Personally I prefer to keep my cellphone in my pocket. But when I don't have a pocket or want my phone in my purse this little leather pouch is perfect! I always keep it clipped to the inside pocket of my purse so I can just slip my phone inside when I need to. Plus, I love the little ring above the clip. I like to keep a small key chain pen and hand sanitizer (I'm a Mom) hooked there for quick access.
