I'm rocking the only case I've been rocking since launch day of my 5s. Apple Blue leather case

Its taken a few good hits as you can see..
 
I'm also an obsessive case buyer, but also like to dabble "naked". I went a month not using a case, just a Knomo sleeve (very nice, better than the Sena (also have!)) but the case I always return to is the Apple leather case. I love leather even though the Apple case doesn't smell leather (best leather smell is the BookBook, then the Knomo).

Anyway guys, what's your number one case, if you could only choose one?

This is humbling tbh. My Apple black leather case will most likely get this treatment. I put it back on last night after using the crucial Verus case for 10days. Lol. Something about the leather cases.

I'd like it to smell of leather though. Feels like leather but no smell?
 
I've been using my leather case a lot more recently and I just love how it wears over time. Bought another one today. I think my case search might be over.. stay tuned.
 
What colors?

I have midnight blue currently and I bought a black one. Was planning on red, but then I've read that it gets dirty easily along with the lighter colors. Plus gold probably looks better in the darker colors.

Oh cool! I've had midnight blue since Nov 1st and it looks absolutely fabulous the way it's worn. Recently picked up brown. Don't like the color when new, can't wait for it to darken up and patina. I think a nice rich dark brown will look really nice.

Do you use any leather care on it at all?
 
Finally found "my" perfect case...the Catalyst waterproof case.

Good grip, great all-around protection, sleek design and no sound problems.

Excellent design and build :)


This is excellent to hear. I'm currently waiting for mine to arrive - ordered it last weekend. I went with the black/gray/ranger orange.
 
I bought several ZooGue cases awhile back during their huge blowout sale. I've always used the clear case and never tried the other colors. I put on the navy blue today. I absolutely love it! Nice feel, grip and sleek as well. After using my Magpul for awhile, you can really feel the difference in bulk.

Interestingly enough, the buttons on this color are much more responsive than the clear. I wonder if they made a change to the buttons, since my prior purchase of the clear case?

Anyway, here are some pics:
