Fashionistas wanting a stylized accessory for their devices may now get one. Griffin Technology has joined hands with Chilewich 1 Sultan LLC for crafting a collection of accessories. The first Griffin plus Chilewich accessory, is the Elan Form Chilewich which has been released for the iPhone 3GS.
The accessory is a robust and impact-resistant Griffin-engineered polycarbonate shell which delivers the groundwork of the case. This is claimed to be the first offering in a compilation of accessories featuring Chilewich Mini Basketweave woven vinyl. This Mini Basketweave is draped around the shell, ensuing in a case that is both tough as well as striking.
Sandy Chilewich, Chilewich l Sultan LLC, commented, “Weaving with extruded vinyl yarn provides me with endless design possibilities…the intrinsic sheen of the yarn, its durability and the fact that it can be washed makes the finished textile modern, elegant, and functional.”
George Campbell, Director of Industrial Design at Griffin Technology Inc, stated, “As technology becomes more integrated in our lives, it’s a natural extension for people to want something that represents them. For this reason, fashion is a natural fit with technology.”
It is quite simple to keep the woven textile spotless. The two-piece Griffin EasyDock design offers access to all controls and ports, and enables speedy docking without detaching the case. The Elan Form Chilewich for iPhone 3GS comes in gravel and light grey. The accessory is a blend of style, comfort, and durability which is a vital balance to a trendy tech lifestyle.
Elan Form Chilewich is available in a few Apple Retail Stores and the MoMA Design Store for $39.99.
