Know before you buy
Yes. It comes with a detachable rope shoulder strap, and you can also thread a belt through the back loop to wear it around your waist.
The case is made from water-resistant 600D polyester. While it will protect your belongings from light rain or splashes, it is not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water.
With dimensions of 8.5 x 5 inches, the case is designed to fit most standard smartphones alongside your cards and cash, though larger 'Max' or 'Plus' sized phones may be a tight fit.
The main compartment features a reliable zipper closure to keep your items contained, and the internal slots help prevent your cards and IDs from shifting around while you move.
The included rope shoulder strap measures 48 inches in length, which provides a comfortable fit for most users as a crossbody or shoulder bag.
