Can I use the CLINCH CASE if my cellphone has a protective case?

For best results we recommend using slim cases without rubberized finishes to easily slip your cellphone in and out of the CLINCH CASE. The thicker your protective case the more restricted it will be to remove and store your cellphone.

IMPORTANT NOTE TO CONSIDER: Feedback from testing has shown that the more frequently the CLINCH CASE is used to carry a cellphone the less one tends to accidentally drop their cellphone. While worn, the CLINCH CASE gives you a quick and secure place to store your cellphone at all times.

Is the CLINCH CASE difficult to use?

The CLINCH CASE is an unique and innovative accessory and will take a bit of practice to get used to just like anything else new and different. But once you practice putting on a few times and get familiar with it we’re sure you’ll appreciate its functionality more every time you use it.

Is the CLINCH CASE a cellphone wallet?

It does double as a minimal wallet. We’ve built in a couple of pockets to be able to securely carry a few cards/id’s, keys, currency.

What articles of clothing can the CLINCH CASE be used on?

Basically any type of waistband. Some have even used it on their bikini swimsuit. While being outside the water of course.

Can the CLINCH CASE be worn with high-waisted bottoms?

Yes. For high-wasted styled pants, high-wasted shorts, or high-wasted skirts, we suggest to position the CLINCH CASE on the front side of the body since it will clear the folding crease of the front of the leg and hip connection. If placed towards the back of the body at this higher point it would most likely interfere with the mid part of the torso.

Is the CLINCH CASE machine washable?

Yes. We do not recommend putting it the dryer but rather air-drying. Another options is to only hand-wash the back panel since this is the main area of the CLINCH CASE that rests against the body. Use a semi-rigid brush and a bit of detergent. Washing the back panel only will also considerably reduce the drying time.
