I’m officially sold on the Bullstrap cases… photos posted of day 1 vs day 9… already darkening around the sides and on the back where my hands constantly are. The quality is night and day over apples cases, Nomad is nice but has a rugged look to it, I wanted something a little more classy. The leather still smells amazing, the touch is warm and grippy during the day, the buttons are above most to all of the cases I’ve tried. This will not be the last bullstrap case I ever buy. It’s pricier, but the quality is there.

The MagSafe magnets are great, I have a car mount that I use MagSafe for and charging of course. I’ve had some phones fall off the mount this one holds strong. I’ve dropped the case once so far, it caused some slight damage on the volume side of the case, but it’s leather, that’s to be expected. 10/10 would recommend if you’re on the fence about this one.
 
I wish the Bullstrap would be available in Germany... I cant find a case that is nice
For Germany I went with wiiuka its a german company based in berlin and they have a product called skiin more and the leather really feels fantastic.
Will upload some pictures later :)

Looks awesome! Have you ever tried Andar's cases in the past for comparison? This year they have the bottom closed which is a positive.
 
Wow they got back to me fast and said I should be notified when they send out a new one… okay this return policy alone is worth the asking price!
Just an update -- they never ended up sending me the replacement lmao, probably realized I was from Canada after the fect... oh well, I take that back about the return policy, maybe if you're form the US 😁 do not buy the bullstrap case for the warranty if you're not from the US lol.

Are you in the UK? Where did you but from?
 
Glad I returned mine - that will soon turn into a mess based on my exerience of the later generation of iPhone cases. The corners and edges turn a worn looking matt black. Shocked it is going so quickly, I would return it if you can for what they cost.

Have you seen it happen on this year’s case?

Try Ryan London; their cases are identical to Bullstrap other than logos.

Really wished Ryan London did also make a color as the dune (sand color) for Bullstrap. Really like that color, but little too expensive with shipping and import costs.

Maybe I just have to find myself a good excuse. 🙃
 
I had a leather SENA wallet case on my iPhone XS Max which held up extremely well. But I upgraded and am looking for a new leather MagSafe case and wallet for the iPhone 14 Pro Max. I'm mostly concerned about the wallet sliding off in my pocket given the slipperiness of leather. Does the Bullstrap wallet stay securely attached?
 
Nice shots.

Mine is also starting to ‘patina’ or darken…. Not sure that’s a good thing after just over a week’s use 😬

It’ll become a midnight case in two weeks
How are you guys getting it to darken so quickly lol. Grabbed an orange leather on launch its barely darkened, maybe just the slightest uniform shade all around lol. Wishing I picked up an ink case, sold out all around me right now

Did the alcohol wipe and leather conditioner on my ink case today on the back and very little on the sides. Looks good to me initially and more grip which is nice.

Honestly though I am always case less except when my daughter has my phone. We will see how this step changes the look over the next few weeks and if it gets better maybe I will use a case more.
