Here is slate on natural titanium:

First closed bottom with a non-metal camera ring too. Although the metal ring probably protects it more, the sound it makes when dropped is just 😬

It's actually one of the reasons I stopped using my leather case. That and it does poorly around water even with the balming cream. I will go back to it eventually when I'm bored but in the meantime, I've ordered a Caudabe Sheath and giving it a try. Nobody online can give a proper analogy on how it feels aside from "grippy" and "textured" so I'm going to have to try it myself.

My RL open bottom came in today and I gotta say I think I like the Andar more. Checks off more of the boxes for me.

RL leather feels nice, good color. Fit feels worse, buttons feels worse. No preference between open or closed bottom so that’s equal. Circular Magnets feel the same but can’t tell if the RL has the alignment magnet.

Both nice but my turquoise Andar is the top for me right now

If their normal leather cases are 85/90, it’ll be easily $100-110. Getting up there with the spigen anzo leather case (I think that’s what it’s called).
 
I might be being very nit picky here but my new Slate case seems to have one spot that is stained, presumably from the dying process. Am I overthinking this? Tell me I’m overthinking this.

It is indeed an interesting texture. Best I could describe it is a miniaturized popcorn concrete wall. See if you'll agree when yours arrived:D
 
If anyone’s interested in a black bare case for the 15 pro max and doesn’t feel like waiting a month, I’ve got an extra one that’s brand new/unopened. Switched from the 15 pro max to the 15 pro so I no longer have a use for it. Make me an offer.

It just arrived! Ive only had it for a day but I think it’s my new favorite case.

Texture wise, it feels kind of like a band-aid laid on top of TPU.

Bullstrap cases look great but their quality control is terrible lol. I had a scratch like that on one of my brand-new cases too.
