In fact I left the main wiimote I use naked. The reason I don’t like the 3rd party ones is because the holes for most of the buttons are too close to the buttons. That and the thickness of the jacket make pressing the A, – and + buttons and especially the Power button and home buttons very awkward and irritating. The 1 and 2 buttons don’t really suffer this problem because the buttons themselves are raised higher, same with the dpad.

In looking at Nintendo’s new jackets, it looks like they realized this as a problem and made the exposed sections much wider. Looks like these will feel much better than the 3rd party ones.

Already ordered 4.

Thanks Nintendo!
