Protective Case for My Old School Ipod

[Library Jon]

I bought my high capacity Ipod quite a few years ago. The current version is called a Ipod Classic but when I bought mine it was called a Video Ipod. It works fine so I have never pursued getting a new one. I really need an new protective case. I am having trouble finding one because Apple & the other companies don't make them anymore. People have told me to try Ebay. However, I tried to buy a few that way and just got ones that were not the right size. Can anyone hear give advice regarding buying a new protective case? Links would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Check Amazon for "iSkin." They have silicone cases that are fantastic. I have never turned back since buying these for my iPods.

I feel that I need to be clear that my Video Ipod is not the same exact size as the current Ipod Classic. That is what is making things tricky.

Understood. I am forwarding you to iSkin products to see if they have what you are looking for with regards to your precise model.

I'm a big fan of Otterbox products. Relatively inexpensive, virtually indestructible. I've got four iPod classics ranging from about 2004-2008 and I just lost the first one (hard drive failure...it was bound to happen eventually). The others still work really well...and plugged into my OPPO HA-2 portable headphone amp/DAC, sound especially wonderful, now that I've decided to no longer listen to compressed music, so only use CD quality (in lossless ALAC compression so takes up less space without compromising sound quality) or higher (which I play on a FiIO).

Anyway, I digress. All iPods are in Otterbox Defender cases...and I've never had to replace any of them either....
