Frequently Asked Questions
Nomad Leather vs Horween Leather — what's the difference?
Both are full-grain leather. Horween (used in the Pro Max variant) comes from the iconic Chicago tannery and tends to develop richer, more dramatic patina shifts over time. Nomad's proprietary leather is also sustainably sourced and ages well, but with a slightly more subtle character development. The Nomad version is also a touch more affordable.
How does Qi2 charging compare to MagSafe?
Qi2 uses the same magnet alignment as MagSafe but is the open standard now adopted across Android and accessory makers. The case supports both — you'll get up to 15W on Qi2 chargers and the full MagSafe experience on Apple chargers.
Will the leather scratch easily?
It's full-grain leather, so it will pick up surface marks — that's the point. Those marks buff into the patina over time and become part of the character of the case. If you want a no-marks finish, choose a synthetic case instead.
Does it cover the Camera Control button?
Yes — with a fully wrapped glass cover that preserves shutter feedback. You get protection from dust and damage plus the same press feel Apple designed for the bare phone.
How do I care for it?
Wipe with a dry microfiber for daily cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals and excessive moisture. Occasional conditioning with leather balm extends its lifespan and deepens the patina. Light water exposure is fine; full submersion is not.
