Protective iPhone Cases

A protective case is for the drops, scratches and pocket keys that come with real life. Our range runs from Nomad's Rugged cases, with 4.5 m drop protection and 5 m in Horween leather, to Pitaka's slim aramid-fibre ProGuard and UltraGuard cases, which are drop-tested to the MIL-STD-810H standard, plus Pomologic and BodyGuardz. Rugged cases are thicker and take more impact; slimmer ones protect against everyday knocks and stay comfortable in the hand. Several are MagSafe compatible. Use the filter to find the case for your iPhone model.

Questions about protective iPhone cases

What does a drop rating mean?

It tells you how far the case was tested to protect your phone, for example a drop onto a hard surface from 4.5 m. Different brands test differently, so use it to compare cases from the same brand and treat a MIL-STD-810H test as a recognised US military test standard.

Rugged or slim protective case?

Rugged cases add thicker corners and more material, so they absorb bigger impacts but feel bulkier. Slim cases such as Pitaka's keep the phone slim, with aramid fibre and a reinforced frame. Choose rugged for outdoor or heavy use and slim for everyday carry.

Do protective cases work with MagSafe?

Pitaka ProGuard and UltraGuard and the Pomologic Rugged case are MagSafe compatible, so they charge and snap on accessories without taking the case off.
