CataPurus Top Grain Leather 8.3" Slim Tablet Protective Case, Solid Minimalist Vintage Design, Fully Handmade, Compatible with 8.3" iPad mini 6 iPad mini 7.9" & Other Tablets, Coffee 8.3 Inch

I recently purchased an iPad pro, and tricked it out with a keyboard case. I am picky and want to protect my investment, but I am also frugal. I was able to snag a used version of this case, in a size large enough to fit with my keyboard case. This is the 14 inch, which fits width well, though slightly long. I thought I ordered the side open version, but it was the end open. Still works well, though my Apple pencil sometimes comes off when I extract the iPad. My case arrived in new condition. Not a scratch. Real, thick cowhide leather. Stitched well, though the ends of the seams near the opening will likely need reinforcing later. Flawless, smooth, butter soft, but think amd sturdy enough to protect the stuff inside. I rubbed it down with mink oil to protect the leather. This is a minimalist case, so no handles, lining, pockets. Simple. Just what I wanted. The sleeve is formed, not flat, so there is no break-in needed. I highly recommend picking up a used one if available. Scuffs, scratches, light stains are expected and only add to the patina, though mine arrived in perfect condition. Most likely sent back due to improper size order. Doesn’t affect the protection at all. This isn’t the cheap-o pleather garbage. Order one. You deserve real quality at a good price.

First I wanted to buy a leather skin for my laptop but it was $150.- so I decided against it. That’s how I ended up with this leather case. This is a very nice case for my MacBook Pro 14 -inch 2025. It is simple but efficient. I of course like it that it is genuine leather as the faux leather cracks with time. It came with a protective pouch which is nice because who wouldn’t want to protect the protection for their beloved laptop. I’m not a big fan of the engraving “CONTACT’S FAMILY”. A symbol of some sort would have been more acceptable for me. This case is very delicate. As you can see it on the photo the leather even though nice and pleasant to touch scratches easily. I smoothed it away gently with the back of my fingernail. It is acceptable now. I guess this is how you develop patina for the leather.

A top quality leather sleeve for your laptop. Formed and well stitched for perfect fit. No interior lining, which I don’t mind.

The font is gorgeous. Quality is stunning. This particular sleeve has no zipper but can be very convenient for quick access. Very pleased. Shipped a week early.

The sleeve has an almost perfect fit to my iPad, except for the fact that the pencil sticks out and might be prone to accidental removal. There's also generic text "CONTACT'S FAMILY" that I supposed is meant to be customized. The leather looks and feels great, it'll have scratches and marks for sure, but leather is like that.

This an awesome laptop sleeve. Soft and supple. The internal grain really holds on to the laptop (ie it takes effort to get the laptop out of the sleeve). That fit my needs, but might not be for everyone.

Fits the new Surface Laptop like a glove, snug even though some might prefer it that way. I wanted it a bit less snug, so crammed a few magazines in it overnight and it's perfect. Has the finish of Birkenstock oiled leather, so shows mojo easily (scratches etc.), but it's better for it. Bit pricey compared to other synthetic options, but very nice!

This is a leather carrying case for the iPad mini, which is what I was looking for. However, I didn’t ask for personalized labels and if I had, it wouldn’t have been this random phrase that was stamped on it. “Contact’s family” what even is that? And the back also has like oils on it shown on the second picture. Or it maybe had a sticker on it. I suspect this item was ordered and returned and maybe that’s why it is what it is.
