which leather smart cover goes best with a black ipad 2?

I want the red one too but there weren't any in the apple store and online store ships in 3-4 weeks. any way I can find it elsewhere??
 
For casual, i run a grey cover, black pad,icarbon back or xgear carbon....Had a blk leather ordered but cancelled.....

For formal business, a black portenzo

I got the tan: it looks really classy with the black ipad. However, i have glanced over a couple of times and thought to myself...'hmm..that kinda looks like cardboard.'

I went with the tan, and then I conditioned it with leather conditioner (I used some old Dr. Martens neutral "dubbin") to give it a deep, rich look.
It turned out nice.
I also usually stick to all black, but I wanted something a little different but still professional. I'm very happy with the tan.

Edit: the attached pics look shinier than it really is. It actually has kind of a dry natural look to it.

Wow! I really like that and never thought of treating the leather myself. Thanks for sharing this! I'm partial to the "worn/aged" look, but not heavily distressed. Would be great to go darker but concerned about how much treatment these things can take.

Well, this leaves me in a quandary on what to get... decisions, decisions! decisions!!!
