Apple and Issey Miyake Debut Limited iPhone Pocket, On Sale Nov. 14 in Select Markets

A single-thread 3D-knit carry sleeve elevates the iPhone to fashion status through premium pricing with a tightly curated rollout.

Overview

  • The accessory comes in two versions—a short-strap wrist style for $149.95 and a longer crossbody for $229.95.
  • Sales begin November 14 with online availability where offered and in-store sales limited to ten flagship Apple Stores in areas such as Ginza, Saint‑Germain and SoHo.
  • Launch markets are China, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Japan, Singapore, South Korea and the United States, with Germany excluded at launch.
  • The pocket uses a single‑thread 3D knit that stretches and is intentionally porous to allow a subtle view of the iPhone display.
