The GGB is very lightweight and soooo soft. I put the GGB on my postal scale and it registered a mere 1.5oz, including the D-post. That's the same as three AA lithium batteries weigh on my scale, which isn't much weight.
As mentioned above, the Golla pouch case is made of a polyester/cotton corduroy. The color is a rich brown which looks nice and goes with other colors quite well. There is a cool looking green and white Golla logo patch on the closure flap. The area in which the logo is located has soft ridges of corduroy that run horizontal as opposed to the vertical running ridges on the rest of the flap and on the back of the pouch. This area is outlined with a light green stitching that looks nice next to the green and white logo patch. The stitching on the back of the pouch is a dark brown color that blends in well with the darker brown channels that run between the lighter brown corduroy ridges.
The Golla pouch is a top pouch and you can slide your Treo or Centro right down inside the pocket. Of course I think that my Copper Treo 680 goes perfect with the pretty brown corduroy on the GGB. And my Treo fits inside just right; not too loose and not too snug. My iPhone also fits nicely inside the GGB.
The flap closure on the GGB, 5 inches long, is almost as long as the whole pouch, which is about 5 5/16" long and 3 4/16" wide. The flap closure overlaps the opening, and closes with a velcro strap, insuring that your Treo or Centro will not fall out.
I appreciate the extra pockets on the Golla pouch. Besides the main device pocket, there are two other pockets. There is a pocket on the front of the pouch that is overlapped by the flap when the pouch is closed. This pocket is perfect for driver license, business cards, credit cards, earbuds or Bluetooth headsets.
The other pocket is located on the back of the pouch and runs horizontally with the length of the pouch. This pocket zips open and can hold pocket change or spare batteries, etc. The zipper is an olive colored leather with a lime green "G" for Golla on one side. Nice touch. I can't swear that the zipper is pure leather but upon doing a smell test, it sure smelled like leather to me. The inside lining of this pocket as well as the inside lining of the main pocket is some sort of lime green colored nylon material. I'm guessing it's nylon anyway since it has the texture of a windbreaker. Don't quote me on that though because I'm sure no expert on materials. Far from it. ;-)
The extra pockets make this a favorite type of case for me to carry my Treo in. I can travel light by putting my money and driver license in the case and not have to carry a purse.
The Golla Gale Brown Pouch quickly became one of my favorite Treo accessories. The pouch is stylish and I've gotten many compliments on it. People appreciate that it's universal and they know that they can carry their MP3 players or most phones or slim cameras in the pouch.
I like the design, fabric, color, and features. I can carry it just about anywhere, and I enjoy traveling light, which this pouch lets me do. The brown color goes great with my Copper Treo 680 and I feel that my Treo is well protected.
