That was a concern of mine too. The Kizzi straps can be fitted so they don't rub on the caseback.

All my casebacks has a plastic to avoid problems rubbing and scratches...

That protection is perfect for the NATO ones

I found this one a while back. IIRC some guy makes them and sells them on his website - but always out of stock because he produces so few at a time. I believe I paid north of $50 for it.

I can actually have these mass produced in the thousands and sell for less than half of that. Not too sure if the effort is worth my while
