The company understands that looking good is not the only factor in creating a phone case, but that it needs to be able to protect the phone that it is holding. This is aided by the brand's 'puffed' bumpers that support all four corners of the phone. Additionally, it also has a raised rim that surrounds the iPhone camera to keep all three of the lenses protected from any scratches. The Ripple Case comes in a range of neutral colors including white, oak, black, cacao, and latte. The rest of the capsule features a rope crossbody strap, a stone case for [AirPods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allblack-phone-cases), and a Bounce Band for Apple Watches.
