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.

I want it so bad! But I promised my wife I wouldn’t get another case!!!

Just received Nomad Rugged. I think the sides could be firmer. It seems quite loose especially near the buttons area.

Checking with Nomad on this issue

I had one that was sloppy at the power button, the replacement was OK. None of their cases are going to fit as tight as a Phone Rebel , Mous, or Caudabe.

The Sheath is also relatively the same as the Silicone.
Yea but form factor has a lot to do with it too. The Apple silicone has more chamfered edges than the Sheath where the Sheath is slightly more boxy. I personally prefer the Apple silicone form factor.

New case just in, it's the YMW Italian Nappa leather case in grey (on my 15 Pro in blue).

Really really good case. Leather is super soft and nice feeling, buttons are excellent and nicely tactile, and no sharp bottom cutouts.

Definitely a keep and will be in the regular rotation.

I have them saved as a seller in Aliexpress. They seem to have good reviews. Some have suspected that they are manufacturers for the other brands like Andar etc.

How is the fit? I have one too which I ordered on october but the edged are popping out easily. I fixed it with tape but I don`t like it that way. I would love the texture and the feeling of the case and if they would have a good fit it would be perfect.

Whilst I'm not running one at the mo, I can vouch for YMW's Nappa cases.

Great cases, great fit, great buttons, great leather. Have my grey one in a drawer at home

I recently had the blue and green ones delivered and subsequently returned (As I like my Apsen too much) and they were great too

Fit on this one’s impressively good actually. Perhaps either they’ve modified since yours or you had an unlucky one.

The fit on my grey one as well as the blue and green ones is/was nice and tight

Returned my Nomad Rugged case instead of exchanging due to the hassle. Pity. Such a good case with nice feel and to me, it's not bully at all.

However, I will order again when there's a good promo

Did you see their limited edition design?

View attachment 2341059

They’re not making the decision easy for me 🤦🏻‍♀️ I was sold on the Sunset but this looks nice

Yea it's a sweet design for sure. I need Pitaka to make better styled Pro cases with 360 protection. These snap on style cases are great designs , but don't offer a lot for $70

Oh I agree 100% and prefer the feel the silicone over the sheath. The dimensions of the cases, however, are very close. The feel in the hand is much different. But since you were comparing size differences with the Nomad Leather I was specifically referring to that.
