Where can I get little durable cases you can hang on your climbing harness?
On longer climbing sessions I like to keep my cell phone close by, but most of the time I have no backpack with me. So I would like to pack the cell phone in a little case that I can put on my climbing harness via a carabiner.
I know some case manufactures that do provide durable small cases, but none with a loop to put your carabiner through.
As it can get pretty rough in the wall, I like this box being durable since it needs to protect my stuff.
What box does work well and has proven to withstand harsh conditions?
Consider that I do not want to wear clothes with pockets.

Pelican makes small cases for electronics. There is likely something of a size to do what you want.

One possibility: Check out the home improvement store. Check the tool section. You can get all sorts of attachments for tool belts, including ones to carry things like a cell phone.
They aren't rigid. If rock climbing I'd use this and something like an Otter Case to protect the phone itself. They don't have a ring for a 'biner, but they do have a loop for belt or web sling. You may need to comb out the velcro now and then to get it to secure the flap properly.
Here's 3 from Lowes. 
Also: the phone itself should have a case or skin that is a bright colour. I read a post on a hiking forum of someone having dropped their phone on some loop trail and were asking for people to keep an eye out for it. Finding a black rectangle on a trail with lots of basalt (dark grey) rocks. I have a hot pink skin on my iPhone that has helped me find it several times.
If you don't have pockets or a backpack, how do you carry lunch, snacks, a windbreaker for when you're on belay...?
