The Maxpedition phone holster referred to in my post above was ordered from Amazon.com and arrived just now. It is just what I wanted/needed.

My iPhone 4S is in a protective case which makes it a bit longer than 4.5" high and 2.25" wide. I ordered the 5" holster and it fits just fine.

Best there is a metal clip that won't be breaking when I get into the passenger side of a car, like the genuine imitation plastic ones have done.

~$22.

This holster explicitly comes with two clip widths and states: "This Duo kit includes two clips - one 1.5 for regular belts and the other 2 wide for duty belts used in Military and emergency services such as law enforcement, fire rescue, and all tough-jobs."

This reminds me of the time I was driving from Austin to Houston and came across a couple of Aggies in a field with a telephone pole. One Aggie was up at the top with a tape measure, while the other Aggie was at the bottom struggling to hold the telephone pole up. I couldn't help it. I stopped and went over to make a suggestion, that they could lay the pole on the ground and measure it that way. They looked at me like I was the dumbest person on earth, and said "Oh, man, we want the height, not the length!"

The problem is not the width of the belt but the thickness.

I had this same problem with my Beltman belts, and it was solved when I was getting in a car on the passenger side, whereupon the entire Otterbox Defender clip destroyed itself. The replacement from Amazon was worthless and sent back. I think I will be ordering a Mexpedition http://www.maxpedition.com/store/pc/5-C ... tm#details at about a third the cost!
