Griffin Technology has released the Papernomad Tootsie for the iPad and iPad mini. The new folio’s exterior is made from water-resistant and tear-resistant paper and provides a “perfect blank canvas for artistic creativity,” says Keavy Murphree, product line manager at Griffin.

Papernomad products are meant to be drawn on, marked on, and written on with crayons, ink, coffee stains, lipstick, pencils and everything people use to make their mark on the world. This collection of marks and traces turns every Papernomad into a companion that tells its owner’s story, says Murphree. T

Tootsie Folio is created with Papernomad’s patented paper composite, a wool blend lining and a natural hemp fiber closure-strap, all sewn by hand in Europe. Embedded magnets in the strap hold the folio closed or folded into a stand for viewing and typing. A magnetic strip on the interior of the folio grips the iPad’s built-in magnet and works with two corner straps to hold the iPad y in place.

The Tootsie Folio for iPad, US$69.99, and iPad mini, $59.99, are now available. For more information go to www.griffintechnology.com/papernomad .
