Abstract
A cellular telephone holster includes a holster section formed to accept a cellular telephone. A clip portion is rotatably attached to the holster section and formed to have a circular opening with at least one detent along an inner perimeter of the opening. A spring system is coupled to the holster section and includes a substantially incompressible piston and a compressible material separate from and coupled to the substantially incompressible piston. The circular opening is sized to fit around the spring system. The holster section is formed to have at least one protrusion, and the substantially incompressible piston and the compressible material are insertable against the protrusion, whereby the at least one protrusion contributes to holding the substantially incompressible piston and the compressible material in place relative to the holster section.
