Kindle Slip Covers: Looking for Recommendations

[boundbooks]

I'm looking for recommendations for one of those Kindle slip-covers/cover-thingies. I'm leaning towards purchasing one, since I don't want to damage the screen of my Kindle while I transport it, but I'd love to hear some feedback or suggestions or reviews from other Kindle owners before I plunk down cash.

I'm not looking for one of those Kindle covers that has a light in it. I'm really looking more for something I can shove into a purse or backpack and not worry about the Kindle being damaged. For it to look nice would be a great bonus. I'd prefer to buy something that's made in the USA (or at least not China) or handmade, but I'm open to general suggestions.

Has anyone had any good experiences with these things? Bad experiences? Suggested companies? Companies to stay away from? Must-see Etsy stores?

edit - I have a Kindle version 3. :)

Oh, it's good to hear that the default Kindle cover works well! Haha, agreed about them fleecing us. XD

Oh well, at least it's good to know that it's actually a quality product. :)

The kindle standard leather cover is robust, well-made, attractive and easy to use. It makes my Kindle look and feel like a real book - a slim, leather-bound volume of verse or something. I got the leather one because I wanted to protect the screen, and people used to armour themselves in leather.

Other covers may be even better, but I don't feel in any way ripped off with the one I bought.
