Caudabe keeps pushing everything back I can’t believe that I’m still waiting on a case I ordered 9/12 and after reading through this thread for a while now I’m very doubtful it’s even going to arrive and work properly. It’s disappointing bc I had sever so for my 15pm and loved all of them.
 
Tried an apple clear case today because I think it does genuinely look good on the silver 17 pro, but I just couldn’t get over the wet bar of soap feel that clear cases have. Other than that, the buttons did feel a lot better than previous years so hats off to Apple for significantly improving it in that aspect.

Back in the black techwoven
 
I’m thinking about canceling my sienna Techwoven from Amazon. First, I’m super happy with this Pitaka Sunset Ultraguard. Second, I want something different than a second brown(ish) case. Third, I’m not super keen on the minimal surround where you can clearly see the aluminum frame around the screen.

Nomad Traditional or Bellroy case in black leather are looking hella nice.

FWIW, the Nomad Traditional also shows the aluminum frame around the screen just like the Techwoven.
 
Here's some photos of my Pitaka Black/Blue Twill. Loving the color combo on my orange 17PM, but little less impressed with bottom left and top right case fitment. It seems snug enough, but notice-able gaps when compared to the other corners of the case.

Big plus is that for me, there's no pinky strain from the case. So many cases, and other Pitaka's I've had in the past, dig into my pinky in the USB-C area.

Camera control button seems iffy, but I almost never use it anyways (which means I prefer it covered, even if it doesn't work well).

WHY DONT THEY MAKE FINE WOVEN FOR THE AIR!! Its like apple is trying to purposefully, segregate the AiR!
They don't make the TechWoven for the regular 17 either. Looks like Apple is purposely segregating the more expensive Pro line not the Air. As they should.

Gen 7 out for delivery.

Also I think a lot of people will like the Tank case, it won be over after not knowing what to think about it when I first saw it. Liked it so good I ordered an extra one.
Need pics of that gen 7 case. Really interested to see the frost once they release it too, taking a page out of torras playbook
 
Is anyone using the Caudabe Synthesis Frosted on their 17PM? What are your thoughts decent? Thanks.
