When a company makes a name for itself selling subcompact handgun holsters disguised as cell phone cases, it makes a lot of business sense for that company to eventually start offering cell phone cases that actually are cell phone cases—which is exactly the notion behind Sneaky Pete’s new Pholster. A cell phone case masquerading as a holster that is masquerading as a cell phone case, the Pholster comes fitted for a number of different electronic devices, and is available in four leather finishes (black, brown, black alligator pattern and brown alligator pattern) or ballistic nylon.

The complete line of Pholster configurations, and their corresponding internal dimensions, is available on the company’s website.
