I've posted this in other threads, but here's my Dark Cherry setup for my 13 Pro with the leather case/leather wallet combo.

quick question, how’s strong is the mag wallet? considering purchasing for the 13PM. last years series didn’t receive good reviews. love your set up.

Reviews out there are saying it hasn’t changed from last year. 🤦‍♂️😞 Still not strong enough.

that’s unfortunate. was really looking forward to ordering the matching wallets for my cases 😞.
I’m still trying to catch up to your flex levels of buying. 🤦‍♂️😂

Putting me to shame woman. 😂

case is looking more mustard than brown … i’ll have to see it in person to make a final decision. also intrigued by the clover case and bands. no idea why i’m suddenly into green 🧐.
Depends on the lighting, looks more brown in this pic 😁

I would definitley recommend going to an Apple Store or somewhere else to try it in person — I think it’s plenty strong, but I understand that’s going to be different from person to person and their use case.

def will check it out. my phone is always in and out of my scrub pockets and i don’t want to deal with the wallet detaching and risk losing it. that’s my only concern with it. heard it isn’t that resilient in that way.

My UAG Monarch Carbon Fibre for 13 PM came yesterday. Like the look and feel of the case. Always get these cases for my phones. Wanted to get the Kevlar one as well but they aren't ready to be shipped yet. Perhaps at a later date.

Does anyone know how the Nomad leather case compares to a Caudabe sheath or Decoded leather case when it comes to bulk and protection? I have always used Caudabe sheath but am leaning towards leather, with Decoded and Nomad being preferable due to availability over here in Europe. Using a Spigen clear case for now but clear cases me no likey.. I think a brown leather case or black Caudabe will go well with my Sierra Blue 13 Pro.

Ditching the Blue Jay Silicone already!! Just kidding…between the two, what do you prefer the silicone or leather?
Like both, if I had to choose one, it would be the leather, since you don’t feel any dust and lint on the back of the case, also don’t have to clean it constantly like the silicone cases.

Got a green and brown leather case arriving soon, then I’m done, no more cases for me lol.

I just received from Taiwan the Rhinoshield impact MX bumper Black and the build quality is excellent. The Bumper is excellent protection and allows for the beauty of the device to shine through! I have a Red and Yellow coming later with a button pack as well! :)

Is there microfibre on the inside of the case? I remember the apple iPhone 4 bumpers use to scratch the frame like no tomorrow.

Awesome. Big fan of the green myself however I worry how it will age overtime. You never know anymore how these apple cases will wear.

I picked up the dark blue silicon case this morning - I think its a really nice shade of blue and would have looked great as a leather wallet. I generally only use a case if I'm out biking/running/working in the garden etc so I'm sure I'll get used to silicon.
