I picked up the KAVAJ "TOKYO" case from Amazon.
Great quality case! The interior of the case is coated in that matte, soft touch material usually reserved for the exterior of plastic cases. The bad photos on the website (and on Amazon) really do not give this case justice. The exterior portion is a really soft genuine leather. It looks really nice and definitely looks, feels and smells of leather. With the case on the iPhone 6 is now about the same thickness (possibly slightly thinner) as a naked iPhone 5/5s. It feels super thin and light... not much different than holding the phone naked. The corners are protected but the top and bottom are left wide open as are the cut out for the buttons. This is definitely a minimalist's case. While I bought this case for the card slots, I kind of wish they offered it without the card slots now, as they don't look bad in anyway but now I kind of want a flatter back. The pockets do off a little bit of extra cushioning for the back of your phone though.
The pockets are nice and tight. I put in my drivers license to test it out and I definitely see the slots getting looser over time if you cram a lot of cards in there. But for now nothing falls out and it looks nice and flat with the card in there. In case you wanted to know about 3/4 of an inch of the card sticks out in the back.
Overall this is a great buy and after doing some research it turns out that KAVAJ is a well known German leather case company and only recently (2013) broke into the US market. They probably could have easily charged up to $50 for this case. My order was $25 with 15% off and free shipping so it ended up being a great deal!
I think it prefer it over the Apple case mainly because it has a hard Polycarbonite "skeleton" inside the soft leather skin. Also to note I have a Skinomi front skin covering the glass 100% on and the case never touches any of the glass areas so any front skin is safe from peeling up.
