Instead of embracing the hi-tech look of now-common devices like smartphones and tablets, people are opting to bring a natural touch to them such as with the Grovemade iPad Sleeve. Made out of wood, either maple or walnut, it brings a sense of warmth to the otherwise cold pieces of technology. Considering that tablets are used daily by many, the Grovemade iPad Sleeves make them more personable.
Complementing the wooden smartphone cases, the Grovemade iPad Sleeves are entirely made in Portland, Oregon. The laser-cut iPad protectors boast a faceted facade that adds a nice modern touch to the overall design. Each are finished with a German wool inner liner to ensure that no accidental scratches are left on the surface of the tablets as well as an integrated leather and brass strap.
