This case is awesome! It doesn't scratch the player and it has a plastic cover to protect the screen! It comes with a neck strap and belt clip that is top notch. The Nano swivels in the belt clip so there is almost no chance of knocking it against something resulting in damage to the clip or the Nano. There is a locking mechanizm that keeps it from popping out of the belt clip automatically. The plastic is heavy duty and holds up well. All that for $20 is a steal. I use this while jogging and it works great! The protective screen does tend to slide around sometimes, but it easily slides back in place and the protection it provides greatly out-weighs having to adjust it from time to time. All of the Nano controls work perfectly through the case. EZSkin IS the best case for the Nano, hands down. I would recommend it as an excellent gift to anyone with this player.

Some elastic covers, such as the Speck Skin Tight, defeat the purpose of the Nano by adding too much bulk to their case. However, the Speck Deluxe Nano cover does have a thin clip-on attachment that fits the profile of the Nano perfectly. On the other hand, Audio Outfitters' cover greatly compliments the thin, sleek features of the Nano, but the belt clip-on attachment is too big and defeats the design of the case. There is also a nice clip-on attachment called "The Shadow", made by Groove Talent Limited and is sold through some Radio Shack stores. It has an even sleeker design and attaches directly to the Nano with no cover, case, or skin included. Unfortunately it offers too little shock/scratch protection and a slippery surface that does not adhere well to shirt pockets (and does not fit Audio Outfitters' or Speck's Skin Tight cases). Why doesn't some company develop a slim, tight protective cover with a thin clip-on attachment that does not slide off easily when clipped to a shirt pocket ? Since the primary attraction of the iPod Nano is its small size it seems like an obvious concept. So far I haven't seen the product out there with all of these traits in common.

The look & feel is perfect. One of the best fits out there.

Ipod cover ordered was NOT what was shipped. It was an imitation and not an original EZ Skin. It did not have clip, necklace or film to cover screen. I had no informtion to return it. Needless to say, I would NEVER purchase from this seller again.
