Ok, I'll say it: I'm really liking my Finewoven case

Not true. The leather cases had their weaknesses but the grip, fit and feel in hand were superior. I have a black Apple leather case on my 12mini that I use for testing and there’s just nothing like it.

False, Apple leather cases were a sticky mess, horrible glad they are gone. Cheap leather too, zero patina, just black from grime.

My experience was very different. I gave it another shot even after initially expressing concerns about the build quality. One month in, the buttons were rattling and the squeaking got worse by the day, like the case was getting looser or something. Plus there’s absolutely zero grip. I gave it an honest shot but there’s nothing premium about it. This is no replacement for leather.

You got a dud, mine has zero issues. 8 weeks old.

To each his own. Again, it wasn’t perfect but it clicked more boxes than any other case for my preference.
 
I like my blue FW case. Fits the 15PM perfectly and feels good in the hand. So far one drop onto wood from about 4 feet without damage.

As for wear and tear...we will see. Cases are always less expensive to replace than phones.

Definitely not a dud. It happened with two. And there are countless other reports online. Glad you like yours. But the FW is a disappointment for me.

It’s hot and humid here half of the year probably why, even the FW has good grip now, 28c and over 85% humidity.
 
I was annoyed that the usb-c slot was too small. Went with the Clear case with an open bottom so I could leverage my bigger USB-C cables.
