It had a pretty noticeable defect, so I swapped it for another case. The 2nd looks fine (hehe).
It’s a weird feel, but I wouldn’t go as far as “suede like”. It rougher than that but still feels nice.
I’d recommend it.
Got a tip for us?

Mine got delivered today! Taupe. It's a very interesting case, very definitely woven and not suede like to me. It feels and looks like a literal fine woven thread. I like it, but it's definitely not the same as leather.

Yes, definitely a permanent scratch.
The 2nd case looks flawlesss.
Also I tried to put my 12 pro in the case and that was a no go. Sides are too narrow on the case.
My blue woven was delivered yesterday, feels super cheap and the fabric feels awful to me. Reminds me of those cheap plastic toys from the 80s with the short fuzz.

Extremely easily! And it becomes permanently scratched. You can accidentally move your fingernail on it and that mark will now live there.

I personally am not too concerned about this as a fingernail can permanently scratch leather as well. However, I do worry about snagging the material and causing a tear/run. So we'll have to see how it lasts over time. I ordered one for my (hopefully soon to arrive) iPhone 15 Pro. I can take a one-time chance on $59, so we'll see. If it doesn't hold up, I won't be buying any additional colors.
