You just need to find someone with a sewing machine and some very basic skills (I have never sewn anything since we were forced to in high school...lol).


I like that! It looks good and it looks like something that would fit perfectly in an average-sized front pocket of a man's pants - which is exactly what I'm looking for.

I have the dimensions of the Mini, but it might be problematic figuring out the extras millimeters needed to house the Mini 'securely' in a sleeve.

On a side- note, I bought a sleeve for my Kindle PW2, $9.99, and found out that my Kobo Glo also fits in it, as well. Even though the Glo is not as tall as the Kindle, the fit is essentially perfect.

Here's the URL for that one:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I would like to have one EXACTLY like that, but for the Kobo Mini.

Back to the Mini:

There's a sleeve available from Amazon, but it's $14.99

Here's the URL

http://www.amazon.com/Felt-Mini-E-re...bo+mini+sleeve

There's also this one, Etsey:

which is rather expensive.
