Keep your iMac Warm with this Italian Slipper

Unless you happen to be that Starbucks guy, your iMac doesn’t get the loving attention it needs. Unlike you warm blooded humans, those aluminum iMacs can get pretty chilly thanks to its bare aluminum flesh, and it’d be a shame for your work horse to catch a chill. Why not accent those cold metallic toes with the iMac Slipper? Made from vegetable tanned leather (that will darken overtime in sunlight) and 100% premium wool, the iMac Slipper by Hard Graft is designed to accent the iMac as both a fashionable desktop companion and conversation piece for the iMac stand. The iMac slips gently into the leather footrest, providing a soft cushion for it to stand on while you pound out those complicated code thingies and process those processor numbing Photoshop jobs. That’s the least you can do for your beautiful 27” right? No matter your constitution on the necessity of such an accessory, at least the Hard Graft fellows are honest in their product description.

OK, maybe you don’t really need one but isn’t it a really cool and unique way to customize your iMac or Cinema Display and show that you really care about the details?

Well played smart crafters of fine leather products. Well played. Surely this will bring some personality and color to your most well worn machines, and what better way to stand apart from your coworkers than by wrapping your iMac in a warm leather hide? For €29.00, the iMac Slipper can be yours.
