Our " iPhone" cases, made from vegetable-tanned Vachetta leather, have been among our absolute bestsellers for years—prized for their natural feel, durable quality, and distinctive, characterful leather.

We added the iPhone 16 Pro & Pro Max versions to our lineup early on—initially with a classic cutout for the camera shutter button, since the technology for the side-mounted button was still in development. Now it’s here: the new generation of our leather case—with a fully integrated camera button, handcrafted, a perfect fit, and still made from the same high-quality Vachetta leather that our customers love so much.

"Try it once - and you'll never want to use a case without a camera button again. A real highlight that changes everyday life and photography."

"Only with the right desk pad
the desk becomes your personal feel-good workplace"

Why Our Vachetta Leather iPhone , 16 Pro, and 16 Pro Max Cases Are So Special

Our iPhone 16 Pro leather cases are carefully handcrafted—each piece is truly one-of-a-kind. This is primarily due to the natural Vachetta leather, which is tanned using traditional methods—completely free of toxic chemicals. The result is a leather that tells the story of its origins through its grain, small scars, and depth of color. No two cases are alike—and that’s exactly what gives each leather case for the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max its unique character. With our case, you’ll consciously stand out from the crowd.

Available colors - naturally beautiful

You can choose between three tried-and-tested shades that our regular customers are already very familiar with:

Cognac brown - warm, lively and particularly elegant for everyday use. Typical leather!
Chocolate brown - deep dark, strong character and striking
Black - minimalist, clear and timelessly modern

New: Our popular Cognac is now slightly lighter - for an even clearer distinction from Chocolate Brown and a finer gradation within our natural color palette.

Each color develops its very own patina over time - an individual surface that develops through use and touch and makes your case a distinctive companion.

Haptics & protection - this is what premium feels like

The vachetta leather has a good grip, is easy to clean and sits securely in the hand. Inside, a soft, high-quality microfiber fabric ensures the best device protection and protects the glass back of your iPhone. A highlight: the reinforced camera cut-out with aluminum frame reliably protects your lenses - elegantly embedded in the overall design.

The highlight: integrated camera button for that real photographer feeling

We’re particularly proud of a new feature: Our iPhone 16 Pro leather case features a camera button integrated into the side that activates and controls the original Apple shutter button on the side of the iPhone. This tactile sensor isn’t an afterthought—it ’s seamlessly integrated into the leather case —a true masterpiece of our craftsmanship. This not only improves handling but also ensures a consistently seamless and cohesive design without unnecessary cutouts.

Open underside - well thought out instead of incomplete

The underside of the case is deliberately left open to keep the USB-C port easily accessible. This ensures compatibility with all common USB-C cables - whether original or third-party. We know from experience: With fully closed cases, frequent plugging and unplugging can lead to breakages in the lower bar. Our open solution is therefore not only more practical, but also more durable.

Recommendation: The perfect combination— iPhone case + screen protector

Along with a high-quality screen protector for the iPhone 16 Pro or Pro Max , our leather case is the perfect combination for anyone looking for protection, style, and craftsmanship all in one.
