Mine looks exactly like the pictures on Amazon.

Just received my KAVAJ Berlin (Cognac) today. Very nice, a couple of very small scuffs on it, but it's leather, there will be more.
Here are the pics:

Wouldn't a lot of dust gather between the case and the display? That looks like it would be very annoying to clean.

Devicewear inadvertently shipped me the black case, while also canceling my order and refunding my money. Being an honest guy, I let them know this, and told them to shoot me an RMA label if they wanted it back. They apologized for the mixup, and told me to keep it.
Class move.
Nice.....I am considering The Ridge. If this is the case you are referring to, what are your impressions? I am looking for something that adds very little bulk to my IPad Air 2. Thanks in advance.
I haven't opened the package yet: if Devicewear wanted it back, I was going to return it. I'm using the KAVAJ Berlin, which you can see pics of a few posts back.
Ok....thanks. If you open it I would greatly appreciate your thoughts.
Here are some pics. I have to be honest with ya, I think the KAVAJ is going back. It's nice, smells good, well constructed, etc... but it just isn't as foolproof from a stability standpoint, not does it have as many positioning options as the Devicewear unit. And as you can see from the side by side pic, there is no difference in thickness. Very nice unit, and I guess the black is okay. Devicewear is supposed to be shipping all colors, as of today, so check 'em out! Good luck!

I've read somewhere that the Kavaj needs to be used in order to get the stand function to work probably due to the leather stiffness when being new. The Devicewear isn't nearly as elegant as the Kavaj, but if you really need those viewing angles in the stand position then I guess you're better of with the Devicewear
I ordered the red one through Amazon, received a shipping notice on 10/31, with a delivery date on NLT 11/7. Was notified on 11/4 that they weren't getting the red and blue versions from the manufacturer until 11/11, but if I wanted the black, they could ship that right away. Well, if I wanted the black, I would have ordered the black...
I told them I would stick with the red, if they could guarantee I received it NLT 11/13, as I am leaving on vaykay 11/14. If they couldn't, I would take the black, but wanted it NLT 11/7, which was when they originally promised the red. That seemed fair. And I asked them why I received a shipped notice on 10/31, if they didn't have anything to ship?
The response was that the shipping notice went out when they printed a label, and that they could get me the black case by 11/13. Evidently, no one knows how to read at Devicewear... I told them if they were shipping black, it needed to be here tomorrow, and they replied by saying they would not do that, but would cancel the order. I told them cool, and that they probably shouldn't print shipping labels for orders they couldn't fill.
I'll be waiting for this one to be available:

Gah, I kept my pre-order (via Amazon) for the blue despite the delay, but was told they'd go out on 11th. I've still not had a shipping status update since that false alarm on the 4th, and UPS says the same.
Losing faith a little bit now, though I guess it could still randomly turn up any time, based on the accuracy of tracking I've previously seen.

Update, for those of us looking for a black rubber back shell that is compatible with the iPad Air 2 Smart Cover, I've found the answer.
Ge the KHOMO case from Amazon, cut the cover off with a box cutter and that's that. No glue residue to worry about, the divot is filled with the soft grey material which is a bonus too.
Note that the black rubber back is the perfect match for the black iPad Air Smart Cover for the first iPad Air, the current black Smart Cover is grey. So if you want an all-black slim and sleek protective case for your iPad Air 2 and have the luxury of a removable magnetic cover, there you go.

Do you (or anyone) know if a screen protector like Tech armor ballistic will work with that combo? Thanks.
