I bought Apple's clear mag case on release day. Actually adds quite a bit of bulk and weight to the phone. I'd rather have it protected though plus I can see the color on the back.

Bummer. I always loved the Sheath as well. Is it super wobbly? I mean can you deal with it?
Not super wobbly at all. I have it on a table right now in front of me. It's fairly stable when tapping the screen. For me, that's not a deal breaker, as I don't use the phone in this position. The Sheath's form, feel and minimalist style outweighs a raised camera rim. But that's just me. Cases are very personal items and everyone values their attributes differently.

Thanks man. Now I just need a sale.

...will a glass screen protector touch the surface if laid face down? (I have a blue one on the way)
No, but it's mighty close.

Thanks. Do you think the Wallet would hold tight?
I have a 12 Mini and a Caudabe Sheath. Today I picked up a MagSafe charger and a Silicone MagSafe case. The charger holds way tighter on the naked iPhone or the iPhone with the MagSafe case. It does stick on the iPhone with the Sheath but not very strong.

With the naked iPhone or with the MagSafe case, I can pick up the iPhone by lifting the wire on the MagSafe charger and the iPhone will stay stuck to the charger. With the Sheath, there's not enough magnetic strength and the iPhone falls off. I wouldn't expect the wallet to work very well with the Sheath.

I really like the Sheath but I gotta say the buttons work way better on the Silicone MagSafe case.

My buttons are great on the Navy blue Sheath.

My samples came in of the blue and red aramid fiber cases for the 12 Pro Max....

omg— my days of searching for the perfect case are over! Gorgeous, grippy, razor thin... I’m in love.

here are a couple pics, very subtle weave but the texture feels amazing, the color is fantastic. Fit and finish is literally flawless.

pics are next to my navy blue apple silicone case.

Finally received the Peel case along the line of several other cases.

Out of all ordered, clear case only returned as not usable with oil and smudges.

Saddle brown is my Mrs’.
