Damn. Yesterday it was 10/31 now 11/15. Changes by the day. That is probably an extra conservative date so they don’t find themselves backtracking again. I will say they did hook me up for the inconvenience as he mentioned so they are trying to make it right at least.
I asked for a partial discount. We'll see what they say.

Wanted one but the open bottom…

I just got my kings loot executive blue leather case for the 13 pro in the mail. The leather quality is extremely nice and has the strong leather smell. Bottom is covered and buttons are perfect! The lip is just the same as the apple leather case. It’s a little dark (comparable to the midnight leather case). This is just like the apple leather case but with way better quality of leather. 👍🏼
Are these available for 14 pro?

So the Ryan London is pretty decent, snug fit, nice black metal buttons that are clicky and Magsafe is as strong as Apples offerings.

Now...do I cancel bullstrap and do this...
After he posted this I thought the same exact thing...I am impatient and don't feel like waiting. So that video you posted is for the iPhone 14 which on their site still has the Nov 15 date. The Pro Max (which I am not sure if that is what is being referred to in the video) still show 10/31 like I was told yesterday. But this RL one is shipping today so tough choice.

I would have already ordered the RL if it weren't for that Bullstrap warranty. I've asked for a partial refund, we'll see what they say.

I would just deal with them through live chat. I am not sure if those reps are different than ones answering emails but they were very responsive and helpful making things right. Give it a try.
 
What are they doing for you guys? I pre ordered batch 1 and get emails all the time but nothing ever about shipping/order status.

Doesn't hurt to reach out via chat as a general inquiry about the latest status like I mentioned to the other user. See what they say.
 
That’s not a Blackbrook case he got, that’s a knock off or something. I literally just received my Barlow case yesterday and it looks NOTHING like that. The case is fully leather, no black plastic nowhere. If you want black plastic just stick with Apple’s leather case.
Not a knockoff. Unless they are selling knockoffs directly from their site.
 
Just grabbed the Lonli Edition for my iPhone 14 Pro.
I paid ~$23, but it's on Amazon now for about ~$21. I figured it was cheap enough to give it a shot without being out too much.

I get a nice little snap on all 4 corners, and the case fits TIGHT. It definitely feels way more protective than the official Apple leather case (the bottom corners of my phone pop out of the Apple cases way too easily). The magnets in it are also pretty strong.

They say it's "made of premium European full grain leather", but it's coated with something that has a rubbery/plastic feel. I guess it's supposed to protect the material, but it makes it really slippery, unfortunately.
