BS case has shipped and will be Monday. Pretty excited to see what it brings. That is until LC decides to do something. Looking forward to the open bottom, and crossing my fingers that the camera control cutout is good enough.

Like many this year, I am actually really enjoying the Apple silicone case. Surprising, very surprising.
did you get the leather case from Decoded?
 
I like the cutout on the Andar, and after seeing the horrendous cutout on that Mujjo, makes me wary of the Bullstrap cutout too...will have to see what that looks like on device. I think the cutout on the Andar adds a nice flash of the frame, and does so in a relatively clean manner. I also like that it gives my finger something to hook into when I hold the phone in my left hand:

Ditto. That combo looks sweet. Love the my black shining through on the tan.

Is that the navy color? If you can id like to see more pics of it. Thinking about ordering this case. Do you have other cases to compare how thick/thin it is?

How are the buttons? Are they less sharp than last year?
 
This is the question of the last two years. There is no clear cut replacement. A lot of people here love the Luckycoin, but they have not released their 16 series cases. Decoded seems to be another one that comes highly recommended. I have ordered on and it should be here next week. Other than that, cheap ones off Amazon and Aliexpress are about the only other choices for similar to Apple. The hut is still on I think for most.
Dang, it’s a shame to hear that. It doesn’t seem that either of those brands make a slip case either. I guess I’ll try my luck with Lucrin. I’ll be sure to post photos once I get it, and hopefully it’s a decent case 🤞.

Thought they weren’t shipping until November?

Yes, this is the Navy. It's reasonably thin - a little thinner than Bullstrap's cases, and maybe slightly thicker than the old Apple Leather cases. Andar's leather is really nice, but it feels stiff out of the box. From owning several of them over the years, they age wonderfully, and feel very supple once the oils from your hands work into the leather.

The desert TI with the Navy is an amazing combo! Keep us posted on the aging! Looks awesome.

It doesn’t look that blue in real life does it? Even then the picture is darker than the marketing picture.

Also the pictures for 15 and 16 is crazy.

Hopefully Andar makes their cases with a solid button and release it with their turquoise color. Instant buy.
 
Has anyone ordered or received the new nomad traditional all leather case? I ordered for the 15 pro, can’t wait to try it
 
Anyone tried the Nomad Traditional Leather case? I have the silicone in Lake Green but I really miss the leather feel so was hoping that the cut out of the Nomad was big enough to give proper access to using the new camera control.
