I cured my leather case with coconut oil several days in a row and the result is an amazing in hand feel and it looks great in midnight blue almost black. Love the look, love the feel, love the case.


Did the exact same thing to my saddle brown. I've posted the pictures on the main Apple leather thread.
Awesome grip with tanned look.

Has anyone tried the coconut oil trick with sea blue? I'd like a blue in between midnight blue and sea blue so I'm curious how that would look.

Ok, I thought it was just me. Decided to get the Midnight Blue 7+ case tonight for my new phone coming. The first leather case I purchased. Yeah this thing is extremely slippery! I really do fear the phone will fly out of my hand with this thing on it!

I've had the Silicone case for the 6+ since forever, that has grip.

Got a 7 plus and leather case on Monday felt slippery at first but a few days later and it's already felling better and has some grip
