Finally Quality Leather Oasis 2 case

Like, most people I was disappointed in Amazon’s original offerings of Leather cases. In my case the big issue was the weak magnets. In the past there have been some nice quality leather covers for older Kindle’s from manufacturers like Oberon.
I purchased the Kindle Oasis 2 case off Etsy from Hand and Hide in Dark Chocolate. The bad news is the price, $129! The good news is this is quality leather with the smell and texture you expect from good product.
This is the kind of leather that gains character with handling and age. In my opinion the feel of a nice leather cover adds to the reading experience.
It does not have magnets in the cover, so you lose the auto sleep/turn on function. In my case the trade off is worth it.
I have owned the case for a few weeks, so it still needs break-in. See the attached images.
Cheers, Joe
