Jansport iPod ready Denim Jacket

Jansport has a really large selection of iPod ready Jackets that have a stylish cut and look good.  If you are out and about for a jacket that makes the navigation of your iPod more convenient than ‘normal’ jackets that do nothing for your iPod except holding it, you might consider having a closer look at Jansport’s iPod ready clothing.

We have posted last September extensively about Jansport’s autumn/winter outdoor jacket collection.

The one item we missed out in this overview is the Women’s Ringed Denim Jacket, ready made for the iPod based on Jansport’s own LifeWire+™ iPod remote control solution.

The soft touch remote control buttons is located next to the right hand pocket, a very welcome deviation to the otherwise mainly in the sleeve integrated remote control buttons.
