I have seen alcantara be pretty durable from car interiors. Of course, this case may not be made out of the same tier of quality, but I'm willing to give it a shot. I think durability isn't so clear cut, especially since we have never handled these cases.
This was from February (3 months old), it's probably just a hair darker now at 9 months.
Yea seriously lol.... I personally don't care if its top grain or full grain, they still have the best overall leather case for the iPhone in my opinion.
Yep, whatever BS has used in the past has been great be it Full or Top I don't know. All I know is that they age beautifully and feel great in the hand. My issue with BS is their prices, shipping and having to pay duty on those insane prices. That's why I'm not buying BS this time. But the quality of the BS case is great, no doubts about it.
I remember when the prices shot up around the 12PM era. I got a 12pm case from them for like $60 but $90 is pushing it imo. Their cases are great though, i’ve always loved the quality. But after everything getting super expensive it’s a turnoff.

That was actually me asking after reading about it here.
Each to their own pretty much summarises it, I agree with you. Apple leather cases used to be open bottom too though and I prefer that over fully closed. The old Apple leather cases aged so nicely and also quite slowly, as high quality leather is “supposed” to patina. Some of these other cases turn multiple shades darker in a matter of weeks and it is completely even “patina” too. That’s not how real patina even works, it’s never even. It all feels fishy to me.This comment is rather funny as I can go back pages upon pages of everyone b****ing about the Apple leather cases over and over, and anytime anyone posts about them they say how ugly and poor quality they are. Just because you are a fan boy of Bullstrap doesn’t mean their without criticism. Hell I acknowledge the Apple leather case post the 11 pro don’t age well, but that doesn’t stop me from loving them.
Yourself and the few others that just love BS can enjoy them, but it’s completely fair to question them. They are far from perfect, and any iPhone case that cost $85 has every right to be question and criticized. Holding one, it sure doesn’t feel like $85. It sure doesn’t fit the iPhone like an Apple leather case, and the bottom is open. Lifetime warranty makes up for a few of those things, but still $85 is pretty outrageous for iPhone case. It’s not that good of quality. Andar has just as good leather quality, and for me better. They only cost $55.
If you live in the US, you should never pay $85 for it. You can easily find a 15-20% off promo code or you can setup an account and do the few items to get a $20 off reward. On top of either of those, request a cosmetic replacement and sell one of them and you have a case for next to nothing. It’s funny in this thread people always quoting the full cost, but if you do what’s above you never pay anywhere near that. Out of the US I know their shipping cost sucks.
