Horizontal Case for MiniMed 670G

Does anyone have suggestions for a horizontal case for the MiniMed 670G to wear on a belt?

I just started using the MiniMed 670G closed-loop insulin pump system. The belt clip is a PITA! It's difficult to remove from belts, pockets etc. The little tip at the end snags on the whatever it is clipped to. It holds the pump vertically which means I am constantly being pocked in the stomach when sitting in the car or at my desk or on the couch.

The horizontal leather case is out of stock on Medtronic's website. I searched Amazon.com and found a universal cell phone case that is within the dimensions of the MiniMed 670G.

I also looked into a case for carrying extra diabetic supplies, e.g., infusion set, CGMS sensors, batteries, glucose meter, test strips, alcohol wipes, etc. But ... most of the kits are designed for people using needles, syringes or insulin pens.

Does anyone have suggestions for a horizontal belt case?

    I have the same issue. Have you found anything yet?

    1. Hi John, I didn’t find any solutions for daily use. They were all too bulky. I defaulted to using the clip provided with the pump. 🤷
