I had the product red leather case, didn’t like how dirty it got so I have the same in silicone now. Each to their own I guess, admittedly it is a nice case but it just gets dirty quick
Yea it’s always been one my favorites too since the iPhone 5s, Forest Green is still probably my favorite for this years iPhone especially if you have the Midnight Green model then I would say Saddle Brown.
That’s my go to for now. The grip and feel of the case has the best texture compared to the other apple leather cases I own. It’s simple yet sleek.
I normally would go for the Product Red, but man imo it just looks awful with Midnight Green. None the less my daily driver remains the saddle brown, but mainly because I don’t care for it. It can get banged up all day as ling as it keeps protecting my phone. After all it just keeps looking better over time 😏
I think I’m gonna start fresh with a new saddle brown case once I find one on sale. Mine is jacked up and isn’t really taking on new character ever since I sanded it and used leather balm.
Edit: It’s $37.99 at Best Buy now. Down from $49.99. Good deal or no?
Edit: #2 I’ll continue to use my jacked up saddle brown case in the meantime.

Good point. That black leather on Space Gray 5s was just so pretty! The 11 Pro SG with black leather case kinda reminds me of if.
I think I may hold off for a while longer. Maybe until the iPhone 12 is released or until we have more concrete renderings. If Apple makes a saddle brown case for the 5.4” model then I’ll sell/trade in my 11 pro. If not, I planned on holding onto my 11 pro for at least a couple of years. If you’ve seen pics of my artificially patina saddle brown case; it doesn’t look all that bad. It surely does not have the natural golden brown age look to it like your case. ❤️
Let me take a look. Thanks for the heads up.
Edit: Do you have a link? It’s showing up at $49.99 for me through safari.
For sure. Discount applies at checkout. Just picked up a second one to hold me over till the 12 comes out 😬
Well, seems like it’s out of stock online and won’t let me add it to the cart for checkout.
Target and Best Buy price match just show them when you go to the store the price that Verizon has it for. 😏
That’s what I said when I got my 11 pro. 30 cases later....
Trust me it’s worth the wait. These new saddle brown leather cases have extra layer of dye that eventually wears off and age just like the old ones.
I actually just placed an order from VZ for the same case. It was 50% off and couldn't turn it down. Not to mention, I needed something different than the Forest Green I have been using since launch. Can't go wrong with this color though as it goes well with any color IPhone.
