We have been looking around the interwebs for months, searching for the right phone holder we could cover in beautiful veneer. I just could not put a pop-socket on my phone; it felt way too silly. We finally found it and promptly ordered 5000 of them. Small, lightweight, strong steel construction, and flexible; We're calling it the "RNGR".

It has all the features you are looking for and more style than should expect from a simple accessory for your phone. These are great looking ring holders, with or without the wood, but you know us... If there is a flat surface, we're putting wood veneer on it. At first I thought it might be dumb but I was 100% wrong. (yes honey, you were 100% right). With the wood veneer, they look way better than I expected. Stylish, elegant even, the RNGR covered in wood is beautiful.

Customer Questions and Answers

Is the RNGR covered in real wood?

Yes, every one is covered in real wood. Each wood is hand selected by our team for beauty and uniqueness. Wood options for most all of our wood accessories include Mahogany, Black Walnut, Carmalized Bamboo or Aromatic Cedar.

Can I still use Qi wireless charging?

Depending on the placement of your RNGR on the back of your phone or case, you may still be able to use Qi wireless charging. We can’t guarantee it of course. You should buy one and test it with your specific charger.

Can the RNGR be used with magnetic car and wall mounts?

Yes, the RNGR is constructed from steel and then covered in real wood. It will work great with magnetic car or wall mounts.

Will the wood get stained and ugly?

It could, but unlike plastic and other synthetic materials, our wood accessories actually get better looking over time. We ship our products with only one light layer of polyurethane. This means the wood will age and the more you use it, the more the wood will look authentic and vintage. Some artisans actually use coffee to stain wood in beautiful mocha hues.

Should I get a matching wooden phone case?

Of course. Who would want a beautiful Aromatic Cedar case and a matching RNGR with a cedar back. Something like this: 

Should I get matching sunglasses made of wood?

Duh. How cool are you on Saturday afternoon with a Bamboo phone case and matching Bamboo Frame Sunglasses. Seriously.

There are millions of different world map images. Take a look at this world-map Google Image Search for proof. But you have to go somewhere right? The trick is choosing and half the fun is thinking, and planning where to go next.  

Although modest, and not too far off the beaten path, my wife and I did an adventure filled 24-hours in Rome.

I think we squeezed in 20 or more sites, amazing food in charming sidewalk cafes and barely saw the hotel room. I think that’s how it’s supposed to work.

Of course, after killing it in Rome for a day, we needed 7-days of perfect relaxation in the Italian countryside.

Not a lecture – but, I promise, traveling will teach you...

Change is good – and it can be impossible to know what change you might need until you get out there and experience it. I have NEVER met a traveler who said: “I regret going on that trip to the Andes; I should’ve just stayed on my couch”. Just doesn’t happen. Travel is change. You will come back different, and glad you did.

Learn stuff you didn’t know you didn’t know – right, there’s lots I don’t know. An even bigger universe of unknowns is the stuff I didn’t even know was out there. Travel is about genuinely new experiences that cannot be replicated in your hometown.

Meeting new people – at the end of the day, or the end of your life, I promise, you will not regret the things; you will regret the time lost with people. Travel is about meeting and appreciating people. The people that will make your life a rich and diverse tapestry of knowledge and probably some lifelong relationships.

Customer Questions and Answers

Is the phone case covered in real wood?

Yes, every case is covered in real wood, hand selected by our team for beauty and uniqueness. Wood options for most all of our cases include Mahogany, Black Walnut, Carmalized Bamboo or Aromatic Cedar.

How well will this case fit my phone?

The slim-case fits your phone perfectly. No blockage of the camera port. Sure grip textured sides to enhance your grip and easy access to all ports and buttons.

Does the phone case protect my screen?

Yes, our slim-cases have a slightly raised lip around the front edge to prevent your phone screen from touching surfaces when placed facedown. Of course, you should always add a glass screen protector.

Can I still use Qi wireless charging with this phone case?

Yes, WUDN slim cases do not interfere with Qi wireless charging for iPhone 8 and X models or for Samsung Galaxy phones. Just be sure to center the Qi receiver in the middle of your charging pad.

Does the phone case protect my camera?

Yes, the phone camera is recessed behind the camera cutout. Although the camera is not covered, because that would result in potato quality photos, the camera should be safe from typical drops.

Will a case protect the resale value of my phone?

Yes, keeping your phone in excellent condition goes a long way towards maintaining high resale and trade-in value. You should keep your phone in a case at all times - and always add a real glass (not plastic screen protector). As iPhones and Samsung Galaxy phones get more expensive, the resale and trade-in value has been going up as well. For $25 now, you could add several hundred dollars to the value of your phone when it's time to upgrade. Read: 6 Ways to Boost the Resale Value of Your Phone

Will I need a dongle for my headphones?

No, the WUDN slim cases come with a properly sized cutout for the headphone port (on iPhone 6 models) and lightning port. You will NOT need a dongle for your headphones. Having said that, how about a matching set of Walnut Bluetooth Earbuds.

Can the WUDN case be used with magnetic car and wall mounts?

WUDN cases do not come with a steel plate built in. We are looking to add that feature in the future. In the meantime, we know of many customers that have added a steel plate inside their WUDN case with great results. Here is a 4-pack of metal plates designed exactly for this purpose.

How do you make a wooden cell phone case?

We did a long form blog post about that complete with pictures and videos. Take a look: We Built a Laser Engraved Phone Case from Scratch

Should I buy more than one WUDN phone case?

Of course. We have a number of designs from cool artistic skulls to the "Sawtooth Mountains Traveler", and most of our cases are available in different wood types and species. You should have a couple of cases, at least, to change your style to match the moment. Monday through Friday in the office call for a simple, conservative case, and Fridays in the club call for something with a bit more style.

Will the wood get stained and ugly?

It could, but unlike plastic and other synthetic materials, our wood cases actually get better looking over time. We ship our cases with only one light layer of polyurethane. This means the case will age and the more you use it, the more the wood will look authentic and vintage. Some artisans actually use coffee to stain wood in beautiful mocha hues. (make sure your phone is out of the case when you decide to drop it in your coffee).

Can I customize or personalize my phone case?

Of course, we offer a full custom shop here. The process is simple: find your image or logo (in black and white - jpg format) and send it to us. Pretty straightforward. We will get to work on design and production right away. You can also customize or personalize a matching journal/planner, mousepad or flask. How cool to have a personalized wooden phone case and a set of matching wood accessories.

What is TPU and why do I care?

Thermoplastic Urethane - A hybrid material, TPU is a mixture between hard plastic and soft silicone. A very dense and smooth rubber, TPU cases are made to slide in and out of the pocket easily, without attracting lint. TPU cases are more durable, slightly elastic and much stronger than silicone. WUDN uses TPU case templates which are then covered by real wood.

Should I get matching sunglasses made of wood?

Duh. How cool are you on Saturday afternoon with a Bamboo world-map phone case and matching Bamboo Frame Sunglasses. Seriously.

Phone cases are touched, used and seen every day – nothing else comes close.

10 Reasons Why...

Steal this and use it for your clients...

A Sample Offer You Can’t Pass Up...

Read On >>>

I spent 20 years in corporate marketing buying promo products, and a year on this side of the fence as a supplier to the promotional products industry. Some promo products are simply better at conveying a brand message thousands of times throughout the year. Here’s our take on the top 10 reasons why. Simple, compelling and mostly obvious. Feel free to copy / paste this for your next prospecting email.  

1. Phone cases have high visibility

Seen by the owner up to 30,000 times per year. And, phone cases will be seen by others throughout the users day. People literally hold the phone up in front of them while texting or talking, displaying the case for all to see.

2. Phone cases have excellent utility

Phone cases get used <period>. I have drawers full of promotional USB drives, and a closet full of golf shirts. They were great once, but nothing like a phone case that I will literally carry on my person every day.

3. Phone cases go literally everywhere

Home, work, church, grocery store, daycare, the tradeshow. A custom branded phone case will go everywhere your clients and their clients go.

4. Phone cases are small, lightweight, easy to carry and easy to ship.

Enough said.

5. Phone cases work internationally

Between the iPhone and Samsung Galaxy over 80% of the global smartphone market is covered.

6. Phone cases deliver instant gratification

I may not wear that shirt until tomorrow (if at all) but the phone case, I can slip on immediately and begin enjoying (and communicating a brand message) right that minute.

7. Phone cases are cost effective

Cheaper plastic cases from China can be had for low single digits. Laser engraved, real wood phone cases, handcrafted in the USA from sustainable forests can be had for less than $10 at reasonable quantity.

8. Phone cases are highly customizable

Of course, plastic cases can be printed with virtually anything, in any color. Wood phone cases with a laser engraving are still highly customizable while delivering the user a more subtle brand image and higher style, increasing the likelihood it will actually be used.

9. Phone cases are fast

Wooden phone cases are laser engraved and assembled in the USA. Reasonable quantities can be built and shipped in days, not weeks.

10. Phone cases are safe.

No batteries, no sharp edges, no warning labels, and no shipping restrictions. Phone cases are easy.
