ESR, a global tech accessories brand trusted by over 130 million users, has introduced the Atelier Case — its first vegan leather iPhone case constructed from silicone-based material originally developed for luxury automotive interiors. This product is designed to provide the soft, warm feel of leather while resisting stains, wear, fading, and scratches.
The Atelier Case is available in four colors — Black, Light Gray, Deep Burgundy, and Misty Blue. The case incorporates ESR's FlexStand, which functions as both a camera guard and an adjustable stand that can be positioned between 15 and 69 degrees for landscape or portrait viewing. The innovation features strong magnets with 1,400 grams of magnetic force for secure attachment to MagSafe chargers and accessories. The protective construction includes a shock-absorbing TPU frame, raised screen and camera edges, and a built-in Camera Control cover.
