Product Description

This excellent Garmin Etrex case provides the ease-of-use of a holster but the protection remains intact while in-use. An extremely rugged, all custom-molded case, provides an easily-gripped textured rubber surface for all kinds of weather. (impervious to water) The outer surface sheds dirt easily, yet it is almost a magnet for fingers! Battery Access: Just Loosen the Lanyard Lock to remove the Etrex GPS in 3 seconds! This clamshell case hinges at the top. This 'Living hinge' contains a layer of Polyethylene, to withstand 10s of thousands of openings and very rough use. Backed by GizzMoVest's Lifetime-Warranty against defects and workmanship. Use 'In-The-Case': Ports allow easy access to ALL 6 buttons! The buttons and screen become recessed to protect them and avoid unwanted waypoints. This Protective Case adds just 2 oz to your eTrex. However this case DOES NOT float. The lanyard with safety clip enables the device to be worn around the neck or securely fastened with the Belt Clip. Check out our FIVE STAR vendor ratings!

This review is from: Garmin ETREX CASE for Hcx, Cx, Hc (**NOT for the 10.20,30 models - Search 'GizzMoVest' to see that version) Protective Holster Case compatible with Garmin ETREX C-series GPS in 'Special Ops Black'. Compatible with color-screened Legend, Vista, Venture & Summit. Genuine excellent protection. Includes "Peel & Stick" Screen Protector. Accessories MADE IN THE USA by GizzMoVest LLC (Electronics)

I purchased my FOARM "E-Z-Grip - All Terrain" GPS case for my Garmin 76CSx last month, and I am very happy with it. In my opinion, this case and the other two FOARM cases on the market (the "Hikers & Kayakers" case, and the "Non-Skid Marine" case), are superior to those made by other companies. I researched for several months, looking for a good case to protect my GPS investment. I found the "E-Z-Grip-All Terrain" FOARM case to be much more protective than the rather-thin nylon case made by Garmin, which costs a little less, but provides much less protection. In addition to its thicker, better construction, the FOARM cases allow one to use the GPS while it is still in the case. The Garmin case, on the other hand, requires one to remove the unit from the case to read the GPS.

All three FOARM cases come with an excellent nylon lanyard and a strong plastic clip that allows one to clip the unit anywhere for extra security. I find this particularly useful while river-running, as I can clip my GPS to my raft and know that it won't get bounced off while bouncing through a Class IV rapid.

This FOARM case is very-well made, and the rubberized exterior feels durable and is easy to hold. The clear screen protector included with the case is a nice finishing touch by FOARM, protecting the GPS screen, which is the most delicate part of the GPS. In my experience, the GPS screen inevitably gets scratched without a protective cover, and the screen protector included with the FOARM case works very well.

I am an avid mountain biker, back-packer, white-water rafter, and skier, and I can rest assured that my Garmin 76CSx is well-protected while adventuring, thanks to my FOARM protective case for the unit. I highly recommend this case to anyone using their Garmin GPS for outdoor activities.

This is the third case I've purchased for my Garmin GPS 76 and it is by far the best. Superb design, top-notch quality! Case fits like a glove. Screen protector offers crystal clear protection. Excellent customer service.

I took my Garmin 76 GPS river rafting (in my Foarm case)
The textured case made the GPS easy to grip when wet.
It also dried quickly (the foam and rubber are impervious to water).
I highly recommend this case to anyone using their Garmin GPS for water sports!
