    I’ve had my iPhone 5 for 6 months now and it has been inside an OtterBox case since day one. The problem is the OtterBox belt clip has broken on me twice now. The tab that snaps on to hold the phone in place has broken at the same spot both times. OtterBox sent me a replacement the first time, and I need to request another (I have to say the OtterBox online warranty system is outstanding) but now I just don’t trust it.

    So I’m looking for a new belt pouch to carry my iPhone with the OtterBox case already installed. Here’s what I’d like to see:

    Black real leather, not some synthetic leather knock off.
    No magnetic flap closure – I have enough problems with my credit card magnetic strips.
    Slip on belt loops preferred but any belt clip that won’t come off accidentally would work.
    Enough room that the phone will go in/out of the pouch using only my right hand.
    The ability to pop the phone in/out of the pouch with the earbuds still attached.

    I cannot find such an animal. I cannot even find something close so far.

    Any suggestions?

    Sounds like a custom job to me.

    Check out Col. Littleton. He makes some very nice leather goods, and has a bunch of phone holsters. I don’t have one of his holsters but I do have several other items. Really top-notch stuff, but also very pricey.

    Can’t post a link but google: Col. Littleton

    If you want to go the custom route there’s a gentleman in Arizona that makes firearms and flashlight holsters at what seems reasonable prices. He doesn’t have phone holsters listed but I’d bet he’d make one to your specs.

    again, google: thorshammercustomleather

    BlackHawk Small or Medium Accessory case. Black, Tan, Green, Brown.
    Look at the measurements I forget now which one my boss uses, it goes on the belt and is pretty life proof.

    Life proof makes a holster no?

    Seido makes excellent clip in carry holsters. Normally they have “compatible” otterbox case holsters (although you will have to search google to find out which ones fit). The address is seidoonline.com
