ShadesCases has released the new “Shades” for iPhone 3G and iPod. The cases are made from a semi-soft plastic (Polyurethane) only .4mm thick. The product comes in 12 different colors, costs $17 to buy (order online), and is 100% recyclable.
Unlike most iPhone cases, Shades for
iPhone 3G really bring out the beauty of the device, instead of hiding it. Having been designed to be ultra thin and lightweight, they don't rid the iPhone of its slim appearance, and neither of its functionality. To put it in simpler words, Shades are the opposite of
this. The cases are also resistant to wrinkles, dirt, grease, and water stains, and are very easy to clean, ShadeCases says. Best of all, iPhone owners docking their device a lot can do so without removing the case. Shades for iPhone 3G allow you to keep the case on while the device charges in its dock, or uses a portable speaker system.
“Don't be fooled by their thin size! Shades iPhone 3G cases are made with 100% durable Polyurethane (soft-plastic), providing your iPhone 3G with full protection, including crystal-clear screen protection, while providing full access to all of the iPhone's ports, allowing you to plug in just about anything,” says the company.
“Like millions of other iPod users, I love the iPod music player and take it everywhere. Therefore, protection of the iPod is very important to me,” says ShadeCases' CEO. “ Unfortunately, there are many cases on the market that are bulky, impractical, or detract from the iPod's sleek, thin design, or don't protect the entire iPod, not to mention the high costs for some cases. So, Shades iPod Cases, were designed to be thin, light, and protective, still leaving the iPod fully accessible and stylish."
Note that Shades may not work with every iPhone speaker system or 3rd party accessory.
Shades iPhone 3G Cases are available in 12 colors from the ShadeCases
website. As of right now, Shades Cases can only be purchased online, but will also become available in retail stores later this year.
