Tonight I was at best buy and I purchased a tech21 patriot case. Boy am I impressed with this case. It's a little bulky but it's so worth it.
I got this too for my 6 plus. Not as bulky as the otterbox defender. I love it.
Pics please of the patriot case.so this is thinner than defender ? How is the quality ? Does the back scratch easy ?

Man this case looks sick. I've got it for my 5c currently, and when I get a new iPhone, I'm definitely getting a tech21 case.

The back is frosted and it looks like it will not get scratched easily.
I mean it's shorter and somewhat thinner than the defender case. It feels better in the hand. I actually exchanged my defender for this case and no regrets.
I've been using my patriot case for over a week and I can say that there is not one scratch on the case any place. I really love this case.
I have a question for you guys that have the Patriot case.
I saw on the website that it comes with a holster.
Are you using the holster and if so, how do you like it?
Thanks

I'm using it. And it works just fine. And it fits belts that are pretty thick. And it is easily taken out and put in one handed.
I tried the holster but didn't like using it. I just put the case in my pocket. I'm so glad I found this case because I'm so sick of waiting for lifeproof. Even though it's not water proof it's still splash proof and it keeps out all the dust. I'm not even interested in the lifeproof anymore. With this case I also don't have to worry about oil slicks on the screen like lifeproof and also the sound is loud and clear.
Damn guys I don't know how can you stand this case. I bought one today and it's going back tomorrow makes the 6+ the size of a cement brick!!!! Not to mention it destroys the aesthetics of the phone. My phone is back into my incipio case, plus I have 
care so no need to be carrying this huge plastic box with me.

I have the Tech21 Evo Mesh in clear/white for my iP6 Plus. It doesn't add much bulk, has good grip, looks sharp with white border and clear back. All buttons work great and all cutouts are great as well. All around looks great and fits well in my hands.
I'm extremely pleased with this case.

Camera cut out appears to be smaller this time much better than the taticial one which is large.
Do u have the apple store link I can seem to find this ?

Looking for this case
Where did you buy this case? I have been waiting for it at the Apple store near me. They have the one for the 6 but not the 6 plus. I can't find it on the Tech21 web site either.

I picked it up on eBay a couple of weeks ago. Seller had 8 available, brand new in retail box and he sold out very quickly.
I have this exact case for my 6. Not sure what those cut outs are for, mine does not have those.
I saw your pics in another thread. It really helped my decision to go with this case for my 6 Plus. Thanks!
Ive been switching back and forth between the Smokey Classic check and my black leather apple case.
I find myself going to the tech 21 case more and more...I really like the feeling of the case, even compared to the leather.
It seems a tad loose on the sides, like you can slip it on and off fairly easily, but it stays put, no issues.

I need to look into these. I thought they might have sucked being featured at Apple stores and all.
Tech21 cases turn yellow with time.
I have had several Tech21 cases. I had one for my iPhone 5 and one for my iPad Air 1. My GF also has one on her iPhone 5S as I recommended it because it offers excellent impact protection without being too bulky and on top of that it looks really cool. But my biggest caveat (and what has kept me from getting one for my iPhone 6) is that the plastic that they use for these cases will turn yellow with time. When this happens it just looks ugly.

I haven't had any yellowing issues yet. I don't keep my phone in my jeans, so that won't be an issue.
You said previously you didn't get it for your iPhone 6, because of the yellowing of your iPhone 5, then you did? So the yellowing was on your iPhone 5 case, correct?
