Alcantara? Is there a brand that makes these? I’m intrigued!!
A few options:

EDIT: Probably won't hold up the best though unless you commit to really taking care of it.
Mine has the same issue. I emailed them about the button issue on the revised synthesis. The first one with the cut out didn’t have any problems with the buttons. I’m positive this is a defect.
The pink just looks damn cute. I miss the rose gold iphone if you couldn't tell. Plus pulling up in a black beam with a pink little phone and a mustache honestly just sounds bad ass. 💀A few options:

They came out of the Aneu case from last year for the 14 Pro Max.
My gray sheath with button cover finally arrived today. Ordered on October 1st when they first became available, but was worth the wait. Getting the case made me remember why I've solely used Caudabe the past 4 years. Some notes:
- Texture is unique and grippy as usual.
- Magnet is not as strong as the Spigen Ultra Hybrid I was using previously. To be fair, I thought that magnet was almost too strong on that case. However, I think the magnet is a bit less powerful than last years sheath due to the microfiber lining like others have said. Personally I think the tradeoff is worth it.
- Buttons are great on my case. Power button has audible click and pleasant tactile feel. While the volume buttons and action button aren't really audible but they all provide the same amount of tactile feedback.
- I really can't notice any sort of magsafe ring others mentioned.
- Looks great with natural titanium.
Buttons absolutely break in over time - not as great as what you get on let’s say the fine woven case but it’s better than when it’s first out of the box. Took about a week for mine to loosen up.
One weird thing I need to test is temperature - to the touch after a while of use the sheath feels warmer than some of the other cases I have tested. Not a scientific experiment just everyday use and a general feel. I’d be interested to hear if anyone else has noticed this?
Yeah same - power button’s fine, volume buttons aren’t great, but that action button is shocking!
sorry for the late reply, this actually looks great! what is the link for this, I'm unable to find a blue carbon fiber case that looks so close to pitaka as yours. Thanks!
No no, I should have been more clear. They sent me a picture of them.. lol they wouldn’t spare a set to keep a customer from returning tho. I don’t even want to use the case with that color metal so I told them if they can’t help me out with at least a black camera ring then I’m going to have to return it and maybe buy again later.
Also, Casetify is a nightmare to do returns with. They message me on IG then I respond right away and they take 24 hours to respond. I told them I’d prefer email so we can communicate in more than just a sentence at a time but they insist on IG messages. I paid to ship the ultra bounce back, and it landed at their headquarters on Monday and they still haven’t issued a refund.
Here is my Black Titanium 15 Pro with the Clay silicone case. I will say it looks darker in person. I love the color of it.

I won’t be buying from them again. If they find a way to resolve the removed case then I might give them a shout in the future, but this has put me right off.
Interestingly, I went back in the site to see if I could still order my refunded case, and you can. About an hour later, I got an email from them ‘We’ve saved your cart so click this link to checkout’. So that’s what I did, and I can still order the case. Don’t get it. Really annoying.
That’s nice. I did the same with my 12 Pro, got a nice yellow wrap. Looked good for a while, but my denim left it with blue marks along the edges. I’d consider it again, but I’d go the same colour as the phone this time.
I have the clay silicone case and not having any issues at all with fingerprints so far, which surprised me. It picks up a bit of dust / lint when in pocket but very easy to brush off, and supposedly gets better with time. Loving this case so far and hoping it holds up.
It does show fingerprints but it is nothing like the Benks ArmorPro that I was using before. This one just gathers smudges over time but wipes off easily.
As poor as my most recent experience with their customer service has been my Dad had a better one. He ordered a case for this 12 Pro and the sent him a 12 Mini case. They told him to just keep the case and they'd either send him the right one or refund him. He chose the refund and bought something else.
I'd hope that we're just the outliers and the majority of people have a better experience. They may be very busy right now and possibly short staffed. I've spent my time in customer service to know that sometimes orders or tickets just get missed. **** happens but it also sucks to be on the receiving end of those situations.
