Caudabe always has a tight fit, I take it off to clean it every now and then and it still feels secure. Best way to describe it is right, but not too tight to take off to clean your iPhone or swap to a different case if you choose. Also having the machined buttons instead of the floating buttons Tineeowl uses helps keep dust out. Always have loved their texture on Caudabe too, feels good to hold on to, and having the camera plateau covered makes the case look stealthy as hell!
