67,50 EUR, shipping included. Hnnn, it would have been worth if it would be September now. I think I’ll hold off and will buy one when the iPhone 17 series will arrive. But I would love the maroon case.
Yep I get your point, but it’s even cheaper than Bullstrap cutout, and Ryan London Close Bottom. And at the moment the only case with leather camera ring with cc button. Looking forward to see real photos of it.
 
Funny
Alex Gildfinch announced today their open bottom case with CC button.
Went for it straight away.
I have a Ryan London, but never really liked the metal frame around the camera and the leather quality was lower compactor my iPhone 15 pro max from RL.
So now, finally, an open bottom CC case.
I had the one from Alex Goldfinch without the button and like it a lot, apart from the missing button.

I can't tell if I like the Alex Goldfinch logo more or less than the Bullstrap one. I'm not too fond of either. Bullstrap still hasn't released a CC button have they?

That’s a pity. Open bottom is the only reason I haven’t pulled the trigger on an Alex Goldfinch. Would have loved to see the CC button added on a closed bottom variant like Ryan London did.

haha, im the opposite, I tend to prefer logos, and both looks to me fire. Im more into the Alex Goldfinch, bottom location, seems a bit more elegant, in person is very pleasant and subtle. Bullstrap is a bit more intrusive ( something that I don't dislike actually)

They sent me the pic.
I had returned my first AG case because I couldn’t deal with the cut out. They were very nice to deal with and we kept communicating.
I like that they didn’t change the design at all, just added a button.
Looking forward to it!
Cheers

Yesterday I Just received my Alex Goldfinch CC Button. Georgeous! it is in fact a more refined version, is a bit thinner than previous cutout version and cc button works flawlessly. At first cc button was a bit “hard” if that makes any sense. But once you have the case on 1 day, and press it some times, it softens, and works perfect and fluid! One thing that I’ve noticed is that due to its design( it does not protrude, it sits flush with the case, even a bit recessed) it’s not easy to accidentally press it, very nice, actually a great balance. Well, quite happy, I think that I’ve personally have found the best leather case ( for me ) the only “con” for some would be the open bottom design, I’m in between OB and CB, I would like to see them release a cc button CB case.

But all in all, if OB design fits you, here it is the best leather case at the moment.

Nice, I ordered the black color.

That case is STUNNING. If the 17 wasn’t so close I’d purchase this immediately. Leather looks immaculate.
