Abstract
A protective enclosure for use with a portable electronic device includes a rigid shell and a cushion layer. The rigid shell is configured to removably cover at least a portion of the portable electronic device. The rigid shell includes openings and one of a tab and a groove on an external surface of the rigid shell. The cushion layer is removably disposable over the rigid shell and conforms to the external surface of the rigid shell to cushion the rigid shell. The cushion layer includes one of a groove and a tab that corresponds to and interfaces with the one of a tab and a groove of the rigid shell to retain the cushion layer to the rigid shell when the cushion layer is disposed over the rigid shell. The cushion layer further includes an opening that aligns with at least one of the openings of the rigid shell.
