This happens a lot with my silicone case. I noticed it especially more with lighter color cases. I'm getting a Saddle Brown case today and I'll report back.
Got a tip for us?

Yeah! Glad I'm not the only one. I thought it was cause my pockets had extra lint in them haha
It is very dark.
It's last year's saddle brown. She got it for free at the Apple Store because we had to wait so long for our appointment. And because we got the manager involved.
Anyone else seen a problem with the volume up button? Press it just a bit too far down and it presses the volume down button instead, Finding it a bit annoying. Do I have a dodgy case? Video: https://vid.me/iCDX
Okay ... just got my replacement Sea Blue and it's worse than my first one. The leather has noticeable creases on the back. The case also doesn't fine towards the bottom of the case. I had 0 of these issues on my Tan case, which I returned. It's crazy how 2 of my Sea Blue haven't been nowhere near the quality and fit of my Tan Apple leather case.
Also, picked up a brown Nomad case. I'm liking the feel of the case. Not as slippery as the Apple case. My only issue with this case, is accessing the ringer on/off switch. I have to use my index finger versus my thumb.
Picture overload below. I also but both the Sea Blue and Nomad case on my brothers rose gold for those that need a reference.

Tried it just now, no issue. Why are you pressing it like that? The buttons are connected to the same piece of leather...
Looks like it's not seated all the way. Maybe check your next case in the store before you leave.
I would. If I could. This is the Sea Blue and none are available in store. It's only available online with the longest lead times for shipping out of all the leather cases ☹️. This is my second shipped Sea Blue.
I would love to check before I buy like I did with my Nomad or Tan case but sadly, I can't.
My Sea Blue isn't as creased as that. That sucks you had such bad luck. I did buy a Tan leather Apple case as well as a secondary, I ended up returning that one as I just couldn't get over how easily it absorbed colours from my jeans. Sucks.
Just tried mine and I have the same issue, never noticed until you pointed it out. I also have another issue with not being able to access the mute switch all the time.
Had my case for a week now and still love it. The markings on the back, I've not given any thought to, glad I didn't send it back for another. Fits great, the storm grey looks amazing with the matte black and in no way do I find it slippy.
Was going to get the navy blue but saw the tan in person and fell in love. Love how thin the phone still feels.
I have the Apple Storm Gray and I've looked at the Nomad in store...I can say the Nomad is much darker and to me looks more like black than gray. I don't think the Nomad curves inwards as much as the Apple if that's what you mean but it does have a raised lip to protect the screen.
Thanks for the comment. I have noticed dust on the edges too and wondered what was up with that as my old 6s never showed it. It was white though, so I just didn't see it but I'm guessing it was there. The black front now puts it in direct completion with a Swiffer for it's dust gathering abilities LOL.
Also got the Saddle Brown Leather case. Can't wait for it to show some of the aging as others have gotten. Never really noticed any patina developing on my blue leather case on the 6s. It probably darkened, but it just looks so much better on the brown
Just got the Sea Blue case for the 7 Plus. Anyone else's up & down volume rocker buttons feel different from one another? The bottom button feels nice and tactile but the upper button feels a bit mushy and doesn't sound as "clicky." The sleep/wake button matches the feel and sound of the bottom button.
