The accessory is the customer delivered in a pretty white window box. As an added security transport the Case embedded in a plastic cup.

In addition to the standard colors white and black are the iPad Air owners, the colors cognac / vintage, black / vintage, black / nappa, cognac, purple, red and navy blue to choose from. I chose black for the classic in color. The processing of the leather is very good. The look is very stylish and can appear very classy iPad Air in its sheath. The seam of the hinged lid is trimmed with a white thread, thus ensuring color accents. The thread in this case runs parallel and very clean to the outer edge.
The inside of the cover is lined with a soft fabric made of microfiber. This is to protect the sensitive display of the Apple iPad Air from scratching. To break up the look, the microfibre is very subtly decorated with the logo of Goodstyle. The leather on the back is glued to the plastic cup. Again, there is no optical flaws that exist to criticize at this point. No formation of burrs, no crooked edges, everything seemed very visually clean and well finished. Here, the higher purchase price already reflects visually the product again. By that I do not want to say that effective products can not be processed equivalent, but with such a high-priced product, I expect this just good solid quality.
The Apple iPad Air can be pressed into the plastic shell without much effort and then sits firmly and securely in the seat. The removal from the plastic shell also runs without difficulty and greater use of force. Here you have in choosing the material a healthy mixture of stability and elasticity found. The edges of the plastic shell are inserted at iPad Air slightly above the display of the device, thus providing also further protection against damage from outside.
