After being away this weekend, I'm back. And with another fun blog post for you all! I'm excited to share this one with you as this has to be one of the coolest phone cases I've ever seen. Check out this Pixar Animation Studios engraved bamboo wood iPhone 6/7 case, sold now exclusively at the famed Pixar Studio Store there in Emeryville, CA! I was able to pick this up for $30 during my visit to the studio back in November.
This case is made by the company Recover (you can check out their shop HERE for their latest products—they seem very high-end). The front panel/exterior of the case is a thin sheet of genuine bamboo (engraved with the Pixar Studios emblem, possibly lasercut?), which is essentially inlayed into a durable polycarbonate bumper with soft, rubberized edges for a solid grip. Holding this thing feels fantastic overall and you can definitely tell that it's real quality hardwood. No two cases there at the store were 100% alike.
I love it—very minimal. Very classy.
This same case also came in a darker wood (walnut), so keep that in mind if you're able to shop there at the store anytime soon. You might even prefer that one! I went back forth for a while as to which one to get, but I ultimately went with this lighter wood for the stronger contrast. Both are great looking though, you can't go wrong.
Below is the case out of the package with my phone installed. Snapped in perfectly and feels nice and sturdy!
Both this bamboo case and the walnut version without the engraved Pixar emblem are available on the Recover website. So if you just like the look of the wood and want a quality case, there's that option for you. Other than that, if you're ever lucky enough to shop there at the store, I can't recommend this one enough to all you Pixar fans!
What are you thoughts? I'd love to hear what you think in the comments below.
