Otterbox Cactus Leather Case for iPhone 15 Pro Max | Shop Now

Otterbox introduces a leather-alternative iPhone 15 Pro Max case that feels like leather but is made from nopal cactus. Get it now at Verizon.

OtterBox has released their leather case. Does not seem to be in stores yet, but I would be interested in the hand feel of cactus leather.

So, this is available from Verizon but not even showing on the Otterbox website?

For the last week I’ve been using the rumwot from Amazon and I love this case. It fits the phone great, doesn’t have the gap at the bottom by the usbc cutout. The lip is low so you don’t feel it every time you swipe from the bottom. I got the off white and the buttons/camera ring match the natural titanium perfectly. My favorite thing about this case is the leather feel. It’s very supple and not slippery at all. I dont know how or if it will patina but this will be my new daily driver for a while. My only complaint is despite having strong magnets it doesn’t seem to have the alignment magnet because my wallet slides around more than on other cases. I haven’t had any problems with it falling off but it’s often crooked.

Edit: forgot to add the weight. It’s 32.5 grams for the 15pro.

Well my second closed bottom bullstrap case is also suffering from the same issue my first did… the section above the port at the bottom is too weak and after a few removals, it snaps inside the leather.

They’re now sending me a regular open bottom as a replacement instead as I’m not going to even try a third.

Something about this? Amazon dropped the price for this color from 51 to £19 but only open action button

That's a bummer. I haven't really taken my case off since I got it.

If or when you do, just push from the camera cut-out area and ease it out keeping the bottom as straight as possible because it's a major design flaw it seems, which probably also means they won't be releasing more colours anytime soon with the volume of issues they've had regarding the closed bottom case.

My LC case also had a tiny crack on the rubber sealing in the port area. Luckily no crack on the leather though.

same here on my first LC Tan, port sealing paint slightly damaged by a “fat” USB C connector. nothing to worry about, maybe I'll take it to a shoemaker for a touch-up.
