I’m almost ready

I have the Inky and I can hear all buttons click at arms length and nice and tactile.
Your Action button is on par with the other buttons? The A button on both of my replacement Sheaths is still muted compared to the other buttons.

Yeah I wouldn't say I can't hear them, they're just not as tactile as I'd expect/competitors are. I'm not comparing them to standalone buttons, I know that buttons that are part of the case like this will always be less tactile than standalone buttons, but this still isn't good enough in my opinion. I appreciate these things are subjective though.

I’d agree with this. I got a replacement sheath on warranty last week and the buttons are still meh, a bit better but not great. Maybe they sent me the old version by accident! I’m not a fan of the case so it’s just in the drawer not being used
You can tell if it's the new version, compare it to the buttons on the old one and the new one should have larger slits around the buttons.
I share the same sentiments.

I had a latest version sheath the other day - The fourth one - it was the latest version but as you have said, year they were improved but they definitely weren't tactile and 'clicky'.

I ref back to Caudabe and told them not to bother issuing anymore replacements as the issue isnt resolved.

Sold it on eBay.
Good to know it's not just me!

This is exactly how I feel, and it's muted enough that it annoys me.

I have two brand new Sheaths collecting dust in a drawer. I did the same, I let Caudabe CS know that they still haven’t fully resolved the buttons or the MagSafe indent but to not bother with any more replacements.

I can hear ALL buttons clicking at arms length, action button included and not muted at all.

I received Sheath in c blue for my 15 Pro late last week.

My buttons are clicky and tactile. But, I can barely hear a clicking sound when using the action action button. It could be better, but not a deal breaker.

Honestly, if I didn’t have a drawer full of better cases (IMO), I could easily live with the Sheath. It’s only when you start comparing it to the alternatives that these little issues take on more significance.
That’s why I don’t have a drawer full of cases anymore. I’m set on the Sheath as my daily gray and the inky.

I have been pondering a leather case and maybe the Nomad in English tan.

Just flagging again - I adore the Mujjo in blue for my blue 15 Pro. It's literally the perfect colour and feels great.

However. I have to return it because the camera bump is so fat that on the 15 Pro, you cant fit any magsafe accessories onto it without it overlapping on the camera bump. Mainly wallets. Just want to flag this for any 15 Pro users considering the Mujjo.

Such a shame because that case was the one for me

Best Buy has Nomad modern online for order. But if you can find a Nomad discount code maybe it’s cheaper to order direct

Navy. It's got a fraction more green in it than I like in my blues, but it's a nice colour anyway. The case is a banger all round, buttons/fit/feel etc. Not the grippiest if you look for that.
It should gain some grip after you use it a while. Or you could apply a bit of leather conditioner/cream

Imo their Horween leather doesn’t feel as good as Bullstrap or even Andar leather
Ok thanks! Because in Amazon UK Horween cost £70 against £50 for normal leather and I don’t know which one to buy… In UK no Andar,no Bullstrap…only Ryan London is available to buy (and Nomad obviously)
