Materials

Four materials, four uses

A case is, first and foremost, a material: it determines the feel, the thickness, and how the piece ages over time. Here’s what we use, and what each one does better than the others.

Liquid silicone
01

Liquid silicone

Molded silicone elastomer, full microfiber lining

The material doesn't slip in your pocket or absorb grease from your fingers. It has a matte finish that feels dry to the touch, and a microfiber lining throughout the entire interior—not just a strip glued to the corners.

  • Full-surface microfiber lining
  • Does not yellow: it is not clear plastic
  • The softest to the touch, the most comfortable to wear

Transparent

UV-protected polycarbonate back, flexible TPU frame

Two parts joined together: a rigid back that doesn't yellow, and a flexible frame that can take a beating. The frosted version diffuses light and doesn't show fingerprints.

  • Polycarbonate back: it doesn't yellow like TPU
  • Flexible TPU frame, air chambers at the corners
  • Frosted version available, and version with built-in stand

Leather
03

Leather

Full-surface PU synthetic leather, with no visible seams

The grain and feel of the leather, made from a single piece, without the need for maintenance or animal byproducts. The color develops a slight patina with use; it does not flake.

  • One single piece, no seams that can come apart
  • Develops a patina; does not chip
  • The warmest to the touch in the line

Technique

Aramid fiber, technical weave, reinforced double-shell construction

For those who want more from a helmet shell than just a color. The woven aramid shell is the thinnest and lightest in the catalog; the double-shell design offers the most protection; and the technical weave is what really stands out.

  • Woven aramid: 1.1 mm, the thinnest in the line
  • Dual-layer TPU + polycarbonate shell for protection
  • Machined alloy camera frames on woven lines
