Digital camera Review: Great carrying case
Summary: 5 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
This is a very nice carrying case for your GPS. I particularly like the caribinder, as I am so apt to lose things. It has a neat little zip pocket for an extra battery, too. Very nice!Digital camera Review: Great item.

Apart from being well made and very useful, this is great for small handheld GPS units. It has a pocket for memory cards and you can get a pair of AA's in as well. I like the way it snugs up and it would appear to protect your gear.Digital camera Review: Handsome case, but could be improved

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I have long been looking for a case for my Garming etrex vista GPS. Up to now, I've been carrying the unit in my camera bag, mixed up with my DSLR. This case, then, fills a real need. Although the neophrene material isn't particularly thick, I found it provided plenty of protection for my (admittedly) rugged GPS. Most of the reviewers here have complained about the tightness of the battery pouch, and it is a problem. I had difficulty opening the zipper on the pouch all the way, as it tended to catch on one of the batteries. But there is a slight advantage to not having the batteries loose: they won't fall out when you unzip the pouch, nor will they jostle around while in the pouch. In any case, I don't find the tight fit of the batteries that big a deal. I'm a bit more concerned about the decision to use an "extra-sturdy" carbiner as the means of attaching the device to one's person. No doubt the carbiner itself is sturdy enough; but I wonder about the material used to attach the carbiner to the bag. And if you hook the carbiner to a belt loop, the bag tends to bounce around a bit against one's thigh. I would have preferred the ability to attach the bag to the belt itself--although, to be sure, I will admit the carbiner method allows fast access to the bag itself, as it's very easy to clip it on and off to access its contents.
To sum up: the bag, despite its imperfections, has worked quite well for me on some of the shorter hikes I've used it on; but I am just a little concerned on how well it will hold up on longer jaunts.
Digital camera Review: It is what I expected.

With all the cold weather, I haven't really used this. It is what I expected and don't see any problems with it working as it should.Digital camera Review: Lowepro GPS carring case
Summary: 5 Stars
Case seems well constructed and the clip looks like it wouldn't come loose. I wish the little side pocket was big enough to hold 2 batteries. My G5 Garman goes thru batteries pretty fast.
