Leather case means less micro plastics. Which really doesn't matter to the tech industry, unless it's straws at the office.
In my experience with cases, they don't last as long as the phone does. A leather case would out last the phone and not contribute to micro plastics.
It outlasts the phone but it's unusable with your next phone so in reality it doesn't
I suppose lab grown leather would be the bees knees
That would be interesting. Not sure using bees knees to manufacture it is the best option. We currently have nothing synthetic that has the same properties as leather. It would be good to have a natural non-synthetic alternative.
For example when vivobarefoot stopped using leather for the synthetic alternative. Thier shoes fall apart so fast now and don't provide the same leave of protection.
