Once every other month. Just a light coating is needed. Or if the case gets dirty or exposed to moderate water (rain, splash, etc...) you could do a coating ad-hoc.
They were out of stock when I ordered the Bourbon for my Alpine Green 13 Pro. I am sure the Sienna will look awesome as well!
It does. I own both and used the rustic brown as my daily driver for a while, but I scuffed it several times and felt guilty about it lol. Both are gorgeous, though.
It looks like it’s out of stock. They brought it back a few weeks ago, so maybe they’ll do it again if they see the demand.
Hi, for anyone who have this cases
Im looking to buy a new leather case for my 13 PM
I need strong magsafe magnet as i always use MOFT wallet
Currently im using apple leather, magnet strength wise is ok, not very good but not bad either, did try the enzo, the magnet on that case is almost non existent.
Anyone who use nomad leather case how is the magnet strength? Is it better or worse than the apple leather ?
Thank you

Best way to learn about Nomad's sales is to subscribe to their mailing list.
As far as such subscriptions go, they're relatively innocuous. They'll send emails about sales, new products, and the occasional "outdoorsy" topics they identify with, but only on occasion, and not like the sites that send one (or more) emails daily. or at regular frequency.
I just tried both with apple magsafe charger and I would say apple case is a touch stronger.
from my experience
Apple leather case has a strongest MagSafe strength
Apple > Nomad > Andar
for Non-leather case I think Pitaka has the strongest magnet
Got some problem with my 5 months old Nomad Modern Case for 13PM. Bought it from pre-seller in Hungary. I have some issues with the buttons. I got a new one for free!!! It is perfect! Can’t wait to see the patina.
Dang that Apple case looks sweet! What was your method for getting it looking that way?
Yes, indeed. No treatment except for some sunbaths. Original picture was from 21st January. Maybe in direct sunlight it does not look that dark.

Just stripped the coating off with alcohol wipes and reconditioned it with a neutral conditioner. I clean my phone case frequently since I work in the hospital so that may have accelerated the wear on the leather case. Nonetheless, it’s still a step below the saddle brown of the 8/X/11 era of Apple leather cases.
