Hey everyone I'm looking for a case for my S4 I currently have the spigen neo hybrid attached to the phone but was wondering if anyone knows of any cases which will allow me to put my S4 into it without taking off the spigen neo hybrid case? anyone know of a pouch of some sort which will allow me to do this without it being to much of a tight fit?

Your case is pretty thin. Here is what I would suggest:
Amazon.com: Large Oversize Samsung Galaxy S3, S4, & HTC One Smart Phone Case Pouch Holster w/ Belt Loop, Belt Clip 5.75x3x0.75: Cell Phones & Accessories

The OP asked for a case that his current case would fit inside. That's not happening with an Otterbox.

I use an Otterbox as well, but the OP wasn't asking what we use. If you took the time to read his post he was asking if we;
"know of any cases which will allow me to put my S4 into it without taking off the spigen neo hybrid case"
Your insults towards the OP about calling him a woman for using what you consider a coin purse are not only rude, but it also explains what you are 1 infraction
away from being removed from this forum.

Re: Looking for new Case

lol call me what you want mate but I wouldn't be using it on my belt, holding it in my hand and hardly keep it in my pocket . I always use a camera backpack or camera messenger bag and put my phone in there since I do photography I often need to move around bend down and what not which makes it uncomfortable for me to carry in my pocket plus phone can fall out of my pocket very easily (usually need to wear trousers & shirt) just needed something to put it into while its in my backpack/camera bag so it doesn't knock around with anything in the bag when moving from one place to another a softer case will protect my phone and my equipment whilst also being able to take it out of the case easily plus I don't like the look of the otter box that's why I want to keep the neo hybrid case on since I think it looks much better imo.

I hear ya! I am also a photographer, and agree with you. I do like my Otterbox, but I understand where you are coming from. Ignore the trash, and go with what you feel is best

We don't do photography with our phones......Wow! He I am sure, and I, both use full SLR cameras....I don't know why I bother, as you don't seem to read anything before
you put your foot in your mouth. Long story short. That's GREAT that you love Otterbox. As do I, but THAT WAS NO THE OP's question. It wasn't what YOU like.
It's what would FIT over TOP of his EXISTING case!

Chill out guys, I bet metle understood what the OP asked, but he probably was giving an opinion on a different possibility.

Lets be open to other suggestions, the OP might end up liking a different case altogether.

I'd it seems the op like thinner cases the only thing that might fit over it is a rubber bumper of sorts you must keep in mind that almost all cases are molded to fit the body of the phone to be slightly loose but maybe to a millimeter of tolerances to compensate the slight bending in the poly carbonate body of the phone any case worth it's salt would be a nice tight fit so it's possible to double the cases but it might not be practical and might even damage both cases or the phone

So I am a little confused as to what the OP wants. I kind of get the sense that it is a belt clip with a case. But he wants a thinner case.

So here's my two cents. I actually use an otterbox commuter that's not too thick but I do prefer to have my phone on my belt because I'm a mechanic and its annoying in my pocket. However I do have the need for more protection than a naked phone offers. I have found that the belt clip made by seidio fits perfectly with the commuter on the phone. Been using it for a couple months with no problems.

I'm not sure if I exactly answered the question but I figured since my situation is similar I'd give my 2 cents.

P.s. I'd love to see some of your photography.

That sounds about right. Would you also post a pic of your phone with those 2 cases?
That might help the OP a lot more.
