new Incipio Feather love it

I purchased the white one from AT$T and the back is now disgustingly dirty, I tried cleaning it with some bleach and now it feels perpetually sticky, I think I'm just going to chock it up as a loss and buy the teal one from another site, I don't care for the logo though.
I just ordered two feathers.....$30 for two...30% after holidays sales.....let see if I like these feathers....

I've had the Incipio Feather (Black) for about 3 months now and although the protection is pretty sufficient, dust has gotten in between the sides and caused the chrome around the phone to become sandblasted
.
It has protected the back flawlessly, however, at the determinant of the chrome bezel.
Anyway, I'm enjoying the case but would love to have that flaw remedied in future product updates.

Feather with Holster/Belt Clip
Hello All, just got an Incipio Feather and would love to pair it up with a holster. Can anyone recommend a holster that works well with the feather, keeps it snug etc...? Any suggestions?

Probably an Incase Folio or a DLO HipCase would work fine.
Also, does anybody know how well this case protects the chrome bezel? I want to get one because the back of my iPhone is getting some scratches and also got some scratches on the bezel from the Incase Slider, so obviously I rather find a case that can protect the back and chrome bezel without scratching either parts.
Incipio feather is "The One"
Just got a turquoise Incipio feather through the post, I love it.
It replaces a tired looking Capsule Rebel Skeleton, which has done me proud, and is one hell of a great case, real eye catching and feels super solid.
The only issue with the rebel is the bulk, I took off the case a few times in recent weeks and decided that I need something thin that fits tight, and is good looking, (like the doris! lol), in keeping with the device).
So after a few hours of research, I was sold on the feather, ilounge gave a pretty good review, B+. But these guys had me sold,

The feather lives up to all expectations. super thin, amazing fit, the edges are perfect, no gaps, no wavy edge, perfect, perfect fit. If you're coordinated enough not to be dropping your iPhone, (I never have) this is the boy.
The turquoise colour I chose rocks. I have a 3G white, and the contrast is great.
Combined with a Zagg screen protector, I think I have the best case/screen combo available right now.
Oh, and had the Zagg full body on for about 3weeks between the Rebel and the feather, the Zagg 3G back cover disappointed on many levels, dirt gets under the edges after a week and the glue at the edges starts to deteriorate (spent ages putting it on). screen cover is ideal though.
Screen protector - go for Zagg or Switcheasy (came with the Rebel), both great.
Incipio Feather - 9.5/10 Absolutely love it

This is a really nice case and fits nicely over my BSE simple back skin.
I alternate the Sunburst Yellow Feather with a green Solo FX. Love both so far.
Oh really?! Some reviews in the past have said it's not possible to fit a skin and the case at the same time because the Feather fits so tightly to the back. But, I believe you. I think it works with only the simple back skin and not the other full backs?
Do you have a hard time getting the case on/off with the BSE simple back on?
Moshi
I am using the Moshi case and love it! Mine is white and it has not discolored at all after 1.5 weeks of use!

It doesn't seem too hard for me to take it off... I'm not sure how it compares to not having the skin though.
I could post pics if you want to see how the buttons line up and how much of the bezel edge is revealed but, for me, it does snap on super easily.
Now getting scratches from Feather (Incipio)
I still love my two Incipio Feathers (one red, one white) but i did a little close examination after having them on for about a month. Let me state first of all that I generally leave them on full time and take them off AT MOST once a week.
Today I noticed that there are vertical scratches (perpendicular to the screen surface around the perimeter of the bezel. While they are minor they are there.
The back looks perfect, unlock my previous phone with an Incase Slider.
This is still my favorite case, but I guess what I'm getting at is there probably isn't a case made that doesn't have the potential for some scratching.
C'est la vie!

Well, my black feather cracked today while taking it off my phone so that I could clean the phone off like I always try to do every couple of days.
I was pretty bumed, but contacted Incipio and they wanted me to email them a picture and said they would then send me out a case to replace it. Pretty cool I think.
Also, for those who care, there are some new "limited colors" for the feather that are now available on their website. 4 different "Neon" colors. Looks like they could be nice. I may order another one just because they really do have great customer service as a lot of people have said.

My black feather should be coming in the mail tomorrow so I'm quite excited. Coming from an iSkin Solo FX case this should take off the added bulk that I did not like
I just got it, and I must say that it is much much better than PowerSupport Air Jacket. I had two PSAJ and they scratch the bezel badly because of the way it is made. The feather gribs the phone perfectly, and the way it is made simply makes it feel like part of the phone. I used to have an Incase Slider, and it scratched the front of the bezel. On top of that I wasn´t crazy about the bulk, until now this the feather is the best case I have had.
