Overview

Starting a store sounded like fun, sort of like putting on a play. I’d get to write the script, design the production, be the lead actor, hire people I liked, and direct the whole thing! After a year of answering to bureaucrats in my job as coordinator of the new State Street Mall, it would be wonderful to be the boss of everything. But what about afterward? What if the show wasn’t a hit? What if I couldn’t pull a salary out of it?

Later in my career, I would understand that luck and timing were big factors in my success. In 1979, I had no grasp of national economics, but I did have a sense of something afoot. A strong new business cycle was brewing that few saw coming. I would open my store on State Street on the cusp of a retail boom at the height of the American Century, although I had only a faint sense of that yet.

Nor did I have any idea that within a decade, it would all start to fall apart.

So far, indestructible.
Color: Coral Orange
Such a good case! For a 6 year old that isn’t exactly gentle with devices, it’s perfect. The swivel kick stand is pretty versatile, easy to find a comfortable angle to see the screen no matter which weird position your kid sits in. The color is really nice, the orange is soft and very pretty.

Sturdy just wish it could be adjusted to hang shorter
Color: A01-Colorful Pink
Very sturdy. Love the colors, easy for my 4 yr old to handle and use. Wish the length could be adjusted shorter for her though. When wearing, it tends to hang low by her knees.

Very reliable, even after 1 year!
Color: A01-Colorful Pink
I purchased this over a year ago. It has since been dropped, stood on and thrown (all by toddlers) and no visible damage whatsoever! I love the kickstand that also double has a way to hold while moving. It's a bit complicated to initially put together, just because of all the placement of the silicone around the plastic box, but once every bit is in the right place you're golden. I also appreciate the port cover to add an even higher durability rating from me. My toddlers find this very easy to use and I love how versatile it all is. Definitely worth the money to keep the iPads running and protected.
