STYLE GUIDE: There's a new iPhone slipper in town and it's called iSkin. One of the worst ideas I've seen yet in fashionable iPhone footwear. This handmade pull-over iSock thingy is made of 100% super soft acrylic yarn that's durable, but ultra soft to the touch. As if soft will somehow mask fugly.
Chicago designer Urartist, describes her iSkin cover this way; "Just slip it on your little think tank, then, get the 'wow' effect from your classmates and peers when it's time to pull it out."
I can't wait to see that look of horror on people's faces when you pull out your Grandma's orange afghan spooning your iPhone. Expect your peers to start bitch slapping you silly just for sport.
iSkin can be made to order in the obnoxious color of your choice according to the designer. It's possible the epic button fly feature may not be optional. Get this one from Urartist on Etsy for $16.00 along with a small shipping fee and plenty of regrets attached.
This was forwarded to me today. Call it Fugly, but I want one! It's one of those 'Who would have thought?' kinda thing.
You gotta admit it stopped your tracks, man. I vote for the macbook covers from urartist.

Your articles are wicked! :) I actually think it's cute, I havent seen anything like it. And to see it's sold out means there are people out there who appreciates it.
Obnoxious as you may say, it succeeded in getting your attention. So, I gotta hand it to the designer.

Too funny. I always love the humor in these types of articles.
Keep up the good work.

Actually, it's hilarious! And kind of cute. They sold out.
At least it's not one of those idiotic BatMan utility belt pouches!
You've seen those ultra-dorks wearing 2 or 3 AND wearing a Bluetooth headset. Talk about FUGLY!
