Modern Construction

Designed to tightly fit your AirPods 3rd Generation with our two-piece construction, Modern Leather Case provides additional drop and scratch protection. Built with genuine Horween leather and interior microfiber, this case retains the compact nature of your AirPods 3rd Generation in style.

Integrated Light Pipe

Horween Leather

We source this leather from the renowned Horween Leather Co. of Chicago, one of America’s oldest tanneries. Over time, the raw, vegetable tanned leather will patina, developing a look that is exclusively yours.

★★★★★ The Ultimate EDC Upgrade for Your AirPods

If you want to ditch the slippery, scratch-prone white plastic of the stock case, this is exactly what you need. The Black Horween leather on this Modern Leather Case is absolutely top-tier. Out of the box, it has a flawless, stealthy aesthetic and that rich, premium leather smell, but the best part is knowing it’s only going to develop an amazing patina the longer it stays in my pocket rotation. The fit and finish are incredibly precise—no loose edges, no sliding off. It adds the perfect amount of tactile grip and drop protection without adding unnecessary bulk to my daily loadout. The two-piece construction feels seamless once installed, and the LED indicator cutout is perfectly dialed in. It completely transforms a standard piece of tech into a premium piece of everyday carry gear. If you care about the details of your setup, this is a massive upgrade and a complete no-brainer. Highly recommended!
