If you like the idea of a leather case but don't want to pay Apple's premium, Jisoncase is another great option. They're not quite as polished as Apple's offerings — the power and volume buttons are leather, not aluminum, and there are only a handful of color options (black, brown, red, and blue). But they're made of real leather and offer the same slim fit. And at about twenty bucks each, the price is hard to beat.
