Full-wrap Design
Traditional Case wraps your iPhone in a layer of full-grain Horween leather, giving it a sophisticated look and luxurious feel. Its slightly raised lip protects your screen from scratches.
Horween Leather
Horween leather is minimally treated, preserving many of the natural features of the hide; rather than correcting for blemishes or color variation, the Horween team embraces these imperfections as signs of authenticity and personality.
Camera Control
A glass Camera Control button lets you use your iPhone’s camera to its fullest. As responsive as the one built into your iPhone, it enhances the experience without getting in the way.
Ultimate Patina
With daily use, your leather will naturally buff out marks and scratches into a rich patina. From day one to day 100, your case will age beautifully, developing a finish that’s uniquely yours.
Quality. Character. Tradition.

How is Horween different from other leathers?Horween leather has been made the traditional way since 1905. Unlike most modern leathers that rely on synthetic chemicals, dyes, and sealants for a flawless surface, Horween preserves the leather’s natural character through time-honored tanning methods. The result is a handcrafted material that looks and feels authentic.
-
Will the leather change over time?Our premium leather is minimally and naturally treated and is prone to scuffing and marking in the first few months of use. With time, scuffs and marks will buff out into a rich patina. If you’re looking for a perfect finish, this is not the case for you. If you’re after an authentic leather patina, this is absolutely the case for you.

How do I attach a lanyard?Place the Wrist Strap’s anchor in the recessed area of the case, then push the D-ring through the USB-C port. Insert your iPhone into place, then loop the Wrist Strap through the D-ring to finish. Want to use a different lanyard? Simply thread it through the D-ring, but note that you’ll still need the anchor attachment.

Great Case Great Color
Love the saddle brown Horween case. It’s everything I’ve come to expect from a Nomad case and in a fantastic color. Nomad has long been my go to for leather cases cause they are the best on the market. This lighter brown color is amazing.

Bad camera control built
The camera control button on the saddle traditional leather was poorly made. The glass button was protruding out and whenever my finger goes against the side of my case my fingers will feel some sharp uneasiness which makes using the case unpleasant. I requested for a warranty replacement and to my surprise the replacement at the same exact issue. Worse the camera button glass came off on it own due to it protruding out and poorly glued. And I only used that replacement less than a week.
