I'd like to order one of these Bull Strap magsafe wallets but I worry that the magnets aren't strong enough (some Amazon reviewers were quite negative). Have they worked well for you?

Sorry, I don't have any BS products, I was just commenting that they do MagSafe wallets

id say inaccurate. I ordered one a while back and never used it because it felt too bulky in for me. Definitely feels premium tho. Best magnets I’ve seen in a wallet are the Louis Vuitton wallet magnets followed by bullstrap then apple wallet in third. Bullstrap is just too thick for me so I never used it.

It will only get better with age. I have been using my tan LC case as my daily since last February. It is the best case since my IPX leather case. I put some lexol leather conditioner on mine and it is really soft now. It is aging really well also. I have tried several leather cases and I can’t see why anyone would pay more than the LC case.
How often do you condition your LC case?

thanks for the feedback! I'll buy your Bullstrap wallet if you're looking to move it along :)
 
Hello All

Long time lurker, first time posting (I think).

Does anyone have concerns their RYAN London closed bottom case, may cause marks on the aluminium band of the iPhone 16 pro/max?

Mine is an extremely tight fit - very difficult to remove!

*Titanium band

No you should be fine, the insides are covered with material. I’ve never had any leather case scratch the frame of any iPhone.

Thank you!

The perils of trying to do more than one thing at a time, it is of course titanium band :)

Hope everyone gets what they paid for from bullstrap. Been reading on Reddit about the quality control problems and colors not matching up which bullstrap admitted to.

Bullstrap has been a mess for years. The quality control is horrendous. I keep trying them and getting let down. Always return to Ryan London. Their cases fit better, have better buttons, and leather quality IMO.

How did you color the  gold? Did you laser engrave or Cricut a sticker of the Apple logo?
 
I left something in my basket with Bullstrap and got an email tempting me with 10% discount using code NONCOMMITTALTYPE.

They then emailed me again offering an additional 10% discount with code CYBERWEEK30 (for next 12 hrs only)
 
Ocean 16PM contemporary came in yesterday after ordering 9/10. Very pleased with the case and here are pics…

Yep. Just use it and the leather will smooth, soften, and darken from the oils in your skin. Won’t take long at all.

Quick follow up that no one asked for haha. So just as my LC was starting to do all of the above the thin area above the charging port snapped as I was removing the phone. TBF I had noticed the bottom corners were a little off and that it bulged a bit around said port area but felt that, since it's somewhat malleable leather, it may eventually conform to the phone. At first I was going to chalk it up to a wasted twenty bucks and move on to something else but decided to drop LC a message/pic of the damage through Amazon. And I'm here to sing their CS praises! They responded within an hour and couldn't have been cooler or more apologetic and offered me an immediate replacement that I received days later. Did not expect that given their price point but it was refreshing to not be argued with by CS or need to exchange endless messages. The new one seems solid although I can feel a slight bump beneath the surface of that thin charging port area. Probably just where the frame connects but I'll be extra careful when removing the phone 👍
