Been using my Etsy casephile custom cloth dust jacket for two weeks, and I'm quite pleased. The lightweight cover fits nicely, and uses fusible cloth for stiffener (lighter than wood; more durable than paper). Four leather straps hold the Kobo Aura at each corner. I do have to shove upper right aside a smidgen to turn on the annoying power switch. The velcro close is long enough to reattach once it's behind the reader. At my request, the designer added two straps on the long edges of the inside cover, which become hand slots on the back when opened. This way I don't have to grip anything: slip the arthritic hands in and position my thumbs perfectly to tap at screen's edge.

I think the orange "Chinese Lanterns" fabric I chose makes it much easier to find my reader; it's sturdy and slightly grippy.

US$ 37 to my door.
