What are the best leather cases for the Sony RX100 VII?

Question

I just got the Sony RX100 VII for my trip to Italy next month and I am honestly so stressed out right now. I spent way more than I should have on this little camera and now I’m terrified I’m gonna drop it or scratch the screen within five minutes. I’ve been looking for a leather case for like three hours and everything I find on Amazon looks like cheap plastic or it’s from some weird website I’ve never heard of. I have no idea what I’m doing or what brands are even good because I've never owned a real camera before. Sorry if this is a total noob question but I’m literally about to give up and just wrap it in a sock.

I really need something that fits these things:

actually made of real leather not that fake stuff that peels

lets me change the battery and SD card without unscrewing the whole thing every time

budget is under $75 because the camera already broke the bank

comes in a dark brown color

doesn't make the camera way too bulky to fit in a jacket pocket

Is there a specific brand that everyone uses? I keep seeing Gariz or something but they cost like $100 and that seems crazy for a half-case thing. Does anyone have a cheaper one they actually like? My trip is in three weeks so I need to order something soon... help?

>budget is under $75 because the camera already broke the bank I totally feel that pain! I love my MegaGear Ever Ready Genuine Leather Half Case Sony RX100 VII because it was way cheaper. It looks amazing and has that battery access you need!

> budget is under $75 because the camera already broke the bank Saw this earlier and had to jump in because I was in the exact same boat! I spent so much on my VII that I was eating ramen for a month lol. I ended up getting the BolinUS Sony RX100 VII Genuine Leather Half Case with Battery Access in dark brown and it's seriously fantastic. It is genuine leather too, not that weird plastic stuff you find on the cheapo sites. The flap on the bottom is a total lifesaver for swapping SD cards while you're out walking around. I took mine all through the dusty streets of Athens and it kept the body totally pristine... plus it looks so vintage and cool. It hardly adds any bulk at all so it still slides right into a pocket. Definitely grab one before your flight, you wont regret it!

I used the TP Original Sony RX100 VII Leather Half Case hiking through Italy. It's basically perfect for jacket pockets and that battery flap is a lifesaver. Quality leather too.
