Hi! I’m getting the iPhone 17 Pro as soon as it’s released - so now I’ll do my Homework for the right case.
I want the most beautiful and durable leather cover on the market. What’s your experience?
Last time I was looking for a leather case, I chose Apple’s own, but I remember you then said other brands did it better.
I remember Bullstrap - is it the only one in the “super league” or can you prefer other brands?

As I’m sure many will confirm; there’s no “best” leather case.

If you browse through the leather patina thread on this forum, you’ll be able to see reviews, photos and what to avoid.

I’ve personally used the following, they’re all good but some in different ways…

Bullstrap, Andar, Nomad, LuckyCoin, Torro, Wiiuka, Lonli, Satchel & Page.

As well as things to consider when you're looking for a case that fits your needs. Quality of leather, closed vs open bottom, camera ring material, sides in leather or TPU, back only covers, etc. There's all kinds of things to look at and consider with leather cases, and that thread covers the gamut of it. Best to do some research and find what you think will be the best case for you given what you feel like you'd prefer, as everyone likes different things.

Been using Snakehive for every new phone I’ve had for years. I can’t fault them.
