Antique Silver is the way to go. It's Simple, Classy, elegant and represents a company with style.

I like the Black Gold, but I don't think the picture does it justice.
A few of the the others would be good for options.

I like the Italian Gold. Nice and subtle. It would look great with the old fashion chocolate leather.

Got to go with the black gold. Very distinguished with any color of case!

I'm still not sure which one I like best, but I do like the Black Gold. My only concern for that one is how it would look on cases like the ones below. I don't think I would want it on these types, personally. What does everyone else think?

Seattle,
I think if it were a choice, THAT would be the best option. There are so many things that are custom about the cases that it would follow suit that having a logo color choice would make sense, as well.
Or...THEY should pick the best look for each color case they design. Bronze or Gold on Brown. Silver on Black. Black on White. And so on...
Just a thought...

I agree Pizzle
It would be the most awesome if we could pick from all the options depending on what we are looking for on our customization. Some would like discreet, some bold, and some complimentary - being able to choose from them all would be awesome.

Italian Gold. Even though my name does not end in a vowel, I find that in my travels, the Italians are the classiest dressers - jeans (designer only please) sneakers (never - no smelly feet for them) sweatshirts (wouldn't be found dead in one) t shirts with pictures or words (their attitude is why advertise someone else's product for free) and they are the only ones who can wear linen without it looking like you slept in it. Of course I am only speaking about the Italians who still live in Italy, the second or third generations over here are as much of a slob as me.

Is the shield shape changing too?
Maybe I'm just dense, but clear up something for me. Are they planning on going to a round shield as well as changing the color?

No - these are just color samples.

That's what I was trying to say. Brown cases with a black gold shield wouldn't look that good. It has it's place, just not on every case.

I like the Italian Nickel - a very modern approach.

Yeah - I think the Antique Silver may be suited to be used on every case color. Certainly more so that the black one. My $.02.

Another vote for Italian Nickel
I've never been a fan of anything I own to be branded, but I wouldn't mind seeing that on my next case...

All that glitters is not gold...
At least black gold, that is. I went for the Antique Silver because I too feel it will coordinate better with different color cases and also because I think it will hold up better over time. Glossy blacks and over shimmering shades tend to get scratched more easily and show up abuse more readily. Sorta like cars...That's my one cent...if Seattle's vast knowledge is two cents' worth!
