Prima ships iPod, iPhone fashion cases

Prima Cases has teamed up with fashion designer Nicole Miller to launch a new line of Prima Select iPhone and iPod cases. The cases are made in a European facility with high quality leather, according to Prima Cases, where they are detailed and finished. New iPod cases include the iPod video Envelope ($20) in green, black, and cordovan as well as the iPod nano Envelope ($18) in black, green, and cordovan. iPhone cases include the flip style case ($45), Vertical Jacket ($30), Open Face ($30), and Lateral Holster ($35).

Prima's Select Envelope style case for Apple's iPod video and iPod nano is a leather slip case with hand stitched edges and a soft velvet interior, offering a "scratch proof" clear PVC faceplate to guard the liquid crystal display of the portable player.

iPhone cases

The Prima Select Premium Leather iPhone Flip Case is made of harder shell Italian leather with an opening for the handset's proximity sensor. Perforations allow sound to carry through the case, while the flap protects the screen from scratches. The case also includes four credit card slots, a snap closure, and a smooth flat back.

Prima's book-style leather Open Face case helps protect the phone from knocks and scratches by fitting snugly around the device. An open face offers complete unhindered functionality, and the case is lightweight with a slim profile with or without a belt clip.

Another hard leather case, the Leather Lateral, features a rugged low profile belt clip with a recessed magnetic flap closure. A smooth velvet interior also protects the iPhone from scratching.
