Leather Options
We work with two types of leather here at Nomad: our standard leather and Horween leather. Our standard leather was developed by Nomad in collaboration with Danish tannery Ecco, utilizing modern tanning techniques that are adaptable, efficient, and innovative. It will still develop a patina over time but is slightly less susceptible to scratches and marks than our Horween leather.
Horween leather is handcrafted entirely in the U.S.A. using old-fashioned techniques. It smells richly of leather and will absorb marks, scratches, and oils into a lustrous patina that is totally unique to you. If you're looking for authentic, American-made leather, we would point you to Horween. Learn more about the differences between the two leathers here.

More questions? Check out these FAQs.
- Will the leather scratch? Both of our leather options are naturally and minimally treated and will therefore easily scuff and mark within the first weeks of use. With time, scuffs and marks will buff out into a rich and lustrous patina. If you’re after an authentic leather patina that evolves with time, this is absolutely the case for you.
- How do I care for my case's leather? Watch our instructional video on caring for your leather here.
- Can I use this case with another series iPhone, or any other devices? Our cases aren't cross-compatible—Modern Leather Folio for iPhone 17 will only work with iPhone 17 devices, Modern Leather Folio for iPhone 16 will only work with iPhone 16 devices, and so on.
- Does it offer camera protection? While the case doesn’t cover the camera lens itself, it does feature a raised camera ring that keeps the lens elevated when your phone is lying flat. This helps prevent direct contact with surfaces and offers protection from everyday wear.
- How do I attach Modern Leather Folio's magnetic clasp? Watch our instructional video on attaching and removing your Folio's clasp here.
- How do I prevent my Folio's card slots from stretching out? We recommend consistently using the same number of cards per slot (2-3) to avoid stretching.
