Rustek cases now available!

[B. Diddy]

If you're still looking for a beautiful case for your 6a, Rustek's are now available. These cases have a real wood veneer, as well as an excellent grippy texture on the sides making it feel very secure to hold. They're a bit pricey, but to me, the appearance is worth it. In addition, I like the story of the company (basically a small indie company made up of a few skater dudes who personally bring the finished product via skateboard to the post office or UPS, and who also plant a couple trees with every order). They're also very responsive via email for any questions or issues.

I already have one for my 6 Pro (the Chet Malinow design), and just ordered one for my 6a (the Timber Line design).

Not my style but I'm sure these will appeal to the Bass Pro Shop crowd for sure.

Fifty dollars! That's more than my mom allows me to spend on phone cases!

Yeah, they're pricey, but in the same ballpark as Otterbox and similar brands.

Oh, I really like those designs. I'm thinking the Timber Line would look nice on my Samsung s22U. I may have to invest in one for when I'm not actually camping. When I'm camping, I have to put on the 'You know you're going to drop your phone on the rocks' case.


Thanks for posting!

Do they provide the same level of protection as Otterbox? If not, they're overpriced to me.

Same here. I'm not into outdoorsy looking things.

I'd think so, withh the possible exception of the Defender. Otterbox are some of the most overated cases on the market, again with the possible exception of the Defender (I've never used a defender, so I'm not going to judge it).

Nah, they're not intended to be rugged. The premium price is more for the unusual design and materials (as well as the fact they're a small business).
