the phone hanging out at the top.

iPod nano generation 3

Written by SP from WAKE FOREST

Oct 14, 2007

The iPod sock is cute, colorful, and really soft. The only thing that I disliked, was that my iPod nano generation 3, sunk to the bottom, and the sock does not fit, like I thought it would. Length wise, it struggles to stay in the sock. Although on every other iPod it works out great! It works well to keep my iPod safe and protected

this case is ok apart from that it is a tad 2 tight for the original 80gb ipod vide - i also think this case has worn its colour a bit after use (the blue one at least) and this case (i think) has scratches the ipods inner click wheel (the button) and the reflective back AND the outer ipod on the front. AAANNNDDD may i add they are well expensive. its ok tho...

Cool but not user friendly

Written by MR from Dennis Port

Sep 24, 2007

They have bright colors and are soft to hold, but you can't see the screen or use the click wheel, so when you want to do something as simple as lower the volume, you have to take the iPod out of the case.
