Leather Cases - Patina Proud Photos

I've been reading the last few pages an holy ***k. That Slate from BS is gorgeous!

I was so close to pull the trigger for the Maverick untli now.

Ordered myself a Bandwerk X case, should be here by the end of the week

EDIT - Cancelled the order as I won't be happy unless its full leather.

Just fyi they don’t have a button for the action button. It’s a cutout. Obviously won’t matter if you don’t have the latest pro phones.
 
Does anyone here use Andar’s leather cream? I’m planning on buying my first Andar case and thinking if I should get their leather cream as well.

Will it change the color at all? Does it excel patina or slow patina? I’d like to keep the original color as long as possible, any suggestions?

Yeah I love their leather cream. It gives the case a nice feel and takes the new slippery feeling away. It definitely doesn’t speed up the patina but I can’t say it slows it down either. Here is a pic of my Keyway whisky, the one on the right I used for about 3 or 4 weeks and applied the leather cream 4 or 5 times. I typically don’t do it that much but my baby scratched my case up so I was trying to heal the leather quicker. The one on the left is brand new that Keyway sent me because I had an issue with moisture getting in around the X.

Thanks, I appreciate the pics for comparison. Looks like no change in color with leather cream applied.

I have the 15 Pro but honestly, never use the action button.
 
Anyone had their Bare leather case ship yet? I placed an order at the start of December and they said it’d be shipping between the 10th-18th or something like that.

Not sure if there’s been a delay

It looks much more saturated in person. Here a few artificial light shots to compare. Still not a great representation but I can assure you it’s gorgeous.

Unfortunately I’ve had to install a button extender (folded up paper) because the power button is mushy.

My Sienna I got delivered on Sunday had a funky power button while all other buttons on the left side were perfect. I emailed support yesterday late afternoon and when I woke up this morning there was an email they are sending me another. Doesn’t hurt to reach out if it bothers you.
