The late September/early October estimate was only for the new Paragon case.
They’re probably just backlogged with the opening day flood of orders.Hope Caudabe is not selling something they don't have
Yea, I've ordered cases from them before on a Friday and they didn't ship until Monday. Hopefully we will all see tracking numbers tomorrow.
Pulled the trigger on this one. Not cheap but love the design.

Has anyone ever owned a Carved iPhone case? Some really unique designs there but I've never heard of them (Facebook seems to know that I'm shopping for cases, ugh...).

Did you consider getting the Spigen case that does have a Capture button cover? Looks a little bulky for me but there's a few of this one with their button cover:
Should pay more attention!
Has anyone got a UK link for this?
I’m considering going caseless and just having a screen protector!
Mous offered me a replacement, but ignored my demand for a refund. I have mailed them again. I don't need more scratchy cases. I'm just not going to pay 60 EUR for a product I don't trust.
Several of the Caudate cases say they ship in late Sep. or in Oct., whether that's because they sold out of launch supply or aren't ready yet.Hope Caudabe is not selling something they don't have
And you may know but: Many case makers take orders before the product arrives, as they don't receive official specs from Apple and have to wait for reliable supplier leaks/rumors/CAD files. Very few companies receive information from Apple to help them design cases before launch, and to survive, many of them have no real choice but to have cases ship late.
It seems like Otterbox, and possibly Spigen, get at least some pre-release guidance from Apple. Others are on their own for sure. In my experience, it’s prudent to order either a cheap case or an official Apple case early on, then only consider premium third-party cases once they’ve had time to clean up any design flaws, particularly on a year when a new button is introduced. Just my opinion, some will differ which is fine of course. 😊
I’ve gone for a Pitaka again this year. This case will be for my Desert 16 PM.
Air 2 also showing pre order with a ship date of Oct 8th
Hoping it's not shiny on the back as it states matte in the description - if it's shiny it's going straight back.
Just curious, what's the difference is quality between the Ryan London open-bottom and closed-bottom cases?
To me, the leather open-bottom case just feels much more supple and premium than the closed-bottom. the closed-bottom one almost felt like it had some sort of weird coating on it that made the case feel much dryer. I also prefer the leather-wrapped camera bump vs the metal camera ring.
Man, that is a pretty case! It’s going to be sick with Desert!
