Abstract

A case for an electronic device may include one or more buttons or logos. The case may have an inner wall that defines a recess for receiving the electronic device and an outer wall that forms an outer surface of the case. An opening may be formed in the outer wall to accommodate a button member or logo member. A layer of material such as a layer of fabric or polymer may have a first portion that forms at least part of the inner wall of the case and a second portion that extends into the opening in the outer wall. The second portion may wrap over the button member or logo member to form an outer surface of the button member or logo member, or the second portion may wrap under the button member or logo member to form a substrate for the button member or logo member.
