This is the second DLO leather iPod case I've purchased. A while back, I bought the DLO HipCase Leather Folio Case for 80/120/160 GB iPod classic 6G (Black) for my oldest son's iPod Classic. He loved it then, and it's still going strong two-and-a-half years later. So when my youngest son got his first iPod Touch, I went looking for a DLO HipCase Leather Folio Case for it. I was ecstatic to find this case! It offers excellent protection for the entire iPod and doesn't require the ridiculous "installation" effort that so many cases require these days. You just slip the iPod Touch into the case, and you're good to do. The padded case protects the front, back, and sides of the iPod, and allows all ports to be accessed. The leather cover--with a nice magnetic closure--flips open so you can access your iPod and easily use it while it's still in the case. The belt clip lets you clip the case to your belt or pocket, but isn't so bulky that it prevents you from comfortably putting the case into your pocket. And the best part? The iPod is easily removed from the DLO case so you can use it with an alarm clock/speaker/charging dock. A lot of other cases prevent you from using your iPod with a dock because of their bulk. You have to remove the iPod from the case in order to dock it. Then put the case back on when you're done. For many cases, that's a time-consuming, frustrating process. With the DLO HipCase, it's a breeze! Aside from being very functional, this case has a very simple, classic style to it. Granted, it's not neon green with funky textures on it. But there's nothing wrong with conservative, is there? It's also reasonably priced. If I didn't know how much I paid for it, I would've guessed it cost at least twice as much as it does. Bottom line: Great functionality, great protection, and my 15-year-old son loves it. I call that a major win. The DLO HipCase Leather Folio is the perfect companion to the iPod Touch!

5.0 out of 5 stars Works with ipod touch 4g, September 25, 2010

Great case, and it works with the ipod touch 4g. I wanted a case like this for the new ipod, but I couldn't find one. Therefore, I bought this one taking a gamble. I put a TPU flex skin on my new ipod and crossed my fingers. To my (not) surprise my gamble paid off, it fit snug as a bug in this DLO HipCase. Without a TPU skin, the ipod still fits, but I the skin does help it stay more snug.

Also, for everyone complaining about the magnets, I have no idea what they are talking about. I've had no issues with the magnets affecting my ipod, which makes sense because their pretty weak magnets. They will hold the flap down, but if you give it a good jerk the flap will pop right up. So, don't worry about the magnets being too strong. I'm guess those people either had malfunctioning ipods or sometime of super DLO HipCase with extra magnetic power.

I agree with everyone that it would be nice if the belt clip was removable. If you'll never use it on your belt, you can remove it the old fashion way, but of course its a permanent removal ;)

As a final note, you can use the flap as an arm to hold the ipod standing vertically up. Not an intentional feature, but nice.

Received just in time to protect my new ipod touch. Great purchase. The ipod touch fits perfectly in the case. Very pleased with this purchase. PS...if you have a stylus it should fit in the pocket if you slant it to the side.
