Perfect for a naked read
I love my new Oasis. Prior to having it I had a Paperwhite and a lovely neoprene pouch. The Oasis has some clever integrated cases, but for me the beauty and balance of the device is ruined with a flappy case to manage. So I was looking for something I can slip in and out.This fits the bill very well. Nice soft touch suede on the outside, nice and soft on the inside. Fit is easy but snug. You can remove and insert easily, but the Oasis doesn't rattle around. The corner seams add a little extra bump protection for drops.The magnetic clip is perfectly strong. It happily keeps the flap closed without being stiff. I was worried that a magnet connected to an electronic device might be problematic, but after a few weeks of use it seem fine.There are lots of similar pouches with zips, but I don't want to rub that flush screen against a plastic zip. On top of this, with the magnets I can silently get out and put away my kindle without disturbing my wife in bed.A simple product, but one I needed and am happy with to protect my new favourite Oasis.

Thin, stylish, lightweight
I like to use my Kindle Oasis "naked", I love to nestle mu fingers in the groove on the back and how thin and light it is. Any of the other cases snap on and flip back making the kindle bulky, heavy and unergonomic.I got this sleeve because it only mildly increases the dimension of the kindle, still allow me to keep in it my coat pocket and it gives it a bit of protection from falls and scratches. It is pleasant to the eye and to the touch. The coloured elastic band is not the best style, but I guess it does its job.What this case does not do is protecting from crushing, sharp hard impacts against the screen.For what it is I cannot fault it. I hope the elastic band will last the test of time and if I were to do anything to improve it I would probably make it more snug sideways and put a rigid plastic slab in correspondence of the screen, to reduce the risk of any direct impact with a pointy object. But I cannot dock any stars for wanting this to be a slightly different product. I recommend it.

Would not Recommend - Poorly Made
I had great expectations for this case after spending quite a bit of time looking at options.The fit seems poor, for a kindle oasis there is a real bulge in the case where the back protrudes. Aside from this upon opening it was I showered with a grit like substance, not sure what it is but cleaned it out as best I can- very concerned about it damaging my kindle though.To be honest for the money I thought the case would be a little better. The elastic strap is already less springy so I am wondering ho long it will last, and I haven’t really used it due to the grit issue - I’ve cleared it out but it keeps appearing from the seams!There have to be better options out there. If you are looking for a cheap case, not fussed about a good fit or any protection - this could be for you.

Really disappointed.
I ordered this pouch to go with my new Kindle as I don’t want to use a case whilst using it so preferred the pouch. The product arrived with a mark on the lining and was full inside of what I can only describe as sugar?! I initially started to brush it out but I was concerned that sliding the Kindle into the pouch might result in the ‘sugar’ scratching the screen so I returned it.EDIT - the company got in touch with me and sent me a free of charge case which is great quality and I am really pleased with. Obviously doesn't change the fact the first case was really bad but perhaps that was an isolated incident. If I'd received the case I have now first time this would be a five star review!

Far nicer than I expected!! Quality item. Good protection.
Walnew Khaki slip case for latest Kindle Oasis 3. Not much choice about for kindle Oasis 3, so had to plump for something. The KO3 (esp 32Gb & 3/4g) is quite an investment, but this quality product is far, far better and well made than I expected. The “suede effect” has a premium feel, is non slip and is quite thick and just the right size, with a slim magnetic case (or just the naked unit.) Just right for slipping unobtrusively in a hand bag or man bag and know that everything is protected. The magnetic closure is unobtrusive (and quiet) & does not affect the unit or the mag case. Also pleased with khaki as a classy looking choice. Quality stitching. It feels like it should last and even be splash (the KO3 is IPX8 too) and (relatively) sand proof. Thoroughly recommended. :-)

Great Value
Brilliant vfm.Firstly, the look and feel, as can be seen in the photo, this looks sturdy and well made with good quality stitching. The inside has a lovely soft suede-type feel and is definitely gonna protect from scratches. The pouch material is approx 1mm thick but is quite flexible so easy to insert and remove the kindle. The case is kept closed by two magnets which work adequately.As can be seen in the photograph, the case will easily hold an Oasis 2017 WITH BATTERY COVER ATTACHED and provides a snug for whilst still being easy to remove. In fact, I would say that it would be possible to also keep a spare (short) charging lead and a screen cleaning cloth inside too!The outside has a lovely soft texture also like soft suede and the whole thing looks and feels durable and professional and feels of quality.Worth every penny and in my opinion is an essential piece of kit for anyone who values and regularly carried their oasis around with them.One final touch, as shown in the photo, also included is a feedback card which tells me that this company genuinely care about customer opinion.Finally, it was great to get an email from the company afterwards, great product and great service!!!

great sleeve, well made
This is a neat well made sleeve, with double magnetic clasps on the flap. it does not appear to put the Kindle Oasis 9th Gen to sleep when the kindle is inside the sleeve. This is ideal for travel, however if you're looking for a rigid cover this is not for you; this is a cover that will do perfectly to prevent scratches when I'm not using the kindle. If I dropped the sleeve with kindle inside, I would be hopeful that it wouldn't be broken but wouldn't be surprised if it was cracked - this is not a product that would cushion any serious blows; the said, I am happy with it, as it is an excellent stage sleeve.
