Anyone found a good leather pouch the fits the phone snug ? There are many on the market but its difficult to see what will fit until after you have bought it.
I was looking at the following pouches:
1. proporta maya II
2. generic ebay
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HTC-TATTOO-WH..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches?hash=item2c5275c988
3. pdair pouch
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Vertical-Leat..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches?hash=item3a56487841
4. the PDAIR one again looks nice:

anyone tried the HTC C310 ? it doesn't look like a good fit to me as its generic for too many phones
I received one of the black PDAIR leather pouches today. Fits nicely, but is a bit tight. I think it's gonna take a few weeks use to loosen it up. Nice product though.
It doesn't have any cloth interior like I expected it to, it's just leather inside. Not a big deal though.
I was after something like the official Diamond pouch, and this is similar, but maybe a bit thicker than I'd have liked.
I'll try to get a picture up if I can.

thanks. PDair is normally quite good quality. Surprised the pouch is not lined
I got this leather one from ebay and does the job for me. Item number 230407012111.

Hello,
just received the case for my HD2 from pdair, in fact this one:
http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000801&products_id=24581
It's not my first purchase via pdair. If anyone looks for a classy case, built of fine and soft leather and manufactured on the millimeter, simply go for this case !
This is no advertisement, I neither get paid by pdair nor am I affiliated with them in any way (unfortunately...).
Already purchased the case for the Touch HD from them.
Actually the HD2 also fits in there and this is what I did until the new case came today.
I'd been a bit concerned therefore if they wouldn't offer the same case in disguise for two different device models.
Well they didn't
I have always preferred "horizontal pouch type" cases, they are most practical to wear, that's at least my experience.
Only downside was:
If you live in Europe, like I do, its quite some distance to Hong Kong and I had to wait for the good to arrive (unfortunately air cargo space over Christmas time becomes additionally scarce).
Let's hope they will have some distribution point in the EU region some time.
As far as I could see there is no retailer in Europe offering their cases.
In case someone knows one, pls post here.

I ordered the same pouch. I am using a brando black silicon skin on my hd2 and I hope that with the elastic sides of the pouch I can put my phone with the silicon skin on in the pouch. This is simply impossible with other pouches. (I've bought already 2 pouches) I will keep you informed when I receive my pouch. I think that many others will be interested in a pouch in which they can put their phone with a silicon skin on.

Oops.
I am sure this will be problematic as I said:
The pdair case is no "generic case", as offered by several manufacturers (already was "cheated" myself by such resellers, sent back these cases of course), it really fits on the millimeter.
Yes, there is a rubberized, flexible strap on each side of the case, but as the HD2 itself is very thin, these straps are as well.
So if your rubber cover (or case) is very, very thin, the HD2 might fit in the pdair case with it.
Yes, just post your findings for others.
If it won't fit in and you can't use it or pdair won't take it back (never had to return anything to them), put it on ebay and post to others they can get a cheap good case there for the HD2 ;-)
Regards
ghl10000
I had a look on the website, and the cases look very professional. I have ordered one for my new HTC HD2, which arrives tomorrow.
Cheers!

I've just ordered it, from the UK! Its from a company on Ebay for £15 with free delivery. As ghl10000, I've had some of their products before and l'm using my HD PDair case with my HD2, but decided to take the plunge once I found this on Ebay (and used my Ebay Plus Points voucher ) Had one for my N95 as well and have never been happier. Very high quality and perfect fit.

I've received today my pouch and it fits ... tight, but it fits. I've to use some force to close the pouch but I think it will fit better after some time. This is for me the first pouch which fits my hd2 with invisible shield and silicon case. I don't think a better protection is possible. I am to test it out the next days. The pouch itself is well made of soft leather. The only concern I have are the elastic sides of the pouch, but I am not to much concerned about this because I usualy buy a new phone every year. (one is already speaking of the hd3 for the end of the year?)
edit : I've removed the invissible shield on the screen because it is to soft for this pouch - it gives an 'impression' of the innerside skin of the pouch (where the magnet is). I've reinstalled an anti-glare screenprotector which gives no problems with this pouch. The invisible shield was also too reflective in the sun.
i got my alu case from pdair a few days ago (ebay 19 Eur) and have the following problem: it looks like that the elastic band which should protect the hd2 is a little bit too thick!!!
the effect is, that when i close the case, the lid pushed on the corners and a couple of contacts are executed (most in the corners) and the hd2 begins to react - looks like an animated film, but i can´t laugh!
they will ship me a new one (package was prized out with originated for htc/leo hd2)...
regards
how good are these cases. anyone bought them? cant find reviews anywhere. they look nice but want to know the quality

Looks like this one:

which I ordered and is in the mail. I'm not sure if anyone has reviewed it yet; will post when I get it.
i received mine from that company today. they sent me the wrong one. its for hd2 but different case, material & colour. fits great but i'm unhappy. it picks up dust like magnet.
hi
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350284373086&_trkparms=tab=Watching
this is hand made case
PDAIR is good Product but for me I choose Krusell rather then PDAIR.
I used PDair for my Imate 9502 and Krusell for HTC HD and now I'm looking for Krusell for my new HTC HD2
Guys -- This is my first post, I hope I'm in the right place. I was just visiting this forum to see what info might exist regarding the PDair Aluminium Metal Cases. I recently purchased one (Product Code: 1BHTH2B51) for my HTC HD2 and am extremely dissatsfied with it. I just want to add my comments in support of others who have previously also expressed dissatisfaction with this case. The problem is specifically the design of the case which permits the cover (with or without the plastic screen protector) to touch the perimeter of the telephone screen setting off various applications randomly (see attached video demonstration). The problem makes the telephone completely unusable while the cover is closed. I have emailed PDair to express my disatisfaction with the case design and their response has been evasive, to say the least. My honest advice would be to to steer well clear of the PDair Aluminium Metal Cases for the HTC HD2 until they are redesigned.

It might be helpful to anyone considering the PDair metal cases as opposed to the leather ones.
PDair Horizontal Vs Vertical
I'm swithering as to whither i should go for a vertical or horizontal PDair pouch for the HD2. I've previously had a horizontal pouch for older phones but the size of the HD2 concerns me, i'm thinking that the HD2 might sit less awkwardly if vertical. Anyone have any thoughts on the matter?

The best case would obviously be the Piel Frama iMagnum HTC HD2 case, its prolly also the most expensive one. Down side is the long delivery time, i am currently allready waiting for 2 weeks to receive mine.

I bought one of those cases from NETIMES.COM (http://bit.ly/6s1eNy) and it's quality. For less than £3 it's a steal! Quality fitting with great protection. Adds minimal bulk to the phone and is very durable. The scratch resistant screen of the HD2 takes care of itself and the case does the rest. Everyone who has an HD2 should buy this now. Top marks! 9/10.

The PDair luxury silicone case is great Does not pick up much dust at all due to the textured surface.... fits snugly without much play...
I wished someone would make a nice brushed aluminum and rubber hard back... a combination of those two materials would make for a beautiful backing/case for our HD2's

I bought this case here in the states, 4 day shipping. I really didn't want to spend this much for case, but wanted to protect hd2. This is best case I've ever seen, great fit, & protection, corners are real well protected. Very happy I decided to get it.
Awesome!!
I went for a rubberized one also by them instead.
never used a rubberized one before, this time i really wanna give it a try.
+1 for the Piel Frama iMagnum. I got a plain black one and it is by far the best case I have ever had, my friend (who also has the HD2) called me mad for paying so much for a case, but when he saw it, he promptly went out and ordered a custom model with his name on etc. The iMagnum range is beautifully made, perfectly designed and offers complete all round protection for the HD2, if you have don't mind paying that bit extra, I would strongly recommend it.
As I use my HD2 with a gel case, I can't use a normal leather case which are to tight to fit my HD2. I found on ebay a seller who will make a custom case with the dimensions of my HD2 with gel case. Besides the dimensions of your phone you can customize your case in different ways, even with your own words engraved.
I didn't have to pay more then the normal price for a leather case for a HD2.
I think this could be very useful info for everyone who has a gel skin on his HD2. Ordered mine today and will give feedback when my case arrives.

I ordered this case and wasn't impressed. First one wasn't done with the right cutouts so they sent a second one. The belt clip on the second one wasn't tight around my belt and just kept falling off. Pretty much just gathering dust in my desk now.

Just received my leather case today. It's well made and a perfect fit. I've chosen the wider belt clip, it is holding tight on my belt, so no problems concerning the problems mentioned above. I think this leather case will not gathering dust in my desk.
This seller is also the only place so far as I know that makes custom leather cases from given dimensions.
Hello guys.
I am searching for a new case for my note 2.
Currently i have a tpu case on the back but I want something different.
Thought to get a wallet case (spigen) but they are so bulky. Don't think that I will like it.
Now i decided to look for a slim and nice leather pouch.
I found one from buggati, mumbi, krusell luna and the original Samsung pouch.
Which one can you recommend or doym you have other nice options for me?
Thanks in advance

Anyone out there?

I just ordered one of these yesterday. I had one of their sleeves before for my Galaxy Tab and it was great. Good padding, well-made, very inexpensive. The protection on the sleeve seemed reasonable, though I cannot yet comment on this new item.

Pouch
First I went with one $9 belt pouch from eBay that was junk (I can fit two Note II inside). In the past I had Monaco pouch with belt clip for my ol;d Samsung smartphone running Windows Mobile and it was the best pouch I ever owned so I did some search and found that Monaco has a horizontal (and vertical) pouch designed specially for Note II. It cost more than average pouch but I can assure you it is really a high quality product and N2 fits inside well. I've ordered it from here along with car charger to get free shipping:

Can you post a link to that eBay case or do you want to sell it? I'm looking for a belt holster/pouch that I can use with a case. The two I've bought so far will only hold the naked phone.
Have you seen this from Samsung?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/GENUINE-SAM...627481?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item20cd23c719
I don't like this horizontal case. The original pouch looks great and is really slim but I don't know how it holds the phone and how you can push the phone out of the case.

I've been using this

It's a leather vertical pouch. I like it so far.
I use this one:

Im looking for a pouch where it can fit while in a case havent found one yet
Sent from my lovely note 2
So got the Waterfield case. It's a thin sleeve, won't really provide any protection from drops (just protection from scratches and scuffs in a pocket). It's not bad, and at $10 it seems reasonably well-made. Fits nicely. Really just a cloth pouch though.

Looks the same as the one you don't like but for $5 can't go wrong. I like it. It has rings as well as a belt clip. It also holds the note 2 with a tpu case on.
Hi all,
As above, looking for a leather pouch that is a good(not too tight) fit for the edge
Must either have a pull strap to get the phone out (and be a reasonably tight fit so it doesn't fall out)
or
Must be a sensible fit with a flip magnetic clip to hold the phone from falling out
Anyone seen any that are released yet for UK buyers?
Thanks!
Reiko or Cellbee. Both are on Amazon. I haven't used Cellbee before but it has good reviews.
My Reiko is still holding up well after 2 years.
Sent from my SPH-L720
Thanks I'll take a look!
KAVAJ do some nice leather pouches and cases too (genuine not fake PU cap leather)
The below is their first product which I'm getting for s6 edge. Their rest of the portfolio line up will follow suit
Of if you just want premium leather pouch then go for a company like hard graft (but they are very expensive)
Rebecca Minkoff
Try searching for Rebecca Minkoff leather pouch for s6. I am still not allowed to post pictures of the item but I guess that is the pouch you are looking for.
Search this Euro ebay like store for uniquely designed goods. Many wallets and pouches https://www.etsy.com/
Thanks for all suggestions
Will check them out
Budget it around £30 (slightly more maybe depending on quality / any guarantee offered)
