After one day of use:
I’ve noticed that the navy leather is much more smooth and prone to scratches. The green one has more of a texture so is holding up better. I don’t think I like the blue, especially only after one day.

That type of scratch usually just rubs out - you can try with a slightly wet finger. Or, easier, just leave them and eventually the entire back will be full of similar scratches giving it a nice worn look. In my opinion, obviously.
How old is that red case?

That reminds me of my Nomad rugged cases I have for my xr. I like the scratches. 😁
I like when it starts to wear in with some marks ..
You can use a soft horse hair brush to clean and shine, and there are many clear leather shoe polishes
Got a midnight blue yesterday so this is a day 1 pic, will update when patina starts developing!
That looks like it came with some patina. How's it look with the MG lens housing?
No patina, maybe just the lighting, looks 100% the same colour at the minute. Looks fine, don't really see it when looking at the front!
Looks awesome!!Sorry for the horrible quality, black leather case on SG 11 Pro
I got both the Forest Green and Midnight Blue leather cases. I thought I’d love the green, and it’s cool/different, but maybe I’m more of a blue guy, because that one has stayed on my 11 Pro the longest so far...
The yellow is intriguing too... Just not sure I would dig something that bright. But I love how it looks in your pictures here...

I really want the black leather case, but I’m trying to commit to the saddle brown. I’ve never been able to go a week without ordering or swapping out cases on my previous phones. So, if I don’t have multiple cases I am kind of forcing myself to put the time into the saddle brown. 😁😁
Hi, heres my midnight green 11 Pro, with product Red leather case, both are 7 days old.
And sure I adore your cases too guys!

Looks like yours is starting to patina a little on the sides. Nice!!
Went ahead an upgraded to the Black Leather Folio. The wallet capabilities better suit my day to day use (Storing loyalty cards, transport cards and anything else that cant be put in a digital wallet)

This same picture has been all over Reddit for weeks. You're internet famous (or are you?)!!
just bought the black leather case for my midnight green Max Pro. I tried this color, saddle brown and the forest green at the store and this color combo seemed to be the best IMO (2nd, Forest green),

You can’t avoid the scratches if you’ve got nails of any length. I gouge my case daily but as you say, it works.
