Now that the patina is setting in, is the group getting any better?

yeah. The grip is less slippery but still slick

there’s nothing you can do. That’s how the colored leather cases are. Eventually the red will turn black at the edges

I use a leather cleaner on it and it comes off. I have yellow case and there’s color transfer from my jeans daily. I just wipe it off in the evening.

This is mine for about 10 months already sorry for the photo quality as i took it using only ipad camera

Took a random picture with my wife’s one plus 7 pro and this isn’t an edited photo. The case is a lot lighter than shown. I still think this picture looks cool.

How did you get that patina?!?

That’s not the actual patina. Some how that photo made the patina much more pronounced. Here’s what the case actually looks like.

Is it getting like that just using it? No other treatments? How long are you using the case?

I got mine two weeks ago but still pretty new, no patina

I’ve been using it since 10/10/19 daily and no other treatments used or applied. It’s darkening nicely just from normal use.

Decided to retire my forest green XS Max case after about 13 months of daily use. It got very dark, but evenly. Anyway, I think I’ll go naked for a while...

Here it is (and next to my old black 7+ case for color reference).

this basically how my forest green looks like now.

Just bought a saddle brown case and I love it! Just curious if there's a way to make it more grippy? It seems very slick, more slippery than my black leather case. I realize this question has probably been asked before I just didn't want to look through 75 forum pages to find it haha.

The easiest option is to use a magic eraser or a fine grit sandpaper. Or, you can just use it normally for about a week and the case will have more grip from normal use.

I've already tried the magic eraser and it didn't do anything, and I don't want to take sand paper to it

As it’s been discussed before; those are your only options for added grip.

Just use it the case and deal with the slipperiness for a few days.

it doesn’t last long.

don’t know why people are so obsessed with artificially wearing these cases in.

Just use it and let it do its thing

I'm actually against the artificial wearing. I just don't like the slipperiness, and didn't know if it was permanent

I had to stop using my Forest Green 11 Pro Max leather case. Just too damn slippery And this is after a month of use

My forest green leather case will arrive tomorrow. I returned my saddle brown and midnight blue. Wasn’t patient enough for the saddle brown and the midnight blue was darker than I expected it to be after a week. I enjoy not having a case on the 11 Pro Max but there are still moments when I wish I had a case. Plus, $20 on Amazon isn’t too bad for an Apple leather case ($10 amazon gift card from VerizonUp rewards).

Dropped my 11 pro this morning it say from about 2 feet and the bottom of the phone has a good sized gouge next to the charging port because the Apple leather case doesn’t cover the bottom. My own fault, I should have been more careful. For this reason, I stopped using my saddle brown case which I absolutely love. I ordered a nomad rugged case and am currently using a mous contour. It’s a sad day to retire my saddle brown case.

Here is my yellow after about a month of use. I wear dark jeans and you can see the color transfer around the edges. However, Cadillac leather cleaner and conditioner gets most of it right off. The cleaner also makes it more grippy too.

Okay, now I officially want a yellow case.

Meyer Lemon really looks like a nice cross between Spring Yellow and Sunflower - deffo my next choice in buying a new case. Just really wish it was also available as a Leather Folio too

Leather conditioner/cleaner will take care of that. It made mine grippy.

Leather cleaner and conditioner will work.
