Just found this on eBay. It's not made by Otterbox but it is made specifically to fit the EVO while still in the Commuter case. I'm sure plenty of you are looking for something like this so here you go.

Nice find. If I hadn't all ready made my own, I would definitely buy this, I sill might anyway.
Hey... This thing makes phone calls too!
That looks pretty cool. They also have a vent mount one instead of the windshield mount. I might pick one up also. I sure love the Commuter Case!
FYI this is the same seller where I got my car mount for my platinum case.
Here is a thread.

They hand form these so they don't look great or lined up perfectly. But they do work.

I love my Nexus One's pouch case that came bundled with the phone. I am not a big fan of adding skins and layers to my phone. I am just looking for a pouch case where it is protected when in my pocket. Anyone know where I can get something like that? It doesn't have to be an official case.
I got a HTC branded pouch case that fit my EVO perfectly from Sprint store. I believe it is 29.99 and if you have premier discount, it is ~$22. I love mine.
Are you looking for a simple form-fitting pleather pouch or something that protects it a bit more perhaps? I can't help you w/the first but I've heard the Lowepro Tasca 20 will fit the EVO, may not be an exact fit but it's made of neoprene and it looks pretty nice if you're gonna toss the phone in a bag at any point...
I've got one I've used for my iPod touch in the past, fits a bit loosely, I can confirm whether it fits the EVO alright tomorrow.
No something simple like you first said. I am okay with a simple pouch to just keep in my pocket. That Lowepro Tasca 20 seems decent. Basically the idea I am looking for.
Yeah, being from neoprene it's gonna be a bit thicker than something made out of a cheaper material but it also protects it a bit more... The top closes w/a simple metal clasp (again, that might add a bit more bulk than something w/o a clasp), I'll let ya know tomorrow how tight it is around the EVO. I hope UPS drops my EVO early!

Got a picture of this or a link?
I didn't see any pouches whatsoever at my store... Just hard cases and silicon skins, haven't seen it online either, I'd be interested in pics of it as well.

Stopped by my Sprint store yesterday and they were sold out. Sales guy actually told me they'll likely get new Evo's in before they get more of these leather cases in stock.
FYI I bought a leather case from verizon for the Droid, it fits the Evo 4g in nicely. But it's for coneecting to your belt. Maybe some Droid stuff will fit the Evo in?
try this maybe?

This is the HTC leather case w/belt clip from Sprint. Specifically for the EVO, I have it and it fits like a glove.

I just got it today. It's nice and snug. I like it.
Any other pouch suggestions? Or "socks" - my wife is in need of something for when she throws her Evo in her bag... The old ipod sock-type cases would be perfect..

For those wanting a quality car mount, here it is. ProClip stuff is awesome. Its pricey but it works.
Completely worth it if you go with the fixed install.
I just ordered mine, I've always loved proclip.
Ordered!
I've been waiting for this bad boy to come out.
I wish that they would sell the basic holder without the swivel. I think that the entire mounting system looks much better without it. Oh well I'll just throw it in a box like I did for my G1 swivel mount.
I have a N1 ProClip holder somewhere around here. I need to see if I can figure out a way to mate it to a quality suction cup mount. If so, Ill get the Evo one.
do u guys know if the non-adjustable one works w/ the innocase II case? doesn't look like it, but figured i would ask....
this can be in landscape mode no problem huh? i should mention and it stays in landscape mode without any movement?
i bet this would work nice with an otterbox too...
hmmmmm
any videos anyone?
I dont think it swivels without leaving it loose.
I was thinking about it, but it us too expensive,i might just try a cheapo vent mount one to start
Sent from my HTC Evo 4G using XDA app
An alternative to Brodit/ProClip?
I'm sure this will work:

Yeah, it's for an HD2 but it may work..the Evo is just a fraction of a millimeter thicker, but essentially the same dimensions. The holder is wide open so all the buttons are exposed including a hole in the back of the holder for the speaker/camera. Even if I have to mod the holder a little once I have it, for $7 and free shipping and it fits on a standard Nuvi mount, which I got rid of anyway now that I have the phone's better Navigator....I'll take a chance with it before spending over $50 for a product that does the same thing. Just my two cents.
It should be here in a couple of days, as I ordered it about 5 days ago....I'll let you all know how it works out.
Cheers
i guess im out of luck since im using the sedio rugger holster.

the proclip one does not, but the slipgrip holder does. I took one of my old TP2 proclip mounts' ball joints and adapted to the slipgrip, its somewhere in the post where the slipgrip is reviewed in this forum

Use the ProClip iPhone holder that they also suggest for EVO's with cases.
Does anyone know of a holster clip for the HTC Aria? I was selling a Blackberry Curve 8530 with a clip that has the front of the phone facing the clip, which ended up looking really cool, and I'd like one for the Aria. I've checked around places, and I have found no holster clips at all that aren't really just pouch cases.
Been looking for one myself for a while and finally came across this one:
http://www.wirelessemporium.com/p-56311-premium-force-holster-w-sleep-mode-function-for-htc-aria.asp
Ordered, but haven't received it yet so I can't comment on quality...
The best holster I've found is one for a "classic" ipod. Do a little cutting to open the area up for the screen. It's cheap and easy. I can use the phone either in the case, or slide it out..

Looks to be the same as one I picked up @ wirelessground.com/htc-aria-accessories.html They actually have quite a few products for the aria.
Don't know anything about them as I just ordered the holster last night.
update on the holster - although not as nice as the seidio holsters I've used with my other phones, this one does the job nicely.
Thanks for the uodate. Can you leave it face-in with this holster, and if so how easily does the Aria eject from the clip? Alternatively, can you leave it face-out and answer calls without removing it at all?
Does not fit face-out.
Face in, it's a nice tight fit. Almost too tight.
Works well once you get used to it...
So ordered sat received Friday. Seems to be a nice holster. Fit is tight, felt is a nice touch, and it has a nice low profile.
For $12 I'm certainly not going to complain, and have no problem recommending it for those looking for a holster.

I ordered one myself, judging from descriptions this is exactly what I am looking for, thank you dew.man for the recommendation!

Unfortunately, this clip broke last week as I was scraping ice off of my car Windows, looks like its time to look for a more sturdy one.
cheap plastic, heck all rigid plastic does not handle freezing temperatures very well.
Does anyone have the proclip car mount for this phone and is using it with a case? My proclip order is on backorder. I'm kind of peeved with their customer service . . . for spending over $100 on a car mount I'd expect at least some halfway decent service. They don't answer their phone and ignore half my e-mails.
Anyyyyywho . . . I might like find a phone case this would work with. Any recommendations?
Sorry to hear you are having issues with them. I have dealt with them for years and they have been wonderful and responsive to my queries.
Expensive but the absolute best products.
I bought item# 875214 to hold my GNote with case or whatever as it is adjustable. The have a specific holder for Gnote but that would not accomodate a case, bumper what have you.
Hope this helps.

I have a Note with a case and already had the 875214 (for a Captivate with case). It does fit in width but with the thin tpu case I have it is floppy back and forth at the top. It is fine like it is since it is not going to fall out but I would like to find a way to tighten it up by narrowing the slot or find another Proclip adjustable clip that is made for thinner phones.
proclip.
I have a proclip with an adjustable holder. kind of an universal one. I think proclip is a great deal. will add pictures soon
If anyone is interested in taking a dremmel to their expensive Brodit holder, I got my i717 to fit with the Ringke Slim case by dremmeling the crap out of it. Still fits pretty snug without the case, too

Looking for some feed back from anyone whose purchased this car mount...What is your take?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/360-Degree-...ccessories&hash=item484413d8e2#ht_6033wt_1115
Neat mount, gonna pick one up
I've never used the one you posted but if I may suggest a few extra bucks for this one: http://www.amazon.com/Arkon-Mobile-...ST18/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1329510397&sr=8-3
It is very very high quality, very sturdy, and is way cheaper than it should be. Hopefully I'll get a review up in my free time. It fits the E4GT with the TPU case also.
