I think it’s pretty similar level of protection in my humble opinion. Seems very very similar except the Aspens build quality seems better, higher quality leather. Only exterior branding can be seen in my pictures below the power button on the side. If I had to choose between this or apples leather, I would choose this.
On the PM it weighs 45 grams compared to the Apple Silicone which weighs 33 grams. I assume there’s a similar difference on the Pro, perhaps a little less. I agree that it’s not particularly heavy compared to some of the competition.
I haven’t tried putting a lanyard on yet. I’ll have to get one and post my results.
Mous Black Leather or Bamboo ??

It's a shame cause I really like the Synthesis, but the action button being mushy just doesn't sit well with me. The volume buttons are passable but they're no where near good. I like the grip on the Sheath, but the bulk it adds I can't do
I was watching a review on YouTube this morning for the 15 even though I already have the phone (I'm weird, I know) but the reviewer said that even though the 15 pro/pro max got reduced in weight, you won't notice it.. I was like "yeah right! That's the first thing you notice." So the added weight from the Sheath or Synthesis, I just can't do, which sucks cause I really liked the Sheath on my 14 PM.
I prefer dark cases, so my vote is for black leather.Mous Black Leather or Bamboo ??

My vote is for the black leather too! It would compliment your black iPhone better than the Bamboo would.
Same. The Sheath is the best case I’ve used so far, but the texture is a bit too much on a day to day basis.
Here is the Bamboo on my 14PM from last year. Loved the look but the clear finish on the back went to hell pretty quick. Haven't had a Mous black leather in ages so maybe I'll just go for it.
I’m curious what happened with the finish? Did it just wear through or did it break down in some other way?
It was like the clear coating was coming off. Kind of like worn out floor polish. I'll dig in my old pics and see If I have anything that shows it.
Which silicone color did you end up with for the white titanium?It's a shame cause I really like the Synthesis, but the action button being mushy just doesn't sit well with me.

The Apple silicone is now what my phone lives in, for me it's the perfect case outside of the lint/dust it attracts. I don't see myself buying another Sheath/Synthesis this year unless they put out an awesome color that is to die for, but knowing Caudabe and how stubborn they are with colors, I won't get my hopes up.
I have the Clay and Cypress. Mostly use the Cypress.
Yep that's the one. The sides are gray.
