Apple released iPhone pocket (in partneship with ISSEY MIYAKE 1) - “an extra pocket” just to carry your iphone. Comes in 2 options - short strapped or long strapped, and an array of colors to choose from if you choose short strap, while you get to chose from blue,brown or black if you are into the long strap.

Bad news: it’s already sold out!

Good news: it’s sold out!

This product surprised me! My wife scoffed when I said I wanted to get the Apple case($69) for my iPhone - when I made the switch from Android to iPhone, a proud moment of a newly awakened Apple fanboy[^2]. Well she was right because the third party cases on Amazon were way cheaper and got the job of protecting my iPhone done pretty darn well. Now an extra pocket for your iPhone at $149/229 to hold your iPhone is just as crazy as it sounds! [^2]: The Apple craze was oozing, as a newly christened Apple user exhibiting severe Apple fanboy energy.

Buying that extra pocket might just free up one of your pockets that’s housing your wallet - a paradox in itself. :)

Yes, it’s bulletproof in the sense that any bullet aimed at questioning your Apple fan(boy/girl)-ism would be reflected by this purchase. Buy this and no one would even dare take aim at you.

This is peak consumerism! An iPhone pocket priced like Airpods Pro 3? Wild. And yet shomehow, unsurprisingly Apple!

And if at all you are someone who purchased this: I request you to be a little more extravagant and extend your consumerism:
