A transformable holster ( 10 ) for a portable product ( 12 ) can include a lower base portion ( 22 ) having a receptacle for receiving a lower portion of the portable product, and an upper base portion ( 14 ) coupled to the lower base portion. The lower base portion moves relative to the upper base portion and the transformable holster can transform into a compact holster when the upper base portion is detached from the portable product. The holster can optionally include an intermediary portion ( 20 ) pivotably hinged to the lower base portion and the upper base portion and a biasing member such as one or more spring loaded pivot joints ( 17 and/or 19 ). In one alternative ( 70 ) using a dove tail arrangement, one among an upper base portion ( 72 ) and the lower base portion ( 74 ) can slide into each other to form the compact holster.
