The "605M Hot sock" is mentioned in some of the documentation I got.

It turns out, the C1100 holder is really no longer available, but has
been replaced by the 633-01 or 633-02.  The -01 has a metal mesh tip
cleaner and the -02 has a sponge.

I went to my local shops and found nothing that fit, before I ordered
from Tequipment.

   "Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Holder for Hakko 808? Was Re: [QRP-L 163276]
   HAKKO
   808 desoldering gun

   Good question.  MIne did come with a small sheath for the tip -- which 
   looks to be heat resistant."

   The protective sheath on the Hakko 808 isn't intended to be used while it
   is heating, the lack of air circulation would burn out the heating
   element and the nylon "velcro" used to secure it would melt under high
   heat...I believe that the sheath is for protection while the unit is in
   storage...It allows you to put the gun away while it is still warm...BTW,
   there is no reference to this sheath anywhere in the literature I got
   with mine, not even a part number for it, but it is shown in the
   picture...
