iPad Covers Made From Madoff’s Clothing

FrederickJames.com is selling limited-edition iPad covers made from disgraced fraudster Bernard Madoff's designer clothing.

Frederick James, which we learned about thanks to Business Insider, is a very, very niche operation, devoted solely to the design and manufacture of fashionable iPad covers made out of luxury rescued and vintage fabrics, such as cashmere, silk, rayon, organza and wool. The covers are lightweight sleeves designed to inject a touch of fashion into portable technology. They can protect the iPad from scratches and nicks -- but not from the results of being dropped, kicked, etc.; they are fabric, after all.

The company's Madoff sleeves are handcrafted -- and only "a few pieces" are available for sale. Check out the collection on FrederickJames.com. Prices range from $350- $500 and authenticity certificates are also available upon request. Some of the proceeds apparently go back to paying the victims of Madoff's Ponzi scheme, as the company says, "You can buy the covers and rest in the peace of knowing that a part of your money was used in paying back those who lost their life savings."
