$149 WOW this is insanity.

Oh I LOVE when fashion focused products hit the MacRumors forums...

Amazing how many people crawl out from under rocks to hate on this thing and think they’re doing it in a witty way.

 

[timmodugdale]

By far, the dumbest thing I’ve seen this year. Congratulations!

 

[Simon Johansson]

Is it just me or does this look like it's inspired by Borats "mankini"?

 

[Powerbooky]

A blast from the past... iPod/iPhone socks

 

[Simon Johansson]

wait, I've seen it before…

Exactly! the original iPod sock design was better!

 

[NETim]

Would make a discrete self defense weapon. I could load it up with a handful of rocks and pretend I’m cool. Otherwise, nope.

 

[AdamHarbour]

Is it compatible with the Apple cloth or Apple Intelligence 🙄

 

[MVMNT]

3D knitted? We going to be calling jumpers 3D knitted next?

 

[sergekills]

Tim needs to go.

Completely agreed!
He lost the plot and made Apple all about happy shareholders and not the products. What a disgrace to Steve’s legacy

true, but it doesn't fit current devices 😂

I'd like a MacBook case with this material and color options. Also with an Apple logo on it. Yes, I want a first-party MacBook case to match my iPhone case.

Or… hear me out… make normal human sized phones that fit it the pockets of the clothes you’re already (presumably) wearing and don’t weight half a ton (iPhone “Air” included)

 

[Loismustdie1]

What in thee ENTIRE hell?!?

 

[boswald]

$150 for an iPhone sock in this economy? Are you kidding me?

 

[adamjackson]

I was kind of excited as Apple one-off accessories used to be really fun and cool to collect. My iPod Socks were $19.99 and I still have them in the packaging since new on my Apple Box shelf.

This is a LOT more expensive.

 

[jayducharme]

Can’t innovate anymore, my foot!

 

[CharlesShaw]

on my Apple Box shelf.

Nice reminder of why I keep reading MR. A safe space for Apple box shelves.

 

[JosephAW]

Predict this will sell less than the iPhone Air

 

[arkitect]

wait, I've seen it before…

I was just about to post that… Yup. They really nailed it!
