I think it would but the type of leather they use doesn't really distress well. If they come out with a distressed version it'll look amazing.
Got a tip for us?

I love everything but the front lip. My front lip is so black now where I keep it in a pouch.. The back looks great but the front is dark.
Case in a case? I have a pouch but use either the Apple case or the pouch. Why do you need to use both?
No cleaning at all. Just letting it darken/dirty over time.

Ahh yeah mine looks very similar to yours, but with a little more wear on the back.
I got the black case as well and its holding up just like yours. Im very happy with my purchase. I wish the other colors held up like the black case.
Yup, I've had mine 3.5 weeks and it looks just like yours. It has primarily been in the front pocket of a pair of slacks or in the back pocket of a pair of jeans. Loving this case.
Anyone have any "aged" blue photos? Interested in getting it in the phone and for the iPad mini both leather.
I picked up a black one for myself and a brown one for my girlfriend.
I have to say, I like this case a lot. I've been using the Power Support Flat Bumper for a while and, as much as I love it, the FB is uncomfortable in the hand.
This leather case feel great in the hand. The buttons are easier to push than the FB too. I still think the FB looks better (and is made in Japan, not China) but I might stick with the leather.

Why does it matter if it's made in Japan or China?
I've liked the FB from the day I first saw it and have bought a few and am waiting for them to arrive from aliexpress.
That's sweet of you.
Ok I couldn't stand it.. I wanted the Silver or Gold iPhone so bad.. Finally my local BestBuy got in a 3 Silvers with AT&T so I swapped my Space Grey for the Silver.. (Sorry I am like Beyonce, I liked it with the ring on it)
Well since I got the silver phone I had to swap out my Red case for the Brown case!!

I just went to Apple this evening and bought the black leather case. First thoughts is the case is great and the feel and fit is perfect. I just don't think it will last even through simple drops and thinks the plastic will scuff and scratch easily. I'll go back to my Magpul and I might keep it or either return it back to apple.
There is a video of a guy dropping a 5S with the leather back to back at 4 feet, 7 feet, and 10 feet - the iphone looks pretty much flawless after all those drops with this case - so I think you don't have to worry.
