The Modern Leather is great. Buttons are incredible.

It also makes the phone feel much wider than it should be. Should have had slimmer lines like the Sport Case. Huge miss by Nomad.

However,what do you mean "the earpiece lip"? ThXs for your reply. I will buy one of them after careful comparison.
It’s has a weird part at the top that sticks up and slightly covers the earpiece. Look at some of the photos in the thread. It definitely didn’t work with the Sheath but hasn’t affected the sound on any other cases for me.

Completely agree. I have no idea why Nomad went with the thicker bottom and sides on the leather case and didn’t make it the same as the Sport case.
Never had the Sport case so it’s irrelevant. I’ll be comparing the dimensions to the Sheath and Apple Silicone.

I’m not really sure why it’s irrelevant. It was relevant to the conversation being had (a conversation you weren’t involved in).

But since you’ve jumped in and you’ve got a Nomad leather case coming, I’ll tell you the Nomad will feel much wider than the Sheath and way wider than the Apple Silicone. That doesn’t mean it’s a bad case (I love mine), but it’s going to feel “bigger” than those two.

Ok thanks.

I plan on taking a pic of all the current cases I own (read: ended up not sending back LOL) and try to place them in order from "best" to "least used"; I dont feel that any of the cases I have are the "worst", that is why I ended up keeping them and not returning them.

Anyone got the blue nomad sport? Do they scratch up and Greasy on the back? Magsafe ring?

One of my favorite cases. Haven't seen any scratches, however I rotate cases so don't see any of my cases getting damage. It shows fingerprints but wipe away quite easily. I don't have mag ring issues as I always remove whichever case before slapping it on the charger.
