Custom Leather AirPod Case Made Specifically for Your Brand or Business

Our customization option goes well beyond placing your logo on the leather Airpod case for truly unique items for your brands. Here are some further options for customization:

• Hardware customization such as metal color options (nickel, gold, rose gold, black, antique brass), custom buckle designs with company logos or special design elements, and magnetic closures with varying strengths based on market preferences.
• Texture can be varied for leather using embossing with designs starting from classic pebble grain to geometric patterns
• Edge finishing options, which may feature raw edge, painted, or folded edges based on design requirements.
• Interior customization includes microfiber color selection or custom-printed patterns for lining materials.
• Structural changes, which include thickness adjustment (1.8mm to 3.5mm leather option), extra compartments for carrying accessories, and modifications regarding wireless charging compatibility.
• We are also able to provide aroma customization based on leather treatment processes that give each brand unique fragrances.
• For corporate clients, we can incorporate technology such as NFC chips to enable digital business cards.

Our design team also offers free consultations to ensure that our custom options will best suit your market and price range.

Regarding the selection of materials to be used in a leather AirPod case, sometimes the choice is driven by aesthetics, durability, or affordability. For high-end labels, the preferred material is undoubtedly Full-Grain Leather; this is the best part, which also develops a patina or a soft shine over the course of time, a factor of great appeal to the high-end buyer. But it is thicker than other leathers; thus, skiving this material requires expertise to be suitable for slim gadgets. Top-Grain Leather is the next best thing.

For promotional or budget conscious brands, you can consider Genuine Leather (Split Leather) or PU Leather (Polyurethane). PU leather is water-resistant, vegan-friendly, and can produce complex prints, making it very good for fashionable, fast-fashion collections. At Mherder, we suggest to clients which material will work best for them according to their target selling price. Another aspect we consider is the friction coefficient; leathers should have sufficient grip for holding but should go smoothly into a pocket.

Yes, the material thickness plays an important role in the manufacture of the leather case for the AirPod. Most modern versions of the AirPods support both wireless charging features and the MagSafe feature. However, if the material thickness falls above 2.5-3mm for the combined leather and internal shell material, the charging coil and the device may become too far apart, making charging either very slow or not at all operational.

At Mherder, we use precision skiving machines to thin the leather to about 0.5mm to 0.8mm thick for hard shell wrapping. This helps to ensure optimum total wall thickness. During the sampling and prototyping stage, we carry out all the testing on the standard wireless chargers to ensure the LED visibility, which shows charging status, can be seen either through a die cut hole or by thinning a section of the leather to allow the LED to pass through.

There is a specific mold case that fits exactly one model (e.g., AirPods Pro 2). There are cuts for the charging port, speaker holes, and the correct location of the pairing button. It exactly replicates the outline of the device. This type of mold case design suits tech-loving users who want to have the best functionality without having to take the device out of its case.

“Universal pouch, or ‘bag style’ case” is a small leather case designed for various earbud brands, not just the AirPods. It might have a snap button or magnetic flap closure. The appeal for the wholesaler is their ability to offer multiple uses for the same product, as it can be used for customers with AirPods 1, 2, 3, and possibly even competing brands such as Samsung and Sony (as long as they’re comparable in size). The negative aspect is the fact that the consumer must first take the device out of the pouch in order to use it. Mherder offers both, but molded cases are preferred for the price-point and model-specific retail, and pouches for corporate gift orders where the model of the recipient’s device is in question.

We produce leather cases for AirPods 1st, 2nd, 3rd generation, AirPods Pro, and AirPods Pro 2. We also offer custom-sized production for new or specific models.
