MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Speck, leading designer of award-winning, slim-fitting protective cases and covers for smartphones, tablets and laptops, today announced that it is releasing StyleFolio, a new case design for the newly announced iPad Air and iPad mini with Retina display by Apple.

“The new iPads are a notable leap forward and StyleFolio is evidence of how, at Speck, we keep pace with device innovation through careful refinement of the cases that protect them,” said Bryan Hynecek, vice president of design at Speck. “We’ve made this case more bold and vivid, and reconfigured the construction to offer more complete protection and maneuverability, without compromising the slim, sleek design.”

An evolution of Speck’s popular line of folio style iPad cases, StyleFolio combines lab-tested protection and durability with meticulous design, wrapped in a range of new seasonal colors and patterns.

• A new vegan leather cover is smooth to the touch for easy handling and cleaning
• A new full-perimeter, form-fit hard shell offers complete protection for the bottom, sides and corners
• A redesigned, sturdy cover protects the screen and allows for multiple upright viewing angles and typing modes
• The locking clasp secures iPad Air and iPad mini with Retina display easily in both frontal and rear closure positions with chic color contrast accents
• The interior is reinforced with a color contrasting soft lining that prevents scratches

The StyleFolio comes in the new Fall/Winter ’13 Specktrum, inspired by nature’s warm, lively colors and innovative textures, which capture the vivid and unpredictable spirit of the season.

StyleFolio will be $39.95 for iPad Air and $34.95 for iPad mini with Retina display. The StyleFolio case for iPad Air will be available at www.speckproducts.com and select retailers as soon as the new device goes on sale. The StyleFolio case for iPad mini with Retina display will be available later in November.
