Well here is the blue case... it looks purple, totally not feeling it, guess back to the drawing board.

Aw man. If only the blue was a more solid color... im thinking abot getting the burgundy. On their website you can see what the case will look like depending on the color of your phone...

Have fun with offerup. I've tried selling my old cases on there but no luck
 
For 7+ yes if that counts. Dang solid case. Who cares if it holds up; they have a ten year warranty lol

What questions do you have about it?

I've read that those fake screws cause wear out marks on the back of the phone after a while. Has that been your experience? It says on the box that it has actual alloys and real leather, is that true?

I haven't used mine enough to be able to speak definitively but the fake screws don't touch back of phone so I don't see how that's even possible. I believe materials on back are real.

Go to BB and play/look at one perhaps?

Haven't found the monarch series anywhere close to where i am so I had to get it ordered online. Already made the order hoping it won't be a disappointment. Does it make the iphone 7 feel bulky like an otter box commuter ?

It is kinda of bulky. Definitely not the biggest but does add some width for sure

I think the earlier ones had an issue where the screws became loose over time. Looks like they fixed it. I've been using my black Monarch mainly for about a month now and love it. Very well made case. Just put it back on today after using the leather Apple case for a few days.
 
So, I'm wondering if anyone has a good solution to my dilemma. I have tried a couple minimalist cases lately, and I can't find the best of both worlds. I love the Caudabe sheath's design/size, but I wish it had more grip to it. I just got the Totallee Spy, and I like the grip. However, I don't really like the squared design of it.

Anyone know of a case that is similar to the sheath but has more grip?

Just got the case today and I am very impressed with the build quality. Feels super sturdy and no problems with the DBrand skin on the phone. I've got the skin protecting the phone from case and the case protecting it from the elements it's an over kill but I like the option of going caseeless from time to time.Not sure how I should feel about this headphone jack cutout at the bottom

In total I've accumalated black/brown Apple Leather, UAG Monarch and a cheap generic tpu case.

It's a great case..........once you get past the headphone jack cutout.

I don't know why, but it's hard to find a case like that with ample grip. I find the apple silicone to be the best option. It's slim and doesn't feel like you're holding a bar of soap.
 
A little on the light side with the iPhone 7:
1. Caudabe Veil XT
2. Caudabe Sheath
3. Caudabe Synthesis
4. Spigen Ultra Hybrid
5. Apple Battery case
6. Apple Silicone
7. Totallee Spy
8. Lovett Ultra slim clear

Which is your favorite one/daily driver?

Yeah. I tried one with the 6s. It was a bit frustrating getting it out of my pockets, and I was worried about the silicone cover peeling off the case. So many bad reviews. I don't know why Apple hasn't done anything to stop that or make it sturdier.
