Andar Aspen in tech blue, not really sure how I feel about the way patina is going but it might be too soon to tell. Seems to be getting lighter on some parts. Case fits great tho

Day 1

On the other hand, ordered my lucky coin on Amazon and got it the same day! Really loving the feel of this case, gonna give it a month and decide which will be my daily driver

Got my Bluebonnet in today. Overall, I'm digging it. Not super into the copper-colored buttons but the case fits really well. No creaking in the corners like my Andar. The leather smells and feels just as nice as previous Bullstrap cases I've owned.

As far as I know, this case and Lonli are the only leather cases with a leather-wrapped camera plateau (with the wide cutout).

Received my Bluebonnet as well. I have to say, it was worth the wait. Excellent quality, fit and finish. And that leather smell is perfection!
When did both of you place your orders?
 
Dang... I replied to the automated CEO "thank you" message that's sent out right after you order and asked when the cases were expected to ship. The CEO then replied the next day saying my case would be shipping out tomorrow.

Do you also have the Lonli Edition? This looks exactly like my Lonli edition, except that mine is black. Curious if anyone has both. There is a $30 difference between the two cases. I’d be curious to see a comparison given the price difference. Is this another Bullstrap/Lucky coin situation, where both cases are made in the same factory in China?

Bluebonnet claims their cases are made here in Austin, Texas. Those that have received their cases care to share where they were shipped from?

Mine was definitely shipped straight from Texas. I’m pretty sure they’re legit.

Could be they get them from China to their Texas location, then ship out from there. Maybe I’m too cynical, but the similarities between Lonli Edition, Bellroy and Bluebonnet suggests to me that they were all made in the same place.

Nice. Ordered mine Sept 15th. Still no tracking lol

I ordered Sept. 18th and also haven’t gotten any tracking. I did email them right after ordering to ask if they could apply a discount code retroactively, which they did promptly.

I just sent them an email to see what’s up. I’m liking my LC (the covered camera bump has grown on me), but have held high hopes for the BB being the best. I just hope it isn’t the same as the Lonli edition, which I found too thick and the leather too processed (and pink for the saddle brown).

Hopefully bugging them will get mine to ship ASAP 🤷🏻‍♂️

the back of the box literally says made in China. Mine shipped from a suburb of Dallas. Their site says "Born in Austin" which I'm assuming means the company was founded there and they sell cases from a supplier in China. Could be a Ryan London situation where they make some leather goods in Austin but their cases are from overseas.

Thanks! I will keep my green TechWoven and see what’s new for the 18 pro max next year.

After looking up the Lonli Edition on Amazon, the only discrepancy I notice is that the Bluebonnet doesn't have an alignment magnet below the magsafe ring on the interior of the case. The topic has been beaten to death but at this point I just assume every single one of these companies is getting their supply from one of like 5 different suppliers and re-badging them.
