Nostalgic Nineties Phone Protectors

The Griffin Colourtouch iPod & iPhone Case is Polychromatic

The Griffin ColourTouch iPod case is a throwback to the chameleon-esque, heat-activated, color-changing items that were popular back in the 90s.

Over a decade ago, the Hypercolor T-Shirt was all the rage and used heat activated materials that changed the color of the garment when touched. This smartphone case was created as a nod to the body heat-powered, color-changing craze that resulted after this shirt hit the market.

Available in two versions that change from either purple to blue or green to yellow, this hard shell protector snaps snugly onto any 4th Gen iPod touch. Powered by body heat, the outer layer of the case changes from one color to another when held in one's hand.

Featuring a subtle, lizard like pattern, the phone cover is sleek and thin with a bit of pizzazz.
