No listing of available iPad cases could ever be complete without showing those offered from the premiere Argentinean leather company, Vaja. Not only have they released four new iPad cases, there is even a leather bag for those of you who aren’t yet sure how to carry the iPad in style.

As expected, you’ll pay a premium for all that Vaja goodness, but we’ve grown to expect that and accept it as part of the price for carrying the best, right?

About Judie Lipsett Stanford

View all posts by Judie Lipsett Stanford
I have had a fascination with all types of gadgets and gizmos since I was a child, beginning with the toy robot that my grandmother gave my brother - which I promptly "relieved him of" in 1973. I have long been captivated by devices that did anything interesting or served a unique purpose - however silly. I can't tell you how everything works – but I am known world-wide for using a product until I have a full understanding of what it does, what its limitations are, and if it excels in any given area...or not.

    wow what a price tag for carrying the ipad in style but they are pretty cool looking.

    I’ve had several Vaja cases for my and Sami’s iPhones, and we love ‘em. I wouldn’t go for something that cost almost as much as the iPad it covers, though!

    These cases look beautiful, but… I’ve had trouble with Vaja Cases. I bought an iPhone partly because I “so” wanted to get a Vaja case. Most people gave them good reviews. I bought the Vaja black n red LE. Beautiful case. The first one I got was horribly crafted. I sent it back for another one. The replacement lasted for about 7 months. I received compliments all the time. The leather aged nicely, but the plastic on the closure tab began to wear through. It of course scratched the iPhone’s bezel. I sent this case back for a replacement. The replacement appeared to be made of a cheaper leather, and I was right. Not only did it not have that “sweet” leather smell, it didn’t age nicely at all. In fact, after just a few weeks of light use, it began to look moldy. You know what I mean… the way cheap leather wears down quickly to what looks like white mold on the surface. It looked horrible. I sent Vaja pictures. They told me I abused the case, but still offered me a refund. The refund was offered without me even asking for it. So either, they knew it was a low-grade leather, or they are just that nice. Either way, I hope one day I will feel confident to buy another Vaja case.

      You got an iPhone for a case. You’re silly. Disappoints me that they started using cheaper leather, maybe it was a fluke who knows, glad to know they they stand behind their products refunds / exchanges and what not. I probably won’t be plucking down that much $$$ for a case for my gadget though. I don’t know the case of the Vaja iPad case is half the cost of the iPad! e-gads!

    I’ve personally had very good luck with Vaja, and am sorry to hear a out your issues, bikeohio. If you are interested, Beyza has a nice line of leather iPhone cases that are much less expensive that you might like.

    Personally, I wish Vaja still had the Rivet clips as an option; having my iPhone on a Riven clip on my belt was just about perfect.

    Do you think the price of a Vaja case is well worth it? They really look great though the price is a bit steep.

    pat3ck – the Gear Diary editors gave me an ivolution case for my birthday; since it took 30 days (roughly) for it to be made and delivered, I received it just last week. I’ll post a review after using it for a bit, but so far I am enamored with it. The detachable cover makes it a very flexible and adaptable cover and case, and the craftsmanship is amazing. The fact that it smells so yummy is a bonus. ;-)

  • http://www.geardiary.com Douglas Moran

    pat3ck: My Vaja Grip case for my iPhone cost around $100 or so, and I’ve had it for more than a year. I got a $30, plastic skin-like cast for my iPhone . . . and it lasted 2 weeks. So it’s definitely been worth it for me. The Grip with a clearcoating for the iPad would be something I would seriously consider. The iPad messenger bag looks really nice. And I find the Agenda fascinating–I keep hoping Judie gets one and reviews it for us.
