Apple and ISSEY MIYAKE have unveiled iPhone Pocket, a textile accessory designed to carry your phone comfortably and stylishly. Limited edition with a 3D woven pocket It fits any iPhone model and supports other small everyday items.
The idea comes from creating a additional one-piece pocket With elastic and ribbed knit: it completely wraps around the device and, when stretched, allows a glimpse of the screen for quick notifications. It can be worn in the hand, attached to a bag, or crossbodyas appropriate at any given time.
What is iPhone Pocket and how does it work?
The accessory is Made in Japan Following an R&D process by ISSEY MIYAKE in collaboration with Apple Design Studio, it revisits the brand's pleated design and translates it into a seamless technical fabric, aiming to offer a lightweight, versatile piece that aligns with the standards of both brands.

A key advantage is the universal compatibilityBecause it's a stretchy fabric, it doesn't require specific sizes or models and fits any iPhone, recent or old. The approach is reminiscent of the "sock" design of the iPod, but reinterpreted with a modern 3D pattern and a more sophisticated execution.
