I know that many people go bareback when getting leather, but for me that isn't an option as I need good drop protection. Probably not as good as an otterbox defender, but still rated for 6' which is good enough for me. I got the ballistic jewel case because I wanted to show off the leather back. It also fits the leather back well,and has good grip. This is the Verizon G4.

Anybody else use a case that shows off the leather back? If so please share and post pictures.

This is along the lines of what I will do. I can't cover the leather....even if I can see the leather.
Anyone have this bumper,?

I think just like you but I'm worried that the bumper when installed can damage the leather, I mean you know that leather gets marks very easy, and this bumper seems to be covering a little more than just the frame, from the pictures it seems that it will be pressing some leather all around.

Someone had purchased and posted that on XDA already. Wont let me post the link but just check the xda lg g4 accessories forum and should be the first post there. Looks like you can force it to fit but may cause long term damage to the leather. Another poster reported the bumper fits the black leather better but I'm not sure. I ordered one a while back for the hell of it and havent received it yet but will report back when i do.

I think the point of having a leather back is to feel it. I don't really care to show it off. It's nothing spectacular. All I Need is a silicone bumper case.

For me, a bumper case doesn't do it. It doesn't give enough protection. But it is a good option for light protection.

Yeah....if I was going to keep it covered all the time I would have saved some money and gone with the plastic back that has more case options. Leather must breathe.

No money savings on Verizon. I am happy with my case now. I have both the plastic and leather back and much prefer the leather

Got this a couple a few days ago and so far, so good. Adds some weight, but have to say, I kinda like the silver "wrap" when looking at it heads on and even from the back. Sorry, was replying to earlier post.
