Just picked this up at my local best buy. According to Vaja, each Nuova Pelle is meticulously crafted by hand out of a single piece of our premium Bridge Leather for increased strength, durability and character.

Overall, feels and smells great!

Nice! If it had a cut out in the front for the ear piece, I'd be sold! I would like to make calls with the case closed.
 
I ordered mine last saturday from their website.
Took the London Bridge because that color become much more beautiful with age.
Manufacturing: 20 business days.
Another 22 days to go :)
For the moment i've their pouch.
Very pleased with that too, but the pelle is a bit more classy in my opinion.
Regards.

Did BB just start carrying these!?!?!? I was just there last week and the only high end cases were Mophie's.

I really hope they have them at my local BB!!!
 
I have had my eye on that case for awhile.

The one problem (for me) I see is durability. When you fold over the top to the back to make a phone call does the leather crease badly?

It seems like a nice case for someone who goes to work in a suit.
 
Thanks for the compliments everyone. The case is holding up great. I went to best buy a few days ago and was just browsing around. I was surprised when I saw that they actually carried anything by Vaja. All they had was this case and it was the last one left. I figured I'd give it a try. After all, like some previously stated these cases take a while to produce and typically take about 1 month to receive after you order one from the Vaja website. I couldn't pass up the opportunity. The case has been holding up well. The leather doesn't crease up much at all where it bends to open. It's really top notch quality and top notch leather. Feels great, classy look and have received many compliments from co-workers and friends. Cheers!
