While some netizens are still debating whether the product price is reasonable, a group of netizens with strong hands-on skills have already taken action. They believe that instead of spending nearly 2,000 yuan to buy official products, it is better to make them themselves. Some netizens said that they can save more than 3,000 yuan by making their own long and short iPhone Pocket models. At the same time, topics related to "The Weaver Girl is Coming to Life" have rapidly heated up, and many netizens have shown off their DIY finished products. These homemade works are not only diverse in style, but also no less creative than official products.
According to CNMO, iPhone Pocket is jointly created by Issey Miyake and Apple. This product is designed with "a piece of cloth" as its design inspiration and adopts an integrated three-dimensional woven structure that can accommodate any iPhone and various portable gadgets. Users can carry iPhone Pocket in a variety of ways, including holding it in hand, attaching it to a bag, and wearing it directly on the body. The short-strap iPhone Pocket model is available in eight colors and is priced at 1,299 yuan; the long-strap model is available in three colors and is priced at 1,899 yuan.
It is worth mentioning that a few days after the release, on the resale platform, the price of the long iPhone Pocket rose to 2,999 yuan, and the short version reached 1,699 yuan, with the highest premium reaching 1,000 yuan. At the same time, many retail platforms have also put similar imitation models on the shelves, with prices as low as about 60 yuan.
