I'm probably one of the few people who actually thinks this, but I always thought the iPod socks were great. I only ever want a case to protect my iPod/iPhone from scratches etc so they were always perfect.

I hear they no longer exist though, and the old ones are too short for the iPhone 5. Does anyone know of a sleeve made of similar material? Or indeed, just a very lightweight sleeve?

Just placed an order for this suede jacket from SF Bags.

Here's are a couple of other sleeves I was considering

http://www.amazon.com/IPHONE-HANDMA...id=1352932605&sr=8-2&keywords=iphone+5+sleeve

Ultimately went with the suede jacket cause I believe the quality will be higher. A close second was the neoprene sleeve, but was not a fan of the flap closure and velcro.

The suede one is exactly what I'm after. Now I just need to find one in the UK! Could be tricky...

Thanks for your help man
