Anyone find a good (leather) holster (No Case)

[Mike77]

Anyone find a good fitting preferable leather holster? Not looking for any case on the phone, just a holster. Been using the same one my last three phones (blackberry, palm centro, palm pre) and I doubt the Epic will fit and it is pretty beat up anyway.

The problem I am finding is that so many of the holsters are somewhat universal, made to fit many phones and I have heard that with those type of cases, the Epic will likely be a tight fit.

Yeah I am looking as well. I ordered a cheap one but We'll see how it looks feels. let you know if I find another.

Which one did you order? You have a link by any chance? Thanks.

This is the one I ended up getting. Its a really nice leather and the epic fits in perfectly. Go to a best buy to try it out, and then order it online; I was able to get it for around $10 delivered using the Shopper app on my epic.

That one doesn't have that great of a clip. It will fall off your belt.

It's a great case I have been using one since day one. I did add a small rectangular hole on the top end so I can hook up the charger.

Is it a universal case or one made for the Epic? I have heard that Epic fits tight in alot of those cases, is that not true with this one? Thanks.

I believe its suppose to be the universal case for the Galaxy S line of phones. I have it and its a snug/tight fit which is good. You don't want it sliding around in there if the flap opens up. My only gripe about it is that I have almost lost it because I was keeping it by the right front side of my stomach so when I knee or bend over, the whole case comes off my belt. I am now keeping it on the right side of my hip. I still worry about it falling off because i don't trust the belt clip. I'd rather have a spring clip for added security. The quality of the case is very good!

Thanks for the pics, they are greatly appreciated. I am more of a fan of the spring belt clips as well, but it seems, at least for now that this is the best holster out at this time for the Epic.

I agree!

I am waiting for something better to come out soon so I can return this within my 30 days but I will most likely end up holding on to this case. I really want a hard case cover because I know its only a matter of time that I drop this phone, lol. Something good is bound to come out soon.

Returned my rebranded seido case to best buy (made the phone too bulky) and picked up a Rocketfish universal holster for 25 bucks. Does not list the Epic on it, but it turns out it is a perfect fit. Has 2 magnets on the flap, stays very secure

Do not like the belt clip, as was discussed earlier i prefer one the plastic spring loaded ones, but have not found one. This case will do till i can find one of them, maybe even a verticle holster.
