iPhone Case "AndMesh" Adopts New Japanese Material "Elastomer"
The key is its overwhelming quality, made entirely in Japan. The iPhone case "AndMesh," crafted from elastomer born in Japan, is compatible with iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. It has garnered high praise not only domestically but also internationally, including at the renowned Parisian select shop "colette."

What is Elastomer, the New Material Born in Japan?
Elastomer, a new Japanese material, is highly heat-resistant and durable, and is a very tough material that is resistant to embrittlement even when squeezed hard or bent. It is harder than the TPU and rubber materials currently used in many iPhone cases, and softer than polycarbonate, achieving a perfect hardness that prevents breakage.
By uniquely blending this elastomer, the "AndMesh" iPhone case achieves a precise strength that is "not too soft, not too hard – easy to grip and easy to attach," making it ideal for an iPhone case.
Combining the durability of a hard case with the flexibility of a soft case, the elastomer case features a mesh design that subtly reveals the Apple logo on the back. Its form fits comfortably in the hand with use, and the anti-slip effect of the mesh further enhances its functional beauty as an iPhone case.
A Wide Range of Color Variations is Also Appealing
Since the color is kneaded directly into the material itself, there is no worry of fading or color transfer. For the iPhone 6, a total of 9 colors are available: red, pink, turquoise, orange, yellow, blue, white, clear, and black.
