Combine your love of music with your love of the planet by using a Passchal iPod case made from the recycled innertube of a truck tire. I have a Passchal tote bag I've been using for a couple years that's made from the same material: It's rugged and surprisingly attractive. Most people don't realize what it is and assume it's some kind of leather. (No stinky rubber smell remains.)
Needless to say, the cases are waterproof and stain-resistant, and Passchal offers a lifetime guarantee, which helps justify the $54.95 price tag. I think they're worth the price just for the cool one-of-a-kind look.

That's a really really cool way to use recycled tire and rubber goods, especially if its stylish enough that most people don't recognize it for what it is-no tire treads on the outside of your tote bag, right?
I'd like to see more things like this made out of recycled tire-it's so durable-but only as long as it doesn't smell like burning rubber in the rain or the summer sun. :)

I mean I am all for the environment but I did not buy an expensive ipod to wrap it in old tires .. I bought a case that is 100% waterproof .. and a hard case design so it can protect my investment fully. I am always in th eoutdoors .. hiking .. boating .. fishing .. and my ipod goes with me I am NOT going to let a little rain stop me ... Got mine at www.DryPodsOnline.com ...
