This a great protective case! You will inevitably drop your iPod, at least once, and you will be glad that you installed it in this case. The case has one drawback and that is if you take your iPod Classic in and out of it about a hundred times, the case will be stretched a bit and your iPod will be slightly loose in the case; (i.e. - the case won't fit like a glove like it did when it was new).

I purchased a tough skin for my ipod. I have never been so grateful for a product ever. My job requires me to work with preschool to teenage dance students. I cannot begin to tell you how many times my ipod has been knocked off the stereo top or out of my hand to cartwheel across the floor. It has survived several brushes with death. My most recent accident involved a large heavy wall clock coming loose during a jumping exercise. The clock hit the screen of my ipod on its decent to the floor and shattered, taking my ipod with it. Other than a cracked screen protector (which, thank God you sell as a replacement part) my ipod was in complete working order. A must have!

I've bought 3 tough skins - one for my 60GB iPod 2-1/2 years ago and the others as gifts for family & friends. This is by far the best and most durable protective cover on the market! Love the "Fun Skins", too!!
