I’m running the black Paragon and fingerprints aren’t bad. Seems like there’s some kind of coating on the back that makes it more fingerprint resistant.IMO, the Sheath is the better of the two cases. Better grip, no fingerprints and I don't feel like it's scraping the finish off of the sides my phone when install or removing it from the phone.
In the Paragon since last night and ready to go back to the Sheath ASAP
Same! Which color are you running?I like to try different cases, especially cheap ones from Amazon. But somehow I always default back to the Apple silicon cases.
Got home a while ago and decided to slap on the Sheath and give the Paragon a rest. I thought I liked the Paragon slightly better but now I don’t know. The Sheath just checks all the boxes.
Without factoring weight I call the Sheath “the non silicone Apple silicone”. All around same texture, all around grip, curvy edges, clicky buttons. No fingerprints unlike the Apple Silicone.

So, To rotate different styles of cases, I chose the following option:
Tech Woven- Black
Caudabe Synthesis Frosted
Ryan London Closed Bottom-Saddle Brown
For now… 🤣🤣🤣

Thank God
I just ordered a black Sheath precise. After running the Sheath I like it better than the Paragon. I already have a gray Sheath but black is stealthy and clean with silver buttons.
Camera cutouts good on both. I don’t check with a magnifying glass or take a 100x pic to see.
Phone with dbrand Grip is sooo much easier to handle 😍
Just heard back from Caudate about my Paragon order from 11/21. The stock is still not in, even though this was supposed to ship "mid to late November". Likely just going to cancel at this point
It’s actually crazy how much the opinion of this forum has shifted on the case and Caudabe in general haha
This forum has always been a bit of a Caudabe circle-jerk (I’m as guilty as the next person). I think we talk about them so much because they deliver spectacular cases one minute and spectacular failures the next.
Waiting on the orange Sheath..............................
I’m just waiting on Caudabe to bring out more colors for the Paragon.
I insert mine camera first, then the sides, followed by the bottom.People with the Paragon, when installing the phone, are you putting the top camera area in first or snapping the phone in from the side?
Man, this thing just feels like a paint scraper no matter how I install it
Have a feeling it's going to be a while
