Kind of glad that I went with a Spigen case, instead. I can’t justify $60 for a case that is so delicate.

The best thing we can do for the environment is use things for a long time.

The only Apple leather case I ever bought ended up in landfill three months later. They're nowhere near as durable as plastic cases, which I usually sell with my phone after using it for a few years.

I'm sure it lasts if you're gentle with it... but so will any other well made case. Apple says the leather case environmental impact was too high, and they would know since they make it.
