In this video I show you how to get amazing looking patina on your Apple Leather Case in the color Saddle Brown. This is applying to all the Saddle Brown cases but primarily the iPhone 12 cases as they dont age like the old models did. That is why we are helping the patina a bit :). Using fine sandpapaer and leather nurishment/balm.

Can we get an update video on how the patina evolved after usage?
Could we maybe get an update on the patina of the case :)?
Helllo from Estonia
Does it change the texture of the case?
WOw😃
For the magic eraser method we talking the pencil eraser or the Mr.Clean product?
How did you make sure any sand was cleaned off? I would hate for some sand to scratch the phone.
Just curious to know which type of animal this leather case is made up with?
I’m just gonna wait for it for to happen naturally overtime
Hey man how it aged now? Does it still looking good? Maybe better!
You can just wear the phone in that case long enough and it will start look like that on its own
I don't have an iphone or a leather case. but I'm gonna watch it anyway.. lol..
What does the texture of the case feel like after some time using it?
I was kind of hoping he was going to rub some of the coffee into the 12 cases, this will give me a nice dark stain. 😆 (Actually, I kind of wonder if I lightly sandpaper that…then add a little Dark roast into my phone I'd get a darker color. (Seems too simple….so I won't try it.) But, yeah my 12 PM Saddle Brown case is STILL pretty much it's original color – except in some spots along edges since early Nov.
Can I just use alcohol 70% only to get patina?
“we have coffee as well but that’s not for the case, that’s for me” 😂😂😂love it!
Damn you really did a good job mate
Man, that was amazing. Looks beautiful!
Hi, can you please reply to my comment please. I’m looking to buy the leather case from Apple. It’s the only one that covers the bottom out of all others (nomad has TPU frame which I din’t like and all others the bottom are exposed). This will be my first leather case because now the bottom is cover, I really love the patina. If I’m using alcohol to rub away the coating, will this case age the same way of normal use like after the coating is remove like all previous model? The texture and color look the same as the old cases so if I’m rubbing away the coating, and using it normally, will it be the same or they use completely different leather? Thank you if you are replying. Really need to know. Really like your contents. Really appreciate if you spend time replying me.
Honestly the best patina is the one that happens naturally.
This case is a fake
I could’ve just gave you my old case I’ve had since they released. Looks pretty dirty.
How to give an iPhone leather case an authentic run over by a car look.
Did it on mine too! 5 mins after shipping! HAHA
Thank you for this video!! Awesome DIY
So I’ve just spent 14minutes watching a man patina a iPhone case…. and I loved every second of it 👀
Thank you! After watching this I used sand paper on the black case and it looks amazing! I didn’t use any oil, and it looks and feels like suede with blue undertones. Black was not my first choice but I found one on Amazon on sale for less than $25 so I grabbed it. My first choice would’ve been the saddle brown but I couldn’t see paying $60. Now I’m so glad I did get the black one!
How much these cases cost for 12 pro in Saddle Brown?
Any link to buy it online?
Do you think the blue leather case could custom patina as well ?
Thank you for the video. Do you think the case will naturally also patina this way? I mean over a year’s time without any artificial conditioning?
it will be good if the case leather is baltic blue?
Just sanded my new case .. tack 🙏
Wow amazing video, I have this case for my 12 Pro Max and in def doing this. Here, take this like and sub.
Thanks for sharing this. It looks beautiful!
It looks so much better than the Original – really awesome! Nice job!!
Mycket väl förklarad. Exakt vad jag letade efter. Tack så mycket !
Very nice result! Thanks for sharing! Var ska man köpa Sandpaper i Sverige?
I did this to my saddle brown case as well but now the phone case is too smooth (because of the sandpaper) any idea what to do??
Can't wait to see the Apple Wallet treatment. thanks for the DIY 🙏.
Can you sand it and just use coconut oil?
Could you try doing the same on the Baltic blue case? Thanks
Thanks for the video that was awesome and supper helpful 👌
Kindly make a video on california poppy
How is the change in texture of the case after removing the coating?
