Anyone going naked with the 6s?

Nope. It might be made for Europe, like mine. Legally they have to have the fcc labels.
[doublepost=1454487847][/doublepost]I love it naked but it slips and hits me in the face when I'm reading in bed. Used to have it on a Caudabe (which I love, own both models) but now it sits comfortably on an apple silicone case, midnight blue (or black, depending on the lighting).

All iPhone 6s/6s+ in the EU/UK still have the FCC labels on them, in fact the labels on mine look to be peeling off somehow.. Don't have another camera though so can't take a pic right now.
Spigen is abit thinner, but the leather isnt thick either. I like the leather more because it feels better on your hand; Spigen is still slippery being a smooth hard plastic case. The leather case is providing more the protection so it is abit bulkier than Spigen.
I used my 6 naked for a year and am now using my 6s naked. Honestly, in those 13 months, I have NEVER dropped my phone. However, accidents happen so I have AppleCare+ just in case.
I don't find the phone slippery like a lot of other people.

Does it count as naked if I cover it in a minimalist skin?
I really don't like the added bulk of a case but I just can't bring my self to haul my 6S+ around without something to protect it against scratches.
My retired 5 went without a screen protector for the last year of its service.
Poor thing regularly got chucked in my pocket with my keys.
The screen did not sustaing any deep scratches from this but it does look like a wolverine with very hard claws went at it; lot's of small scratches.
Bit of a tangent, I know, but:
I really liked the almost industrial like design of the 5.
The edges of the phone seemed to get prettier with every bump and notch it sustained.
I regularly dropped it (by accident, I promise!) on pavements, rocks and asphalt and the edges really just kept on looking more and more ruggedly handsome.
Not sure if the 6S will do the same as wear and tear takes its toll.

I totally agree with you. I've had iPhones since they were first introduced and have gone naked or opted for minimalist protection. I chose a transparent case with minimal protection for my iPhone 6s Plus because I've always been very careful with my iPhones and have never had an incident . . . until recently.
My iPhone slipped out of my pocket and dropped, face down, on the floor. The height, since I was stooping, was not over 2 feet. Well, the screen shattered
, I took it to the Apple Store the same day. They were unable to repair the screen so they gave me a new iPhone (have AppleCare Plus) for an $99. I wasn't too upset because this is the first time I've had an accident; I had AppleCare Plus; and it was a just a $99 lesson. I did not leave the Apple Store without a case that offered the protection my current case lacked. I got OtterBox's "Statement" (which is only sold through Otterbox or Apple Stores). It has Otterbox's infamous protection and has a transparent back (but 3/4 of the way down it has a leather band the same color as the case). The front creates a "lip" that raises the iPhone screen so there is no contact with the surface it sits on. I asked the rep to put the case on his iPhone and drop it, face first, at the same height that I dropped my iPhone. He complied because he said, because of some deal he had, he would not be upset if his screen shattered during the drop test. It survived the drop test so I left the store with my new iPhone in the Otterbox case.This is what my new case looks like. The color looks good with my Space Grey iPhone 6s Plus, offers better protection yet still lets the beauty shine though.
Nice lesson.. The case looks a little heavy though. Can you post a pic of the front side too ?I totally agree with you.
