Since the iPod’s inception in 2001, it has sold over 1 million units worldwide. The metal backing of the iPod was always susceptible to scratching spawning a variety of solutions from different companies. GelaSkins have sourced material from 3M that allows the worry free application of vinyl stickers that also allow the printing of photo quality images on the vinyl. This leads us to Dave White’s latest project involving a series of his Jordan Inspired paintings to be super-imposed onto these GelaSkins.
The iPod skins will be available online at www.gelaskins.com for a price of 14.99 + $3.49 S&H (iPods) & $32.99 + $4.49 S&H (Laptops). Select retailers in the US, Canada, and Europe will have the vinyl available for $16.99 (iPods) & $34.99 (Laptops).
Currently available is the Fire Red Jordan IV vinyl, with the Fire Red V and DMP VI following suit April 14th. Rounding off the releases, is the elusive Black Jordan III on April 28th.
