No matter what style of case you purchase it is highly recommended that you also purchase a screen protector to go with it (check to make sure your chosen case does not come with a free one as many do). Screen protectors have been designed to protect the delicate touch screen of your iPhone and are required regardless of the lifestyle that you lead. A touch screen can just as easily be broken by the keys in your bag as it can by heavy machinery on a construction site.
The selection of an iPhone case is really a personal decision that is dependent upon the stresses and strains that you are going to subject your iPhone to. For relatively benign environments a simple, well made case will suffice (although if a more rugged case suits your style then go for it!). For more stressful environments you should really invest in a sturdier case that offers more protection. In all situations it is highly recommended that you also purchase a screen protector.
