i bought one of these for my girl and before i gave it to her i sprayed the jeebus out of it with scotch guard so when she does get something on it im able to get it clean with minimal effort.
yes i know its a little late for that but if/when you get it clean just get some scotch guard and spray the **** out of it.
so far it seems to be holding together quite well she's had it for 6 months and its still all one piece and looks brand new.
Yeah I too liked the plaid design Speck cases. But I got worried about the durability of the fabric so instead went with the rubber Speck Pixel HD case. Great choice, no complaints.
