Modern Leather Case: For the Leather Enthusiasts

Modern Leather Case strikes a balance between innovation and timeless sophistication. Crafted for our leather enthusiasts, this case develops a unique patina over time.

If you’re after an authentic leather patina that evolves with you, this is absolutely the case for you. If you’re exposing your case to tough everyday use, keep scrolling for Sport and Rugged Case.
