I know there are a lot of clear cases out there, but which one is the best one that will not only showcase the gold, but also provide good protection?
Got a tip for us?

What is the case for the gold 5S?

Your best bet would probably be a clear TPU case from Luvvitt. I know there's the Power Support Air Jacket but it's just to keep the phone thin and provides little protection, only against scratches. Same with the Caudabe Veil. I know Spigen has a wide variety of cases, including clear. I would suggest checking them out.

My wife has the frost Caudabe Veil on her gold iPhone. It looks very good. The gold is slightly washed out if you compare it with a naked iPhone, but otherwise it's hard to tell.
