Our cases are 100% wood, and if treated with care will prove to be durable. Dropping your case on hard surfaces will protect the phone, however damage to the case might be possible, but the case might not even get a scratch. It all depends on how the case is dropped. If you drop your phone and want to inquire about our repair program pleaselet us know. Above all, our cases are functional, high end design for your phone and are not meant to compete with the protection offered by bulky rubber and plastic cases.
