"Weaving with extruded vinyl yarn provides me with endless design possibilities . . . the intrinsic sheen of the yarn, its durability and the fact that it can be washed makes the finished textile modern, elegant, and functional."

"As technology becomes more integrated in our lives, it's a natural extension for people to want something that represents them," says George Campbell, director of Industrial Design at Griffin Technology Inc. "For this reason, fashion is a natural fit with technology."
As its first offering in a collection of accessories featuring Chilewich Mini Basketweave woven vinyl, the Griffin + Chilewich cooperative introduces the Elan Form Chilewich case for iPhone 3G and 3GS. A durable and impact-resistant Griffin-engineered polycarbonate shell provides the foundation of the case. Chilewich's Mini Basketweave is wrapped around the shell, resulting in a case that is both rugged and beautiful. The woven textile is easy to keep clean and designed to look great for a lifetime. The two-piece Griffin EasyDock design provides access to all controls and ports, and allows quick docking without removing the case.
The first Griffin + Chilewich accessory, Elan Form Chilewich case for iPhone 3G and 3GS, is now available at the Apple Store and MoMA Design Store.
Available in two colors - Gravel and Light Grey - the Elan Form Chilewich case for iPhone 3G and 3GS is a distinct combination of style, comfort, and durability that is the essential complement to a fashionable tech lifestyle.
