Made of real wood, the Carved Traveler Wood Case for the iPhone 6 offers several designs on their selection wood as well as the ability to throw on custom designs of your choice.

The Traveler series offers a slight bump in improvement from their slim line on protection with the rubber bumper and a studded texture for additional grip. I found it nice to hold in the hand, it sort of feels like holding a BMX bicycle hand grip for anyone that wants a comparison.

We did a light scratch/durability test on the wood which they claimed to have a special coating that will help it last for years and found that it did hold up to that claim, only showing slight signs of scratches but with the wood and engraved design fully intact.

It wasn't all perfect, though this is more personal taste and probably a functional reason to why they did this, we didn't like the two tone black rubber they used. It gave off a cheap look and we would've preferred a single matte black tone.

The port cut outs for the audio and Lightning cables were also quite precise, almost exactly fitting the included Apple accessories, which may not be a problem for most, but anyone with third party accessories may find issues connecting.
