After months of tweaking, design and samples we proudly announce our first cover for the Amazon Kindle. We are very enthousiastic about the result so here are some ‘home made’ pictures of our Avantgarde case.

Currently its on his way to our photographer to take some real pictures to fill our productpage. We will make sure that we have shot of every detail.

The STYLZ AvantGarde case is leather case with a trifold system and a unique holding mechanism which keeps the Kindle safe and secur in the case. So no more flaps around the corners to hold your Kindle.

The Kindle slides in between two ‘L’ shaped clips which will hold the kindle perfectly in shap. The clips are made of metal covered with a protective layer to keep the Kindle safe inside the case.

The AvantGarde case is a black leather case with a crocodile print finishing with elegant finish of white stitching. Its a beautiful way to dress up your Kindle and gives your Kindle what it suites best, a unique design with an innovative holding system.

Besides its great looks its also functional. The inside offers cut-outs to store your creditcard or businesscards and you can also put in a small document like a boardingpass or some small notes. There is also a cut-out for a pen.

The backside features a cut-out to switch your Kindle on/off or to switch on/off the wireless without taking the Kindle out of the case each time you want to switch it off or on.

The Avantgarde case is available for pre-order next week the 27th of August. Its priced at $49,99 ex. shipment.

Besides our main goal of bringing you the most stylish iPod and other consumer electronics accessoiries, all of us at STYLZ headquarters always try to take care of our environment as well.

As iPod development has taken pretty much a stand still, some items have become ‘antiques’ already. At our warehouse we still had a bunch of “old” Nano 2 skins.

So … what to do with a couple of hundred skins without just wasting them.

We asked well known Dutch designer Cindy Jeurissen, known for her own bags label “Cin” (www.bagsbagsbags.nl) to find good use for our leftover iPod skins.

Here’s the result : a colourful dress, made out of over 200 iPod skins. Total price of the used materials : over €2000,- , including Cindy’s design : priceless!

We will have some gorgeous models showing the dress to the public at the IFA trade show in Berlin (aug 29th - sept 3rd), but here’s a sneak peak of the final design.
