Not just "designed" in America. Proudly made in America from day one.

Your smartphone is useful, and you probably need it close by. The catch is that its cameras, microphones, and location tracking gives hackers, stalkers, big tech and data parasites access to your private life- and this can happen even when the phone is Airplane Mode, and powered "off". The American-Made, Bison Leather, Refuge Ghost Faraday Sleeve makes it disappear in those moments of your day that you’d like to keep private, from the morning meeting to the nightstand, protecting your private life and personal information. It's also a great "barrier" to help simply unplug once in a while.
With thousands of users around the globe for years now, our time-tested and proven 3.0 Ghost Sleeve blocks all signal to and from your phone, including higher frequency 5G that other sleeves miss. In addition to the signal, Bluetooth and location blocking, it is also the first and only Faraday sleeve with sound blocking added. Yeah, we don't think those hyper-specific ads after you talk about "that thing" are coincidence either. A step up from our discontinued 2.0 sleeve, the 3.0 has beautifully hand-painted, color matched edges, which allow heavier-duty usage for customers using the Ghost Sleeve “in the field”. Made entirely in America, not just "designed" here.
Every minute your phone is in the Ghost Sleeve is a minute that your private life cannot be tracked and sold by data thieves, stalkers, and hacker opportunists.
Most wait until they have a security or data incident to take their privacy seriously.
The Ghost Sleeve is for those who plan ahead.

FAQs
Why is it more expensive than a Faraday sleeve I saw on Amazon?
Our Ghost Sleeves are made in America, by hand, using premium American Buffalo leather and a premium, doubled Faraday lining. Their edges are hand-painted with a color-matched paint for durability and inspected individually. We take every arduous step possible to keep our customers' cost the same as when we launched the product years ago, at a margin just enough to keep us in business, without selling out to foreign factories.
If budget over quality is a customer's only concern, we encourage them to try a sweatshop-made, velcro, synthetic sleeve from a one-week old company on Amazon. There is a chance it may even work. If they don't accidentally send you gloves.
“The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.”
- Benjamin Franklin
How do I use it?
From the business meeting to the nightstand, the Ghost Sleeve was designed to block all your phone's surveillance features whenever you want total privacy, while your phone is not in active use.
The Ghost Sleeve is not meant to bury your phone 24/7, nor can it be used while your phone is actively being used.
But I have nothing to hide.
Any time you wouldn't want a hidden camera, mic, and GPS recording and following you, you should consider that your phone is all the above. These moments are what the Ghost Sleeve was designed for.
Beyond the shorter term security and blackmail risks of stalkers and hackers (and this happens more often than it makes the news), big tech has also proven to be highly untrustworthy with its access to these features on our phones, from insecure storage of our personal data, to ignoring our privacy settings, and selling details of our personal lives behind our backs.
It's not about what you have to hide, but what you have to protect.
Doesn't Airplane Mode or turning my phone off keep me from being tracked?
In short, no. In airplane mode, some outgoing signal is blocked, but location and other signals can be received. They can be tracked even when powered off, as a phone isn’t actually off until it’s battery is removed. For more information on this question,click here.
Will I miss out on texts or voicemails?
Texts and voicemails missed while your phone is in the sleeve will be received once signal is regained outside of the sleeve.
Will it drain my phone's battery?
While it is true that battery can drain faster than normal as a phone repeatedly tries and fails to find signal, this issue is solved by quickly swiping the phone into airplane mode before longer periods in the sleeve.
Does it protect me from WiFi/5G radiation, and EMP?
We start with a premium quality Faraday fabric inner lining, and then add a custom touch to it to make it even stronger, blocking even higher frequency 5G that other sleeves miss. We are confident our American-made sleeve will protect your device from tracking, radiation, and EMP as well as anything on the civilian market.
Privacy, security, and peace of mind, at the drop of your phone.
Your trip to the grocery store, detailed to which aisles you paused at. Your friend’s house. Your child’s school. Flock cameras and shadow companies scanning for your phone's Bluetooth and personal identifiers every time you pass. Everything we do is recorded by our smartphones and sold to various shady data companies, behind our backs, thousands of times per day. The tech giants are forced, almost annually, to admit they record audio, tap our cameras, and track our location, even when users have those settings "disabled". The data collection persists, even when your phone is in Airplane Mode, or "off". So far, in 2026, Apple spent nearly $2B acquiring a startup that specializes in "deciphering whispered speech", and Google admitted to recording, storing, and selling private audio conversations behind our backs.
What these companies plan to do with this information is a serious, albeit vague concern on the horizon, for forward-thinking people. However, stalkers and hackers, and what they can do financially and physically with this often carelessly stored, leaked, and hacked information, is an immediate and less vague threat, which happens thousands of times per day, often unreported. This can range from blackmail ransoms for recordings of your private life, to kidnappings and worse in extreme cases. Each of which has happened to our customers, before finding us. Each of whom thought it couldn't happen to them.
We have believed since our inception in 2019 that this is something we should guard against- both in our desire to help Americans and our friends abroad remain free, and in our contempt of tech companies, hackers, and governments worldwide who believe they are entitled to your personal data and private life.
We created the Refuge Ghost (Faraday) Sleeve in 2020 to solve this problem. We, like most people operating in the modern world, don’t have the luxury of not owning a smartphone, but aimed to mitigate its side effect of being our own personal spy while it isn't being used. After creating the first camera and microphone blocking phone case the prior year, we created the first location-blocking Faraday sleeve that also includes sound blocking panels inside. Not meant to bury your phone 24/7, the Ghost Sleeve is here whenever you'd like to create a void in the invasive data gathering of your private life, or a simple break from digital life's endless noise.
Unlike low-grade, foreign-made alternatives, we’ve made ours with enhanced signal blocking, shielding higher frequency 5G that most sleeves miss- keeping users off the map in higher frequency areas. We have also proudly made ours in America from day one, with beautiful, durable American Buffalo leather, inspected all the way down to the 3.0 model’s color-matched, hand-painted edges.
From war zones to board rooms, the Refuge Ghost Sleeve is trusted by forward thinking people from all walks of life, who don’t wait until disaster to take their privacy and security seriously.
