Pouch for 815?

Has anyone ran across a good, nice fitting belt pouch for the 815... leather or otherwise? I already have the OEM belt clip and Moto leather case. I like the look of the leather case, buy the clip mechanism just hangs too far off the body. I like the phone a little tighter/closer the the body.

Thanks for your replies.

I bought a Samsonite universal case in the small size for about 9 bucks at Wally World and it fits perfectly. Clean design, holds the phone close to the body and it swivels 180 dgrees too.

I used one for a v600 for my 710 and it fit perfectly and lasted over a year that I had my 710. I retired my 710 (after 6 replacements) and bought an 8100 and it fits that perfectly too. I got it at Best Buy for $29 and it is still in perfet shape. Lated longer than any pouch I have owned.

Motorola sells a pouch for this phone. Look under accessories when you bring up the phone. I ordered the pouch, holster and leather case for under $50 shipped, directly from Motorola. The leather case will be the Motorola OEM one, not the VZW advertisement. I should have mine on Tuesday...

Thanks... that's the leather cover I ordered. I wasn't about to give Verizon $20 to advertise for them. I'll bet the Moto logon is under that Verizon patch.

The Moto one looks different from the VZW one. My VZW one has the clear plastic all the way up to and around the camera lense, the Moto one looks like it's leather all over that side except where the display is.

Now that I look at it, you're right. The Moto only has plastic over the outside screen. It's leather everywhere else.

Anyone had both the Moto leather case and the Verizon leather case? Any differences besides the leather being around the camera lens and the other one with the VZW logo? For instance, is one closer to the body...does one work better for a thicker belt, anything worthwhile to replace the VZW one I have? Thanks.

I had both. I like the MOTO OEM since its slimmer. I don't like the belt clip as it turns to easy. I liked the VZW case but hated the belt clip as it cut my belt. I noticed at my local Circuit city store that they sell replacment clips and one of them has more room but I don't feel like spending another $20. I bought the Body Glove and MOTO OEM and the VZW. If you have the VZW and hate the clip check out the CS store to see if they have a wider one. Since the phone is heavy it makes the phone even havier with the case.

So if you had to choose one between the Body Glove, VZW, or Moto OEM...which would your final decision be?
1.When you say the Moto OEM is slimmer, do you mean held closer to the body?
2.What about quality differences between the three cases?
Any more input?

Well forget about the Body Glove becuase the camera alignment sucks so in my book its not worth it until they fix it. I liked the VZW when I get it but hated the clip that ripped my belt. Like I mentioned before I think there is an updated belt clip to use for the VZW case but I believe that was a separte purchase that will put you back $19.99+$5.00 . The VZW and MOto OEM look similar but the Moto one only shows you the external display but I believe the VZW shows you more front face. They are both not close to you and like I said the Moto OEM hinge is too loose so it moves more if you sit in the car and it moves it will flip your phone into a different direction. The quality on the VZW is nicer but the leather on the OEM case is better....
