About:
Becoming a great company takes lots of hard work and ingenuity, while maintaining that standing takes consistency and innovation. Waterfield has been known for consistently producing durable innovative products. The new iPhone 6 Spinn case is no exception. With phones getting bigger and bigger, it becomes a challenge of keeping them with you at all times. This all-leather holster case from Waterfield may help you respond to this challenge by giving you a protected area right on your belt with suede lining and belt snaps to wire management while still offering you choices in leather options.
First Thoughts:
The first thought that runs through your head after removing Waterfield's Spinn case from its bag is “Wow this is big”. However, it needs to be the iPhone6 Plus is a big phone.
You can also tell from your very first touch that they are using quality durable leather. Even the suede used for protecting the screen on the inside feels soft but durable.
With any leather product stitching becomes a key factor. The Spinn case does not fall short here with solid clean stitching all the way around, including double, triple and more where it is needed.
The belt clip at first glance seems like it doesn’t belong mainly because it’s made of a thicker leather, but this is where the case might see the most abuse from everyday use. The snap clip seems to work very well, not too hard to become frustrating not to lose to be constantly popping off.
The top flap falls down and locks to Waterfield’s patten pending “wheel” which plans to keep your ear buds from tangling up.
