Review:
This case was shipped in a nice display box, wrapped in plastic. This one is a custom color pattern called Nubuck Brown. The main portion of the case is a dark brown colored suede, and the flap and back portions are a dark brown leather. The inside has a thick felt lining offering lots of protection. The flap has a magnetic snap closure with the logo embossed and their small metal emblem below it.

It has the fixed, metal heavy duty belt clip, and it is very strong and will fit almost any sized belt. It has a very low profile when worn, and does not rub into your hip at all. I do feel that this clip could be pushed off of your belt accidentally, with enough force. Not very likely, but possible I wish the bend in the top of the clip was tougher, to prevent the clip from being pulled out at all unless you mean to do it. Overall, very easy to wear with little notice it is there. The case has a sleeper magnet that works perfectly, allowing you to insert the device either face in or face out - your choice.
Rating: I give this case 5 out of 5 Berries.
Conclusion: An absolutely excellent case for those searching for a vertical pouch. Though I mentioned the clip could use some closing to ensure no slippage, I still really like it. It is sturdy and easy to put on and take off your belt. This is just another version of precision by our friends at Fortte.
Pros: Very stylish, exceptional materials, customizeable color combinations, low profile belt clip, affordable, sleeper magnet allows insertion in either direction.
Cons: Some may not like a gold emblem on the front of their case, the belt clip could be squeezed together a little more to ensure a tight grip on your belt.
