Apple has collaborated with renowned Japanese fashion house ISSEY MIYAKE to launch the iPhone Pocket—a limited-edition knitted carrier designed specifically for the iPhone. The accessory is now completely sold out worldwide in every market where it was released.
It was available in two lengths and multiple colors:
• Short version: Lemon, Mandarin, Purple, Pink, Peacock, Sapphire, Cinnamon, Black
• Long version: Sapphire, Cinnamon, Black
In the United States, prices were $149.95 for the short version and $229.95 for the long version.
Joe Rossignol for MacRumors:
iPhone Pocket became available to order on Apple’s online store starting Friday, November 14, in the United States, France, China, Italy, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, and the United Kingdom. It quickly sold out in the United States, but some colors and size options were still available in South Korea and a few other countries until the past few days.
Given it is a limited-edition accessory, it is unclear if there will ever be additional inventory of the iPhone Pocket now that it is fully sold out worldwide.

Meh. I love Apple, but this looks ghey.
Looks more like a sock or a sling than a pocket.
The iPhone Socky Sling.
they did not have it in my hometown.
I obviously have no taste.
Apple innovation at its highest level.
