There's something about owning a designer item that just feels so special. Whether simple and

However, "designer" doesn't always have to equate to a hefty price tag—take smaller accessories like wallets and phone cases, for example. The small designer item we're currently eyeing? AirPod cases.

Lucky for us, many of our favorite labels have put out their own spin on the AirPod case, giving one of our most beloved tech accessories a fashionable twist.

We scrolled through our favorite sites to find the best designer AirPod cases to shop in 2022, from Gucci to Balenciaga and everything in between. Keep reading to check out our picks.
