i've found it to be a great challenge to find attractive airtag keychains that will keep it from getting scratched. was curious which ones you guys have found.

here are the 2 that i ordered. i'm quite happy with both, but would love to see some other ones!

this one is just gorgeous!

I like the leather one from Etsy link. Looks classy and durable.

The TPU clear case will probably discolor (turn yellow) over time.

yea, it looks great. i'm hoping it will age well.

the second one may, but it's much cheaper, so i'm not super worried about that. besides, i can pretend it was intentional :))
 
I used this for my airtag and it works great ... the fit was tight which is good

it looks nice, i like that it has two ring holes. but it doesn't cover the tag though, right?
 
Alexandr with the leather case do you notice the sound being muffled any since the Airtag is fulled enclosed?

Does this leather case seem to be more compact than Apple’s leather case (or 3rd party), or about the same?

that is a great question! i just tested it to see, and to be honest — yes, it gets quieter a bit, but i think it's still audible enough! i haven't actually played around with apple's case, as i want something that will prevent the tag from getting scratched up, hence the two choices. :)

Not as great as the Apple one. But you get 3 for less than than one from Apple.

Good fit, solid and decent enough for its purpose. Great value/purpose ratio.
One side open to still hear it’s sound.

However I do like the look of your leather one.

Seeing the lower image in your Post brought to mind the people I’ve seen who have stretched ear lobes. I wonder if anyones mounted an AirTag in their earlobes yet 🤔

Actually down half price since I ordered. Even AliExpress milks early adaptors.
The small blue keychain is from the same page.

Unlike my Apple WatchBands the AirTag Hermes knock of actually is lacking a ton of detail. But it feels good enough, super soft.

Following too - I’m also looking for a loop style that fits my key; I don’t want a metal ring around it. I don’t keep anything attached to my key but I’d be willing to try out something for keeping track of it, as long as it could lay flat and not have a metal ring perpendicular to the key body.

Closest I’ve found is the Belkin loop style with the pull through rope, but hoping to find something slightly higher quality.

yea, i get where you're coming from with not wanting the perpendicular ring... that's a tough one. i guess i never even tried getting away from that. i already have a fob and a key on it, i figured — what's an extra keychain? :)

Well that key has only a hole so looks like a ring is the only option. Which I presume is the case for most keys, just how the cookie crumbles for me to find something I have to be difficult about. :p

By the way I think in my head, the design of that keychain holder is almost perfectly what I’m looking for. Just needs to drop the metal ring, allow the loop to unclasp and maybe extend the loop out 2 more inches for some flexibility.
