Yep, I made one based on an old nylon shock protector my brother bought me back in the day. It has a folded / sewn seam section at the top and bottom where zip ties are used to secure the ends.

I never used it on my rear shock, but one day, I noticed that it fits my seatpost perfectly. So I made more for my other bikes.

Now that I'm thinking about it, you can probably use a section of an old inner tube. Just zip tie the ends and you'd be good to go.
