SAN MATEO, Calif., Nov. 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Speck today launched Presidio SPORT, the ultimate smartphone case for fitness enthusiasts, now available exclusively at Best Buy and BestBuy.com. It is designed to truly meet the needs of any athlete, adventurer or gym-goer, with 10-foot drop protection, 360-degree port protection from sweat and dirt, an antimicrobial exterior and a grippy texture for a secure hold.

Presidio SPORT is made with IMPACTIUM™, a dynamic rubber that absorbs 52 percent more shock than standard TPE rubber. The IMPACTIUM Shock Barrier lines the inside perimeter of the case, compressing on impact to shield the device from 10-foot drops, making it even more protective than military-grade drop-tested cases.

Speck took Presidio SPORT to the next level to address the needs of a rapidly-growing fitness community. It is designed top to bottom with an active user in mind with features that address protection, function and even hygiene:

Microban® Antimicrobial surface - A recent study by FitRated found free weights at the gym contain 362 times more bacteria than a toilet seat. An antimicrobial layer is added to the surface of the case to keep germs off your device.
360-degree port protection - Keeps out dirt, dust and sweat.
Grippy texture - 1/2 mm liquid-injected silicone layer provides grip to keep a secure hold on the phone even while running or sweating.
10-foot drop protection - Packed into a slim profile so users can slip their phone into an armband or pocket and know it'll be safe.

Presidio SPORT is available exclusively at Best Buy and BestBuy.com for iPhone X, iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus cases also fit iPhone 7/7 Plus, iPhone 6s/6s Plus and iPhone 6/6 Plus. It retails for $49.95 - $54.95 depending on device model.
