Holster that will fit Nexus one with case on?

I am looking for a good holster that will hold the Nexus One while it has a case on. I have a transparent TPU case (have to show off the sexy engraving on the back). Does anyone have a recommended case that can hold or adjust to the nexus one while it has the added bulk of a case on it?
I am looking for something like the Seidio Innocase Case Holster which is here on Amazon.
If you check out down in the review area there is a video and a guy reviewed it and it seems to fit the Innocase inside the holster pretty well. Didn't look like it would fall out.
Anyone have any experience or suggestions with this? Let me know. Thanks.
EDIT: I actually just discovered that there are 2 versions of the Seidio Holsters; one for a device that does not have a case and one for a device that does have a case.
You can check out a good Youtube review of the Holster and Innocase here.
You can see that there is a special version of the holster here on Seidio's website.

IMO holsters = dropped phone... Either the phone pops out on its own, or gets bumped...

My thing is that I've had the dust under the screen problem so I wanted to get it out of my pocket. It does raise the risk of a drop though, this is true. Who wants to drop a $530 phone.

Oh, I use horizontal cases, have for years. Never dropped a phone from one, just of course you gotta be mindful when you're putting it in, taking it out.. And personally I always get them with a belt clip (to keep it in place on my belt) and belt loops. One case I had didn't have belt loops and I was always finding the phone in my car seat where it pushed off my belt.
I recently ordered this case... Hopefully coming in the next day or two. Otherwise I have some cheap cases which work, or my beat-to-hell Seideo case.. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001IM61D4/ref=oss_product
Only time I ever pocket carry a phone is when I have a new phone and I'm transitioning between the two, or sometimes on the weekend when I'm just lazing around the house.

I use a nite ize heavy duty holster. Size medium. It fits my otterbox defender and casemate tough case NP.

I use a cellet bergamo iPhone belt clip / holster nice and snug on my innocase 2

i have it. and its very good. case itself is rubberized. with my extreme use holster broke few weeks ago (used it since it came out), Seidio shipped me a new one since their warranty is very long.

Best horizontal belt holster?

I am looking for a holster that:
1. Fits my Epic without making me fight to get it out.
2. Has a belt clip that keeps the phone attached to my belt.
3. Won't break after a few days of usage.
I've been able to find ones by Case Logic and Eddie Baur (at Best Buy) but they both have a belt clip that doesn't wrap around your belt. They'll attach to your belt but get knocked off very easy.

I bought this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/LEATHER-HOLSTER...ccessories&hash=item43a22e69cb#ht_2774wt_1008
after watching a video of a guy doing a review on it. It fits the phone perfectly. It is very new so the leather is kind of stiff and the flap doesn't close completely unless I tap it down until the magnet takes over, but that will work itself out in time. It feels like fairly nice quality, and is cheap as well. Holsters for me typically last around a year max before they are falling apart, so I tend to buy the cheaper ones.
Holster is made of leather interior and exterior. Epic 4g fits in very snug for the first couple fits, and then after half a dozen in and outs is a perfect fit.

How durable are the belt loops?

I have the one from Sprint, no name on the case...it fits the phone perfectly, but the only thing I don't like about it is that with the belt clip on I'm unable to charge my phone because the top clip part goes over the charging port.

Probably not too durable for the cost, but it will last at least a year I think.

I'm using this, they work well for my needs. Just search Amazon for mor info.

"Galaxy S" Case
I'm using Samsung's own Galaxy S case. I got it at the Sprint store (25% off thanks to my Sprint premium discount) and is really really good, high quality leather and nice fabric on the interior.
The phone fits comfortably and is very elegant looking. I'm including pictures!!!

How much was it without the discount?

I use the Galaxy S case also. I haven't found a case yet that'd suit my needs better.

That's the downside of this case, the full price is $34, but considering how well the phone fits and how elegant it looks, it's well worth it.
Just as a side note, I didn't get the case right away with the phone, I searched everywhere for a good case after I got the phone, but couldn't find it, then one day I popped into the Sprint store to solve a problem with my wife's phone and stumbled on it and fell in love, the 25% premium discount made it a lot more attractive

Best Buy
Just got one at best buy that is a hard case and comes with a belt holster. So even when you take it off your belt, it still has the hard case so if you drop it, the edges are protected.

Here are some picks of the one I bought off ebay- expensive but very well made. It looks a little large on my belt but the phone fits real well.

Seidio Active Case with Holster Pictures

I hope these help in making a purchase decision.

Yep, is a very nice protective case. I switch between it and the TPU case. I like the holster too, I just wish I could find a side carrying case that is big enough to fit the skyrocket into while it has the active shell on it while I was at work. If I could find one, I'd probably just keep the active on it all of the time.

Appreciate the variety of pictures you posted. I've been debating the active case, but there are no local places that sell it, which makes it hard to drop that much cash on a case I've never actually seen. It definitely helps to have good pictures to reference.

I thought the seidio case was much better on my atrix than the Otterbox. Do you know if it's as bulky as the Defender case? I have the Defender but I'm a fan of seidio since the Atrix.

I have never owned an Otter Box case but looking at the their website I would probably compare it to the Commuter series.
I choose this one because of the kickstand.

I just got the active case on Monday. It is well built and fits the phone very nicely. My coworker has an Otterbox defender on his iPhone and it is bulkier than the active. The one thing I have found is that while it goes in and out of your pocket easily it always holds on to some lint. I got mine from eBay with free shipping for $23.
Great pictures to help others decide btw.

I just got this in the mail the other day. I had one for my captivate and loved it! I was stupid enough to be suckered into paying way too much for a case at AT&T... But I went ahead and bought this one online anyways, and its sexy! I have a white skyrocket, so I got the white case, and it's kind of pearly and still has the black kickstand and rubber, it looks awesome! I'd recommend this to anyone

I got this case yesterday love it. Protects the phone, it's thin all that nice stuff.
My parents want this as an iPhone equivalent now.
Eighteen bucks from Amazon.

Got mine the other day too. I didn't even consider any other case company besides seidio. I love their cases that much. Never had a complaint about a case from them in the past and I dont forsee having one anytime soon.
Sent from low Earth orbit with my SkyRocket.

I too got the Seidio Active + Holster. Very happy with it. Slim profile, and doesn't add much volume or weight. My only complaint is that the texture (which is quite pleasing to feel) is just a little too slick for my taste. However, I imagine that any "stickier" and it wouldn't slide in/out of a pocket easily. Very pleased over all. The holster is handy, especially since this phone is so much bigger than my old iPhone 3GS, and it doesnt fit into the shirt pocket of my scrubs easily. If i get a chance I'll post some pictures as well...

I have this combo as well. I started with the Pop! case that I got from AT&T. It was the best case IMO, but the rubber started to fray in less than a month. Then I tried the Seidio Surface combo. While this case was thin, it was too slick. The Active is a nice compromise between the other two cases. My only complaints about the active case are that the rubber is too grippy (it snags my jeans pockets and attracts lint like crazy) and the super soft rubber absorbs the vibration function of the phone and renders it almost useless.

I'm curious where everyone is buying this. Amazon have it for > $30.

I got mine off of Amazon for $31.99, free shipping. The link is: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006NYOX3C/ref=ox_ya_os_product
Looks like they increased the price 65 cents. But this combo on the Seidio web site is $55, so not a bad deal...

I just got my seidio active from amazon. I like it so far except for the fact that it is a lint magnet and it is somewhat hard to take out of my pocket.

Looking for reviews on Seidio Surface (good and bad)

http://www.seidioonline.com/samsung...-kickstand-combo-black-p/bd2-hr3ssgt4k-bk.htm
I purchased the Seidio Suface and the Surface holster, received a couple of days ago.
Initial thoughts is this case feels like cheap EBAY plastic shipped from China. The fit seems loose from the top section to the bottom section, case also makes crackling sounds when pushing on the sides of the phone. I am not impressed when holding this case on a call. It really does feel like it will fall apart at any second and my Note 4 will hit the ground.
I would like to know if this is just a problem with my case or if this is indeed how this case was produced.
Thanks

Mine fits like a glove. I love it. I like the feel of the plastic compared to the actual other really cheep Chinese plastics like the speigen. I couldn't stand the tough armor and the neo-hybrid didn't feel much better.
I guess you might have a bad unit, or it's a personal preference thing, I sure like mine though.

I just got mine and it fits perfectly. I like how it feels and it both looks and feels like a very high quality case. I still don't think it's worth $35 & freight but it is what it is. For that price at the very least Seidio should have included side rocker switch covers. As I mentioned on the other cases thread Best Buy sells the Surface as their Platinum Series for $20 less than Seidio and no freight charge. If you can wait until they get them in stock that's how to buy one.
I did not get the holster because the Surface uses a different holster than the Combo so I can't comment on the holster.

Every holster case I have bought, the dang belt clip would always break off when sitting down and bumping something. Has your clip broke off? Looking at this holster makes me really want it, but I would prefer to get a little more use than just a couple days.
Thanks!

My last 2 phones had holsters w/ clips and I used each for 2 years with no problems. My last phone had a BodyGlove ToughSuit case and the one before it had a BodyGlove case that was considerably less rugged than the ToughSuit and the clip was removable. Both of those cases are in as good of a condition today as they were when they were new.

i had the seidio surface with holster for the Note II. i liked the case, but the holster clip broke after a few months of use. seidio sent me a replacement and that also broke within months. hope they improved it on the Note 4 though.

The one siedio holster that I broke on a previous phone, was my own fault. Let's face it though, with the note 4, it's a big phone and you will likely need to be more careful with whatever you get to attach it to your belt, depending on your body type.
Short of a maxpedition magazine holster, I can't see anything else stand up to some of the things I have put mine through. Overall I am very satisfied with mine for the quick access and duability for the price.

Holster Case Options

Just picked up the phone and I am looking for a good case. I always keep phone on the hip, wondering if there is a good holster case for the phone that isn't too bulky. I've been looking at the Supcase Unicorn but was hoping there might be something that provides good protection but is a little less bulky and still has a good fitting holster. Or if there is a clip style holster that can be used w/ a slim case that would be an option as well.

I use a a Seidio case with holster..there around 35 bucks..I got is off amazon not as bulky as the Supcase...

I just ordered this case from Amazon based on your post.
I'm sending you the bill if I don't like it.
Update:
Love it! The case is exactly what I was looking for.
Great feel & surprisingly thin, even with the rubber liner between the phone & the case. At first, I was skeptical about the liner. I figured it would add thickness to the phone, but it doesn't. The kickstand is a bonus, though I doubt I will use it much.

Tip...Rhino guard works with the Supcase holster. It's a little loose but gets the job done.
