Where do y’all keep your phone?

Last season I slammed on my phone in my pocket and broke the screen. Luckily I was due for a new one.

I got a tree fort lifestyle chest suspender pouch afterwards but it kind of jostles a lot and is annoying / looks like a chest tumor if I put it under my hoodie.

any luck with a Fanny pack sling type thing? Like when it crosses from your waist to your shoulder.

any other ways y’all avoid smashing your phone?

Phones aren't core. I only keep cigarettes in my pockets.

If you break your phone while skiing you may or may not suck. Unless you’re trying like lip disaster 4 onto a 40 footer. You could always go the safe route and shove it in between your ass cheeks like a chip only debit card.

I have a thinner base layer with a breast pocket and it has a little openings in the back for your headphones which works perfectly… then I throw a hoodie on and it usually doesn’t bounce around or go anywhere

I just keep it in a breast pocket in my jacket. If I slam my chest hard enough to break my phone, I have larger problems than my phone.

Don't ski with it. Or I keep it in a protected part of my backpack if I'm in the Sidecountry/Backcountry.

Lmao its technically a bontrager biking jersey but it’s a thinner but super warm pull over then I usually throw a hoodie on and a vest over the hoodie and I’m set, (when I ski I get super hot and sweaty so I don’t need much) and I put my phone in that pocket on the right

Usually in my right shorts pocket because I usually fall on my left side. Put it in my chest pocket and just happened to have a penguin slide fall, not fun. Leg pockets are more comfy to fall on.

You must be some sort of animal who doesn't use a phone case.


I went two years without a phone case. Never dropped it and kept it clean. One day I stepped out of my car after a day of skiing and it fell out of my sweatpants pocket. Shattered right there on the road. Never again

When I wear bibs- chest pocket

when I wear pants- right pocket, cause I usually fall on my left side.

In my right pants pocket. Even though I seem to always land on my right side when I fall the pocket is far enough forward that I haven't landed on my phone...... Yet ...
