Maybe this did not need to be an article. Unless the authors knew that the company would get flamed and wanted to enjoy the creativity of the forum trolls.
That said, what constitutes “high-end.” Is their leather and thread different than is found elsewhere? Perhaps the leather comes from a finely aged sacred cow, indigenous to a specific remote area, and the thread is actually the fine hairs plucked from a unicorn.

Chanel: $930? Hold my beer.

And that's the cheap one.
Chanel designed a $2,700 AirPods case that’s also a... pearl necklace
Few may realize what's inside.

What do they say about a fool and his money?! 🤣
If people want to spend that kind of money so be it. But how much do these actually cost Hermes to make? $40?
More case options are great. Just like everything, the gap between entry level to high end is big.

£13.99 and looks just as tacky.
Most of the people on here that p&m about the price. Too bad they don't make a case for my earbuds.
I have yet to find a reason to buy any AirPods case, I mean after carrying them with me for a collective 6 years they have never gotten damaged. They make the case thick and heavy. Think I'll be getting an iPad Pro then instead of this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Observably false. Rich famous people get them for free. The average rich person is not famous. They buy things like to look rich or to compete with their class. And lots of rich people become poor and poor become rich.
On a lark I went into a high end store and they were selling a bag for $20,000. The bag outside design was hand painted and took a year. Functionally the bag was worse than what you buy at Walmart. If you bought that bag 99% of people who see it wouldn’t know it cost more than $15. But the point of such items is to signal your class and they know that is worth $20k and rich people are not trying to impress us randos they are trying to impress their peers.
I've made my own AirPods case out of vinyl leather. It's just to protect the case from damage and the material is very soft and not thick.
$930, I literally just LOL'd in my work cube. For that kind of money I'd rather buy the monitor stand and use it as Decor.
Sounds like a better option for sure. Come to think of it, does wireless charging still work?
