      Canvas straps can be good quality, less sticky, and last way beyond the lifespan of any consumer grade electronic device.

      Not to sound like I’m a textiles expert, so don’t come at me

      I have sixty year old hobnail boots that are still solid. Synthetic material would have failed long ago.

        Yeah but now imagine they were part of a sixty year old computer. Kind of a waste if you ask me.

        The electronics here will be grossly obsolete within five years.

          I wasn’t implying there was a need for a sixty year old computer, just that some natural materials are superior to their substitutes.

            I got that, I was just repeating the number. My point is that leather is more durable than is necessary for a consumer electronic, especially one from Apple which has made planned obsolescence continuous innovation a cornerstone of their business.
