Now that the Kindle has ventured outside its home — the land of cowboys, blue jeans and beef — it seems that it should get a change of clothes. The Amazon-supplied leather jacket may make the e-reader look all cool and James Dean in its native land, but overseas we’re a little more conservative.
So it seems very fitting that the first English Kindle case to reach our inbox is a wool and cashmere pinstripe number, the very essence of the City Gent in protective rectangular form. It costs 22 Pounds Sterling ($36), and with its foam lining works as a protective slip case rather than mimicking a paper book’s cover like the official Kindle uniform. The maker, UK Wrappers, also offers a range of materials and designs, including a couple of tartans for Scottish Kindle owners, and a Paisley-lined number for the Irish.
It’s all very international, although I now feel that my Kindle is a little underdressed here in Spain. What should he wear, I wonder? Suggestions in the comments.
