It is my second one. I had one on my iPhone 5. I love it because it made my flimsy, slippery iPhone 7 more sturdy and easy to hold and handle. I also liked that I could customize it. Pretty in pink and grey!
I bought the slip cover because the first one stretched out only within a few months. This cover system was very expensive and wished it worked the first time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Trent,
We are sorry that your original Defender Series slipcover stretched out. This is understandably disappointing and we wish that you would have reached out to us first. We could have easily replaced your damaged slipcover through our warranty.

Previously, I had the Defender Shell/Slip Cover/Holster with my iPhone 6. So, when I upgraded to the iPhone 7, I had to have the same Defender Case. The rubber Slip Cover and Holster (both sold separately) have saved my iPhones from damage, more times than I can count. In addition, there's no need to purchase an expensive screen cover because the Plastic Shell (case) incorporates one in its design. Though it's not waterproof, I clip my iPhone to my motorcycle (while riding) and the Defender Shell (and rubber Slip Cover) do a great job at protecting my iPhone from the elements. Bottom line: I wouldn't own an iPhone without the Defender Plastic Shell, Slip Cover, and Swivel Holster to protect it.
I got this case a few weeks ago and for the most part I love it. My only complaint would be that it's too easy to get dust underneath the screen cover. I have to constantly take the case off and clean it. But for the most part it's an awesome case.
I really liked the Otterbox for my iPhone 7. I had one for my iPhone 5 and it has only just started to fall apart almost 4 years of tough duty (the charger end). I was happy with the colour choices and very impressed with the speed of delivery basically 1.5 days
