Craig of That Dapper Chap attends the Otter Box X Red Bull MixTape Vol 3 party at the Red Bull Studios, London and shares the sights and sounds of the event.
With a line up of great artists like Shadow Child, Troy Gunner, Castro and Lokane, among others, the Red Bull X Otter Box event was always going to give us a great night. Making my way across London for Mix Tape Vol 3, I was excited to be a part of it and I wasn't disappointed.
Craig of That Dapper Chap reviews iPhone cases available from The WT Factory Shop for business and for working out.
Mobile phones are everywhere, every one has one and they all look the same. So, how do you make yours stand out? How do you inject some of your style into your accessory and give it some personality? With a cool case, that's how!
That Dapper Chap with That Dapper Kit
The Lux Box Case, a classy edition to your iPhone
The Wonderful Things Factory have a range of phone cases to suit every aspect of your lifestyle. I opted for the real wood veneer case priced at £38.00 ($55.00 or 49Euro) it's a good price for a classy piece of kit. It fits like a glove and looks really sharp and sophisticated.
My own case adds interest and personality to my phone
The wooden veneer Lux Box Case
The team really liked this case. "it's unusual to have a natural product like wood" said katy. Sam commented that "It's really classy compared to a lot of tacky plastic cases that are out there, with cartoon characters and the like. This is a very grown up case"
The case is relatively easy to remove and replace when you need to, with a bit of practice. It's a very snug fit so it does take a bit of work to understand the best way to remove it. I find that taking the top left corner out followed by the right corner works, you can then slide the phone out. It clips back in super easy. You might ask why you'd need to remove the phone from the case, well I'm about to explain!
If you're a runner like me or you go to the gym and record your workouts on the various Apps there are, you're going to need your phone. This is where the SlimClip case comes in. Okay, it's not flashy and it isn't going to win any prizes for materials or aesthetics. But what it will win points for is practicality.
Available in a variety of colours this handy case clips right onto your shorts and you're good to go. Priced at £27.00 ($40.00 or 36Euro) it's handy to have around. When I run I use the Nike Running app and always held my phone in my hand while running. I was always worried about tripping and either dropping my phone or simply smashing it on the ground as I attempted to break my fall. Now I don't have to worry!
Super slim and simple, the SlimClip Case
Clipped on and ready to run. SlimClip stays in place
The brand claim that you can 'Run, Bike, Hike & workout' I wouldn't recommend swimming however;). I was a bit dubious about it's ability to remain in place but I found that it you tie your shorts well and then clip the case on, it won't move. The first time I used it I didn't tie my shorts and simply relied on the elastic. Bad move! The phone bounced around and my shorts did start to fall down. Not something you want!
Craig of That Dapper Chap shows off his Alston Craig vintage leather phone wallet from Tuff Luv
Every other iPhone I see has a smashed screen. They are expensive to replace, and fiddly and time consuming if you do it yourself with a replacement screen from Ebay, like my buddy Sam did. So, to keep your phone safe you need a good case. Great, you now have phone case, but you also have to carry your wallet right? Wouldn't it be great if there was a product that does both? Meet Tuff Luv your one stop shop for any case you'll ever need for your phone, tablet, e-reader, camera, MP3 player or laptop and more.
My vintage leather Alston Craig iPhone case wallet from Tuff Luv
I chose the Alston Craig Vintage leather phone case and wallet for the iPhone 6 and I already love it. With its olive striped fabric interior it has space for all your cards and notes too. Not only this but it has a built in security system, and has an RFID card skimming blocker in the lining to keep your contactless card safe from sneaky thieves.
Not only does the case look great but the box looks pretty cool too
Open the case and it's like a regular wallet, but the difference is that the Alston Craig wallet holds your iPhone in place magnetically so it can easily be pulled out and popped back in at will. No trying to speak on your phone with a flap in your face like you get with some phone cases!
The magnets are quite strong so there's no fear of opening the case and your phone smashing to the floor.
A large money pouch hold all your notes in place
Classy and timeless, the Alston Craig leather case
At £64.99 it's a great product for the price, and if you were to be victim of card skimming, that's only two £30 purchases made by the thief until this price is reached!
Not only that but there's currently free worldwide shipping on this product, so what are you waiting for?
