I bought the Lucrin Leather Sleeve in Royal Blue. I like it but should probably have gone with Navy blue instead.

The construction quality and leather is excellent. They also have a grained leather, goat leather, ostrich, and alligator grain options.

Some comment on using a sleeve. I like the sleeve because I prefer to use the phone caseless. However it’s always good to have some protection while the phone is in your pocket - to protect it from your keys and also to ensure you have some protection if it falls out of your pocket.

I realize this approach is more risky than a case, but I do have AppleCare plus!
 
That looks real nice! I’ve been wanting to get a sleeve, there’s just a lot of options out there. I see that the Lucrin sleeves have a microfiber lining. Would you say that an interior lining is a must have for a sleeve, or would just straight leather be fine as well? I just don’t know how leather only would fare with keeping the screen free of dust and stuff.

I think the microfiber lining is a must have. It really does a nice job of ensuring the phone emerges from the sleep dust free. It also can remove light smudges.

That’s what I was thinking. Appreciate the feedback!
