    That’s literally what patina means though.

    I tried to search the internet to determine whether a leather phone case is unhygienic. There seems to be nothing on this topic. I’m sure it is, but I’d love to see an actual article or study on it.

        I agree with you. I bought another brand’s leather case and I’m pretty happy with it.

        Now that you mention it, I have an apple leather case from the 12 era on right now and the patina pattern is absolutely horrendous. I might need to put some oil over it or something.

        It is rather poor quality, yeah. But I’ve come across some companies that use a way better grade of leather. I had one for an old Android a while back made from brown Horween leather, and it actually did develop a really nice patina over time.
