Thanks. Looking for an all leather case. Got the Nomad leather yesterday and been running it. I’m not feeeling it. It feels like a case with a leather back.
Yes I know what you mean. The feel of full leather keeps these cases at the top for me. Nomad’s is nice for what it is imo, but nothing beats a fully wrapped leather case.

I want a black leather case. Do I buy an Andar or wait for bs to release their closed bottom? I’m not opposed to the open bottom but hate the camera cover on the open bottom one.
 
You spell it your way, I’ll spell it mine. I’m sure you can understand this more than anyone else.
Yea come to think of it the way you spell it is the way it sounds. Me and my man UNFILTERD say and spell it Schpeegen.

Yea I'd hold out for Amazon to re-stock them, I saw on the Mous subreddit before they were out of stock someone else also noted its way cheaper on Amazon vs the actual Mous website. I know you get discount codes from buying Mous products but being $99 + whatever the shipping potentially could be doesn't justify waiting for the website stock imo. They're roughly $69 on Amazon currently not including blue and green being gone, and I'm familiar with the brand so I'll probably just be patient. You're getting what you pay for with Mous imo, not to sound like one of their sales members but its great protection without being bulky lol.

I saw the Smartish Gripzilla but didn't like the large corner bumps, never saw Gripmunk until you mentioned it and I sorta like the blue but the material almost seems too loose from looking at videos on it, and according to an amazon reviewer apparently the micro fiber interior could make the phone hotter potentially as it warms up, that might just be paranoia but I wonder if thats true?

I even liked the aesthetic of that Spigen C1 case modeled after the old Macs, but at the same time it looks like cheap plastic on the outside to me and heard the action button is mush. Never used anything from Spigen before.

It also sucks how so many great looking cases all just default to boring black too. I found one brand called Clckr and one of their models called Force has this cool tire-looking aesthetic but its only black, and their regular self described premium model only has a green variant thats kinda plain. Also allegedly people have issues getting those cases off so maybe they're too much to deal with

I got the blue and love it!

Good grip, feel and fit.
 
Anyone running Bullstrap on a 15pro? I’ve read that it’s possible on a 15pro that the bottom could cause pinky pain because of the open bottom and where the case starts. On the Max different because of more real estate on the bottom.

Ran it for about a month and had no issues…really comfortable

For those of you who have both the Phone Rebel and the Sheath which one do you prefer? The Sheath has just been delivered to me but currently using the Rebel.

I find the Phone Rebel case very hard to take off...

Which rebel you do you have again? Was it the frosty or crystal? I found the crystal easier to take off than the frosty.

The frosted one is the hardest one to remove. Whatever rubber they use is stiffer than the other models, which also makes the side grips feel like hard plastic, thus making the frosted more slippery.

Comparing the Sheath to the PR Frosted is like two extremes. One is almost like a hard case and the other is basically a really really nice TPU case.

The Phone Rebel and Sheath are 2 extremes / different category.

If you want excellent protection then the Phone Rebel.

For me I don’t need the protection the Phone Rebel offers so the Sheath.
 
Any other nomad owners can comment on the case lip in the front?
With a Spigen glass screen protector my Rugged has a decent lip, though for a protective case I’d prefer to have slightly more. It seems your ESR screen protector must be thicker?
