looking for a waterproof pouch w/ belt clip

[garybeck]

I've spent the last hour looking on ebay and amazon and coming up with nothing. I think what I'm looking for is pretty simple and common but I guess not?

I just want to put my Optimus in a case and clip it on my belt. the only particular thing I am looking for is I want the case to be fairly weatherproof.

It seems all the belt clip holders have huge holes on the sides and corners, so you can see the device from outside. I want something that is more protective, is all closed up, and with a nice zipper on it, so dust and moisture won't get in. I would think these would come a dime a dozen. Maybe $10 max... Maybe I'm just not using the right search term...?

Or am I the only person in the world that wants something like this?

something maybe like this, but without the extra flap on the front:
Amazon.com: Lowepro Ridge 10 Camera Case (Grey): Electronics

or like this but without all the holes on the sides and corners:
Amazon.com: Dickies Rugged Nylon Pouch for HTC EVO 4G/Shift 4G/Thunderbolt/Inspire 4G, Motorola Droid 2/PRO/Bionic, Samsung Galaxy S series and other Mobile Devices (Black): Electronics

(not that it matters but my optimus is in an otterbox... I want to keep the otterbox on and slide it in this case) probably one made for an ipod would work. seems like a pretty simple thing to look for but I can't find one.

Kinda bulky, but try these:

Backbone Cases | Nite Ize

The size 10 may be a tight fit with the OtterBox, and the next bigger size 20 too big??? Dunno...Try and find a retailer store and take the phone there and try 'em.

BTW, seems it would be hard to find waterproof belt clip type cases..I think you mean water-resistant?

ive seen one that's superposed to fit any smartphone. the only thing is that it doesnt have a beltclip but a lanyard. it is called the aquabox. Aqua Box - Waterproof protection for your mobile smart device

The two examples you cited are not waterproof, nor water-resistant. They just enclose the phone and protect it from brief liquid encounters.

I'm currently using one of these:

It's more than your $10 max requirement though. I use and like it very much for my particular needs. This does not have a belt-clip but have a belt-loop instead which is more secure IMO without the bulk so I can just slip it into a pocket when needed--again suits my needs better. It also has the ability to securely attaches itself to most any shoulder/backpack strap up to 2.25" wide. There's also a small pouch/compartment in front which holds my spare battery.
