Sick of lugging a bulky purse around to carry your essentials? Keep your cellphone close at hand and never fumble in a clutch or bag again with Bandolier’s new cross-body case, currently available in a variety of models and colors for the iPhone 5/5s.
The sleek iPhone case hangs from a slim 52-inch chain or strap that clips onto two metal loops at the bottom of the case, allowing wearers to drape their iPhone unobtrusively across their chest or hip. The lightweight case is the perfect accessory for those who want to go purse-free while attending music festivals or exploring new locales.
With clips at the bottom of the case as opposed to the top, wearers can use their iPhone simply by reaching down and tilting it up, rather than twisting and rotating the device.
The back of the case provides a cut-out for the camera lens as well as two slim, horizontal pockets for credit cards, IDs, business cards and cash, enabling users to go light and eliminating the need for a wallet.
Available in faux leather and snakeskin in several colors and strap styles, cases are priced from $40. Bandolier can be found online, as well as in stores, boutiques and fine hotels throughout the United States and Japan. Pre-order for iPhone 6 and 6 Plus will be available soon.
