Womens Kempo Ipod Jacket

Kenpo, one of the early integrator of iPod control into jackets hasn’t been on my radar for a while so I looked around and discovered a complete line of good looking jackets for men and a smaller selection for women.Kenpo seems to be very active in the iPod Fashion segment with their iPod ready jackets.
