Case-Mate About Us, Case-Mate - Form fitting cases, holsters, skins, covers, and accessories for Apple iPhone, BlackBerry, iPod, and MacBook in premium leather.
We always have an “open doggie door” policy here at case-mate, and many of our best friends spend each and every day with us here in the office. We thought it was about time to celebrate our furry friends and declared our own case-mate Man’s Best Friend Day on Friday.
Although there were a few ‘accidents’ our pups enjoyed all the extra attention and friends to play with all day and we loved having our canine compadres around! Here they are!
And many, many more. We’re really excited about the street-wear movement like what we saw displayed at S.L.A.T.E. during Magic and can’t wait to get more involved!
Whew! It certainly has been quite the day and it’s not even close to being over yet. We got off to a good start, landing in Las Vegas about 30 minutes early. We were starving for lunch (it was already 1pm EST) and headed straight for the hotel so we could check in and hit the ground running…
After half an hour of waiting in line to get up to the reservation desk, the hotel needed a special authorization form for our rooms, so we had to get back in touch with our folks in Atlanta. About an hour later, we finally got the room situation sorted out and headed straight for the buffet. If you’re ever in Vegas, you DEFINITELY need to check out the buffet at the Aria, it’s the best – everything was so fresh and tasty!
Refreshed and revitalized, we were finally ready to hit the conference. We headed over to the Mandalay Bay Convention center – only to find that I had forgotten to bring cash for the cab and had to run into the lobby and hunt down an ATM while the cabby waited outside with Matt.
Thinking we were over the hump once we got the cabby taken care of, we both breathed sighs of relief and walked into the building…
We made our way through the maze of the lobby and headed for the huge “registration” sign, walked up and tried to pick up our badges. No luck. Turns out, we were at the registration for the Western Veterinary Conference! After making a few more stops for directions (I swear, I’m normally not directionally challenged!) we found the booth we were looking for and got our badges with plenty of time to walk the show floor and check out the latest street styles.
We’ll continue updating you as we have time to really check things out tomorrow, but here’s a sneak peek of the festivities to be found at MAGIC – a little bit different than CES, eh?
We just can’t stay away from the city that never sleeps… There’s way too much cool stuff going on!
This week, I’m heading to MAGIC to check out the latest fashion trends and hottest, most innovative designers at one of the largest fashion trade events in the world. Niche Society writer Matt Shackleford is heading there with me, so we’ll be sure to keep y’all updated this week while we’re there
Well, it was a close one. We (the girls) fought hard but didn’t pull it off in the end… At least we had matching T-shirts and ninja assasin sweatbands, unlike the boys, who looked like ragamuffins. We’ll get ‘em next time!
Well, we weren’t in Hollywood last week, but we did see stars like Lady Gaga, Tommy Lee and Ron Jeremy while we were at CES in Las Vegas. We did, however, make it onto a few videos ourselves!
Here’s a sampling of case-mate’s run-ins with fame:
Well folks, we’ve made it through a busy day 2 here at CES in Las Vegas and we have the evidence on film. After a great kickoff of winning Best of Show from ilounge, the traffic to our booth didn’t slow down.
I spent some time designing a few cases at the I Make My Case station and then moved over to the go Bare application station to apply the go Bare films to consumers’ phones.
Here’s a team photo from the event – for full photo coverage, check out our Facebook fan page!
Our mothers always told us we’re winners, but now we have confirmation!
Out of the hundreds of products judged from around the world, case-mate’s new website for case design, I Make My Case not only made the cut, it won! Read the article here about I Make My Case’s award and check out the other Best of Show winners.
Andrew Knight and Jaymee Marston show off I Make My Case as the iLounge Best in Show Winner for 2010.
The smell of fried food is in the air, swag is being collected by the bags, and we’re busier than ever on day two here at CES!
We woke up to good news this morning when we found out we won Best in Show awards for I Make My Case from both iProng and iLounge!
We also arose to this awesome video of yesterday’s action and product demonstrations from our friend Larry Greenberg at Geary Diary (www.geardiary.com). Andrew Knight was on the scene to walk him through our stations with a little help from case-mater Ian McAllister at the go Bare station.
What happens in Vegas won’t stay in Vegas for long!
The case-mate team is off to the 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) this Thursday through Sunday to debut three hot new products. If you’re in town, come meet us in person and check out what’s new at the Las Vegas Convention Center in North Hall’s iLounge Pavilion, Booth 3606.
If you’re not in town or already in our social media loop, make sure to stop by online to get coverage straight from the event via Twitter and Facebook. We’ll be sure to send you daily updates with event highlights here too!
Here are a couple photos taken during set-up on Monday:
