I tried a leather case from Blackbrook for my iPhone 14 Pro and am genuinely blown away by how good the leather is. Out the box it looked a little rough, ngl, and felt more like suede than leather. But I found out it this was bc it is unfinished leather. I’ve got to say, after almost a month of use, it has an amazing patina on it and now feels like classic supple leather. If you like natural materials, you’ll love this. It’s full grain leather. It also made my whole room smell like leather when I took it out the box.
The first pic is day 1 and second and third pics are after about a month.

looks fantastic.

Anyone get any shipping updates from Bullstrap yesterday on their orders?
I have not, but I did get an email back last night saying they were able to switch my order out to the correct case. I'm assuming since they weren't sure they'd be able to do it they were close to shipping but who knows.
 
Ryan London needs to get better quality control. For the price having a imprint on the case (twice). Should not happen. Especially after having contact with themself; saying they would solve it by sending another case. That should be the perfect case. Not twice the same error…

Still I believe in Ryan London.

Really?? That's bad. Are you returning that one too? I will most likely get a RL case at some point but there's no way I would accept that.

It’s minimal. Only visible in some light. Nothing heavy. Not worth the exchange. I’m sure there will come more scuffs and marks on the case.

I just got a shipping notification from Bullstrap for my order.
 
Does it have that leather smell? Buttons look nice on this one. Is that a metal ring around the camera? Nice touch if so.
It smelled like a new leather shoe when I took it out the box. Yeah there’s a metal ring around the camera too. I was looking for a case with silver colored metal buttons and ring and this did not disappoint.

Good to know. It is making me want to try this vs. the Apple leather case.
 
Heres my iPhone 11 leather case from Geometric Goods after 6 months of daily use. First photo is when it was new in May 2022.

What phone/case is headed your way? I'm waiting for the Sienna for the 14 pro. I've got a feeling I've got a couple of more weeks to wait.
I ordered the Sienna for the 14 Pro Max. Will be interesting to see if that is what I am actually getting though 😂
 
Im not a fan of bottom cutout on the RL and BullStrap.
Never tried andar before
Now im thinking to get one, how is the fit vs apple leather ? and also how strong is the magnet compared to apple leather?

Lastly, anyone using grey andar with their deep purple pro ?
