Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of DLO HipCase Leather Folio Case for 80/120/160 GB iPod classic 6G (Black)

Customer Review: Streamlined, attractive, and highly functional
Summary: 5 Stars

I don't expect much from my iPod sleeves/covers. I want them to protect my expensive electronics while also allowing me to comfortably use them. If the case is not terribly ugly, that's a bonus.

Well on the least important item, i.e. looks, the DLO hipcase is a real winner. This is an elegant looking case that fits my 160GB classic snug as a bug in a rug. It looks terrific, and the supple leather feels great, too.

But function is more important than form. Thankfully, this case does its job admirably on that count as well. Use some caution when you first slip the iPod into the case, as loose stitching could result in mild marking or scratching (not an issue with mine, thankfully), but once inside your iPod is not going to budge, slide or move an inch. The leather is thick enough on the face and back to provide adequate protection from scratching and minor bumps. Even better, the side leather is thicker and wider than the unit, allowing it to nicely absorb the show of falls. Good protection.

The flip top works fine (some users may find the headphones jack gets in the way, but it hasn't been a problem for me) and access to the click wheel is adequate (though less than perfect). There are openings for both the headphones and charge jack, so once in its case you'll never have to remove the iPod. I like that.

A number of users have reported problems with the hip clip wearing and coming off. Since I don't use the case in that way I can't speak directly to it, so I'd urge potential buyers to scan some other reviews if you plan to wear this on your hip.

All in all, for the price I was very happy with my purchase and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this, with the caveats noted above.
