Beautiful iPad cover by Kenton Sorenson Leather Products
26 MAY 2010 | Posted By: Jamie
On my never ending quest for stunning cases for my technology obsession, the new iPad case by Kenton Sorenson Leather was a breath of fresh air. The cases look extremely simple, almost toooo simple, but that's the juxtaposition, the latest technology in what appears to be an old-world wrapping. The leather is going to age beautifully in time, the question however remains of whether it will it stop the screen smashing if accidentally dropped while carrying under your arm on your fixie... sorry, didn't meant to go there...
What I also love about these products are that the Wisconsin native Kenton Sorenson actually cuts and sews each natural leather piece by hand in his workshop. As stated on the website "Each iPad Portfolio is oiled and conditioned with beeswax and finished with a heavy linen thread side stitch. Kenton's 4oz leather strap closure combines form and function. The strap can be wrapped around to keep the portfolio open while in use, or looped to a close." Tight.
Some point to ponder before purchase:
Hand made in Wisconsin
4oz Vegetable Tanned Leather
Oiled and conditioned with beeswax
10" X 7.5" X .5"
I have mentioned how much I love
Hard Graft as well, but this is giving it a serious run for it's money! If you want to see more iPad covers, check our feature on them
