Using the gray Apple leather case for iPhone 7. This is working out well. Originally tried getting the tech21 evo elite. Ordered but never received it from tech21.
Its not bad. Feels pretty good in the hand and the metal accents looks nice in my opinion. However, it makes the phone a bit too wide and I wish the rubber sides of the case was more grippier.
I am currently using a Cellularline Clear Duo

It is a pretty cheap (20$) case with superb quality of protection. I already had some situations, where my iP7 fell on the ground, but the case was there and my phone is still in perfect condition.

I'll reserve judgement until I hear back from Nomad customer service, but I'm pretty discouraged by what happened today. Just sitting in my pocket, no keys or drop or anything. No idea what happened but there's a nice, big hole where the leather ripped and it's only a few weeks old. I really loved this case up until today, and I know leather will wear but it should rip like this. I could understand if I had it in the bottom of a bag or in a pocket full of keys...but it wasn't anything like that so why did it rip? I emailed Nomad this morning so I'll let y'all know what their response is, I asked for a replacement or a full refund.
Found my pefect combo, and so far I have cases from Spigen, Obliq, UAG and Ringke.
It's a combo of a Jet Black frame from the Spigen Crystal Hybrid and the soft black interior of a Neo Hybrid. It's stupid, but you can't purchase a Neo Hybrid with black frame. So you have to purchase 2 cases in order to get this.
Everything on the outside is now all black. I love that the plastic frame prevents any flex at the bottom of the case when you pull the phone from your pocket, which many cases suffer from as there's less material there.

Nice, what screen protector are you using and is it any good?
It's an ESR. I'm happy with it, definitely the best one I've tried so far. All the others had enormous air gaps on the edges. This one has it as well, but very minimally. About less than half a millimeter left and right. As you can see on the pictures you can barely tell, and no dust is getting underneath it.
It's also reasonably priced and it comes with a tool to center it: https://www.amazon.com/Protector-ES...=1477938202&sr=8-5&keywords=esr+iphone+7+plus

Just found a nice well done no brand case. 
I found this value case did much better than my Spigen case. Sorry I can't give any link as I buy at my local store.

Since my 7 Plus is Jet Black, it'll most probably be the white silicone case.
Bought this case on a whim since it was only $3 and from a US seller. Arrived yesterday and it's a pretty nice minimalistic, hybrid bumper like case. Not sure how good it would look on matte/jet black, but I really like the contrast on my silver ip7+. Got the black but might pick up the navy one too. My only complaint is the buttons are a little softer compared to some of the more clickly cases I've had, but it's not that bad.

That's Hott ! I really like this.
Same here, I have the Speck Presidio Grip and I'm waiting for the Evutec AER too. It's what I ended up using on my 6+ and really liked it.

I saw that one!!! Do you like it? Is it bulky or slippery?

I had it on my 6s+ too and it was the only case I kept on it for a year. I hope the new version is as good as the last version.
