Apple’s AirPods are the most talked-about tech accessory out on the market right now. With rumors of the release of the third generation earbuds continuing to circulate, it’s looking like an official rollout could come sooner than we think.
Owners of the current AirPod iteration are happy enough with the existing model to turn them into functional jewelry accessories, or to go to extremes to save them when they fall onto subway tracks or traffic. But one’s love for AirPods shouldn’t be too complicated and the simplest way to give more care to the device is keeping them safe in its case.

They vary from sleek luxury designs and branded collab cases to environmentally-friendly choices.
