20 heavy-duty Kindle and Fire covers and sleeves

Heavy-duty Kindle covers

These heavy-duty Kindle covers should meet the needs of active people, who spend a lot of time outside – or just have vigorous children.

Most of the cases can be bought on Amazon, but there are some really good cases, which are available only on the websites of their producers. You’ll also find them in this overview.

One millimeter doesn’t make a big difference when it comes to a flip folio case with corner straps. Hard cases, especially the ones designed to give extra protection, are different. They are made to fit exactly one specific model.

Amazon Fire HDX 7 is different than Fire HD 7. And Amazon Fire HD 7 (1st generation) is different than Fire HD 7 (model 2013). Make sure you’re buying the cover for the right Kindle model.

Sleeves, like the waterproof ones listed below, are more universal. They usually fit models for up to a certain size.

Basic Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite are smaller than Kindle Touch, so any sleeve which fits the last one should also work for the others. Some producers include in the description: “for Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle, and Kindle Touch.”

One thing to know is that since autumn 2014 the name “Kindle” is no longer used for Amazon tablets. Producers of covers and accessories will be adjusting their product names accordingly.

Therefore, if you are looking for a Fire HDX tablet, try to browse for “Amazon Fire HDX” or just “Fire HDX”, and not only “Kindle Fire HDX”.

If you won’t find the interesting item in this post, you can extend your search by looking for tough Kindle cases on the following sites.

Heavy-duty Kindle case – recommended sites

Amazon – this is the obvious choice for all kinds of Kindle accessories. One thing we can advice is that you should search not only Kindle Store, but the entire Amazon.

eBay – the list of tough cases is not that large. There are in fact a few different cases that are offered by various sellers. Therefore, you should explore eBay if you’re hunting for a price deal.

Rakuten – you’ll find here a few cases that can be found also on Amazon or ebay, so you can shop here if you find the price lower than in other stores.

If you know of any heavy-duty cases we haven’t mentioned below, please share a link in the comments under the post. Thanks a lot!
