I’m struggling to remember the exact point at which green became cool. Since when could you do the right thing for our planet and look good at the same time? It doesn’t really matter — enviro-chic is definitely in, and now is your chance to bring the movement to your iPod. Eco-friendly company Imoeba has just announced its new line of cases for the iPod nano 3G and classic.

Imoeba cases are made from bonded leather. This is a man-made material consisting of genuine leather scraps.Imoeba cases are environmentally and ecologically friendly because we use recycled leather scraps which are very difficult to eliminate and would otherwise be destined for the landfill. Even though the bonded leather used in the making of Imoeba cases are recycled and man-made the look, feel, quality and durability is as close to genuine leather as you can get without actually exploiting animals directly for their skins.

 

And, we’ve even taken this a step further in making a contribution to protecting our environment. All of our packaging is made from recycled paper meaning no plastics were used which would harm the environment.

Imoeba’s Alpine cases for the new Nano and Classic feature magnetic closure, a belt clip, and full access to all ports. They come in white and, appropriately enough, green. In addition, a portion of every purchase benefits Earth911.

The Alpine nano case is available for $19.99 and the Alpine classic case is $24.99 at
