A phone case is probably the accessory we think about the least, yet it’s the one we carry everywhere. It says more than we give it credit for—a clear case with a Polaroid feels sentimental, a leather one keeps it simple, and if it’s got charms dangling off it, you’re fashion-forward and love to stay on-trend. With the new iPhone out, we pulled together the freshest cases to shop now — because if you’re upgrading your phone, it deserves to dress the part too.
Crocs x SLBS
For the edgier crowd who love making a statement, Crocs (yes, the footwear company) have dipped their toes in the phone case market. Collaborating with South Korean label SLBS, the phone case comes in its iconic clog design, where you can stick charms in. Although funky and fun, we can imagine how bulky this is going to look, so you might want to opt for men’s jeans with gigantic pockets so you don’t have to struggle with storing this.
RIMOWA
Yes, the luggage brand RIMOWA also does phone cases. And they come in their iconic design as well! If you ever want your phone to look like a mini suitcase in your pocket, slip their signature Silver case on.
Otterbox | Symmetry Series Cactus Leather Embroidery
Made with Cactus-based leather, this phone case is embroidered, giving it a texture and feel that you would normally get from clothes. And unlike the Crocs, this design isn’t bulky so it can easily slip into your pocket.
Urban Sophistication | The Puffer Case
Urban Sophistication believe phone cases communicate just as much as the phone they decorate. So you can find plenty of funky designs but the one that stands out is their Puffer Case range. Made to look like puffer jackets, you can find this case in all sorts of colours, prints, and character ears that add personality.
Bellroy | Phone Case – 3 Card
Although plain, this case says just as much about the type of person who chooses it. With a built-in mini wallet, this case is perfect for those who commute through public transport and hate carrying cash.
Bandolier | Lily Duet
Similar to the Bellroy case but with a fancy strap so you can be hands-free on an evening out. It also features a mini wallet, transforming the phone into a micro mini bag.
Casetify
Casetify is known for phone cases that both protect and champion local artists. You can also customise your own phone case, truly expressing yourself through your case. But if you don’t want to do all that, we recommend their Snoopy Case series that calls back to your inner child.
Rhode | lip case
The lip case was the It-girl case of last year. Although it hasn’t released iPhone 17 versions, we have a feeling that when they do, they will be back to making the rounds on TikTok and Instagram.
