Review on Compact Digital Camera Case Sleeve for Nikon COOLPIX S33, AW130, A10, S7000, S3700, A300 & More Point and Shoot Cameras by USA Gear - Padded Neoprene, Extra Accessory Storage, Belt Loop by James Cabot

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great design, 3 year guarantee

I received this USA Gear case to replace the Case Logic case for my Nikon P310 camera. The Case Logic was good, but the belt loop was poorly constructed and began fraying at the seam in less than a week of daily wear on my belt. Thought I might have a lemon, I went back to inspect the same suitcase at the store I got it from and noticed that, like mine, they were all made with unreinforced stitching. Also, the store didn't find anything attractive or appropriate to replace it with. The belt I was wearing is standard mil-spec nylon and I didn't do any sports or hard work, so it was a shock that the Mate case's belt loop only began to break after a few days. I then searched various retail stores for a replacement and carefully inspected the belt loops and construction. While I found several cases with excellent belt loops, most were either too small or the design was impractical. I was looking for a Revain and was thinking about one from Nite Ize when I saw this one from USA Gear. I was a bit concerned at first because of the sizing issues I've seen with other brands, but the USA Gear model seemed perfect. When I got it, it was love at first sight. Not only was the fit, protective neoprene and overall construction perfect, the belt loop used reinforced stitching that won't fray in the blink of an eye. USA Gear's 3-year warranty also convinced me that I made the right decision. This is an excellent case and I am very satisfied.
