THE REAL STUFF.

100% full-grain leather. No fake "pleather", no BS!

Bullstrap's Founder talking about the "closed design" Contemporary MagSafe cases.

PATINA PROUD

100% FULL-GRAIN LEATHER

pa·ti·na - the natural aging process that occurs on the surface of leather products over time. As leather is exposed to elements such as light, air, and handling, it develops a unique, rich sheen and darkens in color. This change is often considered desirable because it enhances the leather's character and beauty, giving it a distinctive, lived-in appearance.

MAGSAFE COMPATIBLE.

Designed to work with all MagSafe accessories, but, it works especially well with the Bullstrap MagSafe Wallet (sold separately).

Not many people realize that our Contemporary iPhone Cases are made by hand! Given this, every case is slightly different and uniquely yours. So when you receive your case and the bottom cutouts are slightly off center, do not fret! They still will work, this is just due to the natural variation that comes along with a person making the case!

Reviews

Wrong item sent. I just wanted to the case that I ordered.

"I ordered the contemporary in terra but was sent the minimalist. After 3 weeks and several emails back and forth I was told that they would do a one time swap to the contemporary but I would have to pay shipping. I don’t feel I should have to pay shipping twice for their mistake so I asked if they would be able to make an exception and cover the shipping. No I haven’t heard a reply for 5 days so I’m starting to assume they are not willing to cover the swap."

Cody C. (1/5)

Love the leather case

"Really love the color and overall quality of the leather. Build quality is really high and the overall feel is perfect. Smooth and soft but also sticky enough to stay in your hand. Ordering was easy, fast shipping. Will definitely buy from Bullstrap again for future devices. Looks very nice with my blue 17 pro."

Andrew G. (5/5)

Good cases, although pricey

"This is my third bullstrap case, and I don't have any complaints on the build quality - I obviously like them and will buy again. I would however like to see you guys' trim out some of the fluff(like who cares about high-end packaging for something that goes into the trash?), which might allow you guys to bring these at a more reasonable price point."

Jarrett (5/5)

Great Case

"Great case that fits perfectly. Had that new leather smell and feels relatively durable. It scratches easily, but that is expected since it is leather. My phone no longer gets super hot like it did when I used silicon cases. The unboxing experience was unique, and this case has added a great touch of elegance to my phone."

Jason T. (5/5)

5 cases bought, love them all - iPhone 17 Pro Max

"I have two Contemporary (Black and Terra), two Contemporary Plateau (Black and Terra), and one Minimalist (Bourbon). I bought them all within about 4 months. I like to switch them out from time to time. Quality is top-notch, and customer service is second to none. Don't hesitate to buy; these are the best leather cases out there!"

Phillip B. (5/5)

The color of the case

"The color of the case undergoes a remarkable transformation within weeks, transforming into a captivating shade. The enticing aroma of genuine, fresh leather fills the air, creating an ambiance of luxury and sophistication. My wife is particularly fond of the color’s harmonious match with her phone, while its lightweight design ensures minimal noticeable weight. This protective case safeguards her phone from numerous accidental drops, preventing backscreen cracks, camera lens damage, or any other potential mishaps."

Cristhian N. (5/5)

"Nicest leather case out there and its no contest. Ive tried others and left disappointed but these cases always deliver. Will continue with these and wont ve looking elsewhere anymore."

Josh (5/5)

The best looking leather case in the market

"The Sienna is just awesome. The way it has developed a sheen with such a beautiful patina is mind blowing. Simply don't want to put my phone aside. The best accessory purchase ever I have made."

Abhinav K. (5/5)

"I’ve tried many different brands of leather cases and always found myself buying a bullstrap case. Once the Contemporary Plateau released, I knew it was the one i needed to get for my phone. Being from Canada, the shipping time was horrendous via USPS and the tariffs were steep, but logistics aside, the case is of great quality and would buy it for my next phone in the future as well. Assuming the contemporary plateau style carries on as well. Recommended if you’re debating a leather case."

Joseph (5/5)

A good purchase!

"The Dune color is really pretty. The case fits perfectly and protects all the edges of my phone. I love the buttons and how they’re compatible with the action buttons on my phone. Good design and great quality."

Q&A

Why is there no contemporary version of the 14 pro version. Flex bumper looks ugly to me. Minimal looks fantastic but id rather get a closed bottom. If you dont have one ill just get the minimalist one. Please let me know.
We currently do not have plans on releasing the Contemporary Phone Case in other models however we are always open to new ideas. Maybe, sometime in the future, we can look into expanding the model line for the closed-bottom iPhone cases. We recommend signing up for our newsletter to receive updates regarding this :)
