Leather Options

Modern Leather Case is available in two leathers. Both develop a unique patina over time, but each has its own character and finish.

Camino Leather

Our Camino leather was developed by Nomad in collaboration with Danish tannery ECCO. It uses modern tanning techniques designed to be adaptable, efficient, and innovative. Camino leather develops a patina over time while being slightly less susceptible to scratches and marks than Horween leather.

Horween Leather

Horween leather is handcrafted entirely in the USA using traditional techniques. It is minimally treated to preserve the natural character of the leather, so it will readily absorb marks, scratches, and oils. Over time, these marks buff into a rich, lustrous patina that is completely unique to you. If you're looking for authentic, American-made leather, Horween is the choice for you.

More questions? Check out these FAQs.

  • Will the leather scratch? Both of our leather options are naturally and minimally treated, so they will readily pick up scuffs and marks, especially during the first few weeks of use. Over time, these marks will buff into a rich, lustrous patina that evolves with use.
  • 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 iPhone series or device? Modern Leather Folio for iPhone 17 and iPhone 18 are cross-compatible. Cases for all other iPhone series are only compatible with the series they were designed for. For example, Modern Leather Folio for iPhone 16 works only with iPhone 16, while Modern Leather Folio for iPhone 15 works only with iPhone 15, and so on. Our iPhone cases are not compatible with any other devices.
  • Does it offer camera protection? While the case doesn't cover the camera lens itself, it features a raised camera ring that keeps the lens elevated when your iPhone 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? We recommend consistently using the same number of cards in each slot, ideally 2–3, to help prevent stretching.
  • Where can I find information for iPhone 14 and older? Email [email protected], and someone from our team will be happy to answer all your questions!
