Thank you! I really love that wallet and didn't see any reason to get rid of it yet, so I figured I'd give it a shot. I ended up liking how that mix looked too!
Got a tip for us?

I'm starting to get a line where the top edge of my wallet hits, and it's in the exact same spot I got a line on my 14 Pro Max leather case. My leather case also had a partial imprint of the round Apple MagSafe charger on the back. I have the ESR 3 in 1 nightstand charger now, so I'm expecting over time there will be a weird looking rectangle imprint on the back of my FineWoven. That magnet grabs on pretty aggressively. I don't mind that stuff at all--I kind of like when the MagSafe markings develop on the back.
Have both cases side by side. The buttons look practically identical in every way except the colour. Shame yours are loose though!
Care to take a photo?
The buttons on my FineWoven could be wiggled very easily & they didn’t line up straight.
Yet the buttons on my leather case were rock solid.
Maybe my case was defective?
You might have a defective case if they wiggly easily. Visually though, there really is no difference in how the buttons look. Same apparent material and finish.

Received my FM case yesterday and I am amazed how different the color is in person vs Apple's stock photos. I ordered the Pacific Blue and in person it is so much darker than I was expecting. Which I personally like more. Now to see if I mar it up and destroy it by just touching it.
😂 enjoy the rest of your weekendOof, yeah, yours are outta wack too
How sad
Apple added cleaning instructions to the cleaning page. I wonder how much these will help, it seems like a lot of work to clean a phone case. I’ll try down the road and see how it looks after. I cleaned my leather cases a few times a year, will probably do the same with the FW.
Me too from MagSafe charging overnight. But I got them on the leather too, so it was expected and never bothered me. It’s very faint and can only be seen at certain angles and lights.
Mine is similar around the charging port, it is skewed to the left like yours. I can also see part of the screw. Around the speakers mine seems fine
My cutout is off the left too.
Speaker and mic are ever so slightly off so passable. I wasn’t going to do anything about it coz it fits nice and tight and the buttons aren’t wobbling but I’m going in store Wednesday and I’m going to get a replacement. And also not leaving the store until they give me a perfect case! 😂
One thing I noticed about mine: once I slipped the iPhone Pro into it, I had to make sure it was snapped and secure all the way around. It felt tight before, but needed an extra snap. It’s a pretty tight fit. The buttons don’t wiggle at all, but they do if the phone is not fully snapped in place.
Just an observation. It’s far from a perfect case, but it’s not quite as bad (to me) as the reviews seem.

Normal behavior. Leather case did the same. Better the case than the phone.
I’m definitely the minority here, but I kind of like mine. The faux suede texture is actually kind of nice and different. The sides were slick at first but have become grippy with use. Only complaint is that it feels too bulky, but this is typical with all Apple cases.
I prefer a slimmer profile; i might return it for something thinner

Yup - mine does, and it means that several USB-C cables (including my Apple Watch cable) don't fit. Only Apple's thin ones do.
Kudos to apple for fine woven material imo. I’m in the camp that likes the case, but I fully expect it not to hold up over time. However, I do really enjoy how it feels (soft) vs plasticy cases I have used for over the last 10 plus years. I’ve had leather cases too but never REALLY liked them and they really didn’t hold up over time for me (my last leather case was the black folio wallet for iPhone 11 Pro Max, which I had on for 1 year ish)
