Just looking at the picture, it seems the belt loop version is almost the same overall thickness as the version with neither the belt loop nor the clip, whereas the clip with the ring thing is slightly thicker and maybe, less comfortable.

The Nutshell clip will absolutely damage the back side of a leather belt when taking the case on and off, its very rigid. It takes about 4 pounds of pressure to open the clip 3/4 of an inch to slip it on the belt. If your not sure what that feels like hang 1/3 of a gallon of milk on your finger. But people never open the clip with their finger to slip it on and off they pry it on and wiggle it off. Its possible the damage would be noticeable at the top and bottom of the belt from the front view.

If you never thought you would need to carry you phone when wearing only pocketless shorts and a t-shirt, sure the belt loop case would be great. I only know one person who has the belt loop case and they love it. If you get it and hate it your only out 20.00 (10.00 for the shipping to you and 10.00 for the shipping back).
