Italian vegetable tanned leather in a saturated red with a pebbled grain and a glossy finish, wrapped around aerospace grade 6061-T6 aluminum machined in Miami for the Leica M11 and M EV1. The plate is where the engineering lives: a concealed Arca profile, an AirTag bay, two quarter twenty threads and full access to the battery, the card and the USB-C port without lifting the camera out.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"ok-intro\"\u003eEvery other FlexCase puts a neutral plate under the leather. This one carries the colour through. The leather is gloss and the anodizing is matte, so the two reds sit at different depths instead of trying to match each other exactly.
