Key fob case?

I've been searching for a leather case for my key since day one. Anyone find one that will fit the new key style? I have the 4 button like the pic. I keep the keychain double hooked to a belt loop and I stuff the key in my pocket, always by itself, but it's still getting banged up.

Inside dimensions say it's only 2" tall, key is almost 3". Unless I'm reading it wrong. Would be great if it fit. Let us know when you get them.

I think it'll fit as the overall dimension is 2.75". The pouch is 2"
Overall measurement is 2 inches wide x 2.75 inches high x 0.75 inch thick.
Compartment measurement is 1.5 inches wide x 2 inches high x 0.50 inches thick.
Looks like there is room to fit it in. If not, $3 is not a lot to throw away.

Maybe I'm just paranoid, but I purchased an "RFID" pouch on Amazon. It blocks the radio frequency from being broadcast. I don't have my car yet but we tried it out on my friends brand new Mazda and it blocked the signal all the way up to standing right next to the car. I was just reading how people hang out in store and mall parking lots trying to snag a frequency as people walk by. There are several different sizes to fit cell phones, wallets, credit cards.

Not needed for the new type Fob's as they all have rolling codes. They change all the time.

Here is a good read.
When the owner pushes the unlock button, the remote transmits the code to the car, which then checks that the code is correct and unlocks the doors. Both the remote and the car then generate a new code, and when the owner presses the button again, it sends this new code to unlock the car and creates yet another new code. If a thief were to pick up the code while it was transmitted, it would already have been used and would not work again.

If an owner presses a button and the remote is too far away for the receiver to intercept the signal, the remote creates a new rolling code but the receiver does not. To avoid an owner locking himself out of his own car or garage if he accidentally hits the button from too far away, the remote and receiver are both designed to generate 256 random new codes each time a code is used. If the remote transmits one out of these 256 rolling codes to the receiver, it will still unlock the car and the two devices will sync back up and generate the same random codes because they both contain the same number generator designed to create the next set of 256 codes.

Though 256 codes may not seem like a lot, it's virtually impossible to unlock another person's car, even if a person happens to have a remote designed to work with the same type of receiver found in that specific car. The chances of having a compatible remote and that remote generating one of the 256 codes the person's car will accept is still smaller than one in a billion. A thief would need years to find the right rolling code, making the rolling code system a fairly simple, yet reliable, method of safely locking and unlocking items using key-less entry devices.

Here are a lot of choices. One of them might work.
