There’s literally only two cases on that list that I have even a passing interest in… lol. Saved me a bunch of time. Thanks!
 
I’d personally recommend the ESR. I have both here and the fit of the Spigen was not good and the camera cover makes the button unusable (for me), so it’s going back. The ESR fits nicely and has a working CC button.
Which ESR model?

WTF is this shiz?? First having to till late September when it should have been ready by launch date, and now having to wait till Mid-October to ship out??

If it wasn’t for the fact that many people praise the Sheath, and being a first time user myself, I would have cancel a long time ago. FYI ordered the 17 Pro Max Sheath Gray.

Yea, and I ordered the black Sheath precise and ember Paragon precise on the same order. Just went to the link and told them to change my ember Paragon to midnight. This is a total nightmare. Let's see if my black Sheath actually ships today.

Do you still have both cases on the same order? They won't ship until they have both and the midnight Paragon isn't shipping until next week.

You may have made arrangements to have them ship separately...

I have the midnight paragon precise on order for my 17Pro hoping to ship out the first of next week.🤞
 
Ordered a Pitaka last week from Amazon. Was supposed to be delivered in 2 days. Order was cancelled by Amazon after the 2 days.
Yup. I waited for two weeks, then had my order cancelled on the morning it was supposed to be delivered. Shipping from China seems to be a complete catastrophe at the moment.

I sent them an email asking for 15% discount for compensation, which I didn’t discover until after I placed my order. Let’s see what they say…
 
Suti CEO sent out an email and apologized for the delay (Probably sent to everyone) and offered 15% off and free shipping on NEXT order LMAO. I don't care what they are doing to improve shipping for future orders, I want to know what they'll do about my current order. Why would I ever want to order a second product if the first never even arrived? How are they so out of touch?

That’s wild. Prime typically means its in a local warehouse as opposed to being shipped from the supplier.

Was it the case in the blue tints with the mountains that you ordered?

Yes, both on the same order. Supposedly they are going to start shipping each case as they are available and not holding up orders until everything is in stock.

Guess if your in Asia the Sheath might ship today, US and Canada = fuhgeddaboudit :(

Quote from the last email I had with them:

Both the Sheath and Paragon will also be in stock very soon. To reduce your wait time, we’ll be shipping each item as soon as it becomes available rather than holding the order until everything is ready.

The latest from Süti:

Hey John,

I want to reach out personally and apologize to anyone who’s been experiencing longer-than-usual shipping times on recent orders. At Süti, customer happiness is above everything. From the product itself to the shipping experience. And right now, I know we’re not delivering on that promise.


Even though we’re a US-based company, we ship to over 150 countries worldwide. Most of our products, including the iPhone 14, 15, and 16 PhoneBacks, ship directly from the US and are arriving quickly without issues. The delays are tied to the iPhone 17 PhoneBacks, which currently ship from our international hubs.


Up until a few weeks ago, everything was smooth. But recent changes to U.S. de minimis rules have caused more package reviews at customs, creating backlogs. USPS and other couriers are facing slowdowns at major hubs like New York, Chicago, and LA, which is why some of your deliveries are taking longer than expected.


While this is outside of our direct control, we’re not sitting still. We’re already implementing a new solution that will bring iPhone 17 PhoneBacks back into our US warehouse. This means delivery times of just 2–5 business days again. Fast, smooth, and reliable. We expect this to be completed within the next two weeks.


In the meantime, as an apology and thank you for your patience, we’d like to give you 15% off your next order plus free shipping. We’ll let you know as soon as inventory is back in our US warehouse and shipping is running smoothly again, so you can use your code once everything’s back on track.

Use code: ONUS15 for 15% OFF
Use code: FAST15 for FREE Shipping

We’re deeply grateful for your support and for sticking with us as we work through this. Süti has always been about building products people love to use, and making sure you love the whole experience is just as important to us.


Thank you for being part of this journey.


Best,
Matthias (Paisi) Paisdzior
CEO, Süti

Yea i told them I want to cancel the order and want a full refund and if I'm forced to do a return, I ain't paying any return fees. They told me "they escalated my request".
