The ALC that was launched with the iPhone 5s was the best cell phone case in the history of the world. I suggest apple continues this line of cases. YOU HRAR ME APPLE! HUH!! YOU BETTER MAKE THAT CASE!

I wish there was one for the iPod Touch. Cry.

I have to wonder how well those leather cases sold. Unlike the rubber bumpers for the 4/4s that I saw very frequently, I've seen very few of the leather cases for the 5/5s in use. Most of the 5's I see out there seem to use a Speck-looking case or an Otterbox.

I'd like to see them for the iPhone 6. I'm still using my launch day yellow case, although it looks greenish to me. It's dirty as all get out but it's still my favorite case.

I agree, and this from someone who hates cases... but I bought a black one and throw it on every once in a while when I am going to do something that requires me to keep the iphone safe. The black leather case not only looks great but has withstood any punishment and has protected well.

+100%!! I used to switch cases every week until I got the OEM Apple leather case ony iPhone 5. I got black so the stains that were bound to happen didn't effect it's looks. Perfect fit, great added "grippy-ness", and great looks.

I hate shopping for & wasting money on cases. I hope Apple has planned accordingly for the 6's release.

Huh? It's just a lousy bumper case. I hate bumper cases...


No... this is a bumper, notice that the back is open and it only covers the sides with protruding edges to protect, the back of your phone is still prone to scratches...... a case fully protects the back and sides of the phone

OK then, it's a posh bumper. A case to me, be it a flip/wallet/slip, covers the front of the phone too.

It's ok, but I'm not a huge fan. Tough to take off and the gaps between the phone and case let in dust. It's well made, but not my cup of tea.
