Best Buy and Cole Haan set to supply new options for smartphone cases

Best Buy will soon be offering the gift-giving answer for Father's Day shoppers: a stylish new wrapper for his dad's smartphone.

The electronics retailer has partnered with Cole Haan for an exclusive line of leather smartphone cases ($59.99-$69.99) for iPhone 6, iPhone 6+, Samsung Galaxy S6 and Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge devices.

Footwear and accessories maker Cole Haan follows other top designers such as kate spade new york in creating tech accessory lines with Best Buy. "Fashion and style aren't exclusive to women; men care about what they wear and how they look, too," said Best Buy senior category officer Jason Bonfig. "The new Cole Haan collection gives men more options, from a name they know and are already wearing, for the devices that rarely leave their side."

The traditional and wallet-styled cases, which include camouflage, woven and crocodile prints, are available now for pre-order on BestBuy.com (with free shipping) and will be available in Best Buy stores nationwide beginning Sunday, May 31. Some items will also be available in select Cole Haan boutiques.
