![]() A snug fit keeps the iPod from jostling. View larger. |
The armband is made of neoprene, which provides an ultra-comfortable fit, and is hand-washable and water-resistant. A very useful feature is the integrated key pocket that secures a gym key so you don't have to worry about holding or losing it if you don't have pockets.
The iPod's beautiful glass display is fully protected by a clear screen that allows for full navigation. A Velcro closure ensures a universal fit that is secure, and quick and easy to adjust. The Sport Armband for iPod touch is backed by Belkin's Lifetime Warranty.

Useful item
Yes, like many reviews have pointed out, the armband will not fit around a large arm, so if you're planning on weightlifting, look into a belt-clip-on. One thing I've notice though that worried me a little: it soaks up sweat from your arm, through the neoprene. I've noticed a little condensation through the plastic seethrough screen, near the top slit. Nothing excessive though, and when I removed the iPod, I didn't see any sweat streaks on the metal backing. However, sweat and the salts it contains are VERY bad for any kind of electrical device.
Simple solution though...I also bought the Griffin hard-shell case

Get this also, and use it WITH the Belkin armband
When you decide to work out with the armband case, place the iPod Touch in the BACK part of the clear shell case, and insert the whole thing into the armband case,minus the front part of the shell casing (it fits quite comfortably, without ripping or tearing). This will protect it from any sweat the neoprene soaks up when you're running or working out.
In addition, the clear-shell half-casing also fills out the armband pouch, making it easier to access the touch screen of the ipod!
Then when you're done, simply remove the ipod and plastic casing from the armband, snap the front of the casing back on, and you're ready to roll!
Too fragile to hold an iTouch
It looks like a good quality stuff.
But maybe it's just me unfortunately got the only single below-average-quality one:
After my first 40minutes jogging, left lower corner broke open. Just in case my iPod will not fall out next time I jog, I superglued it.
I hope this will work as overall this stuff looks nice.
My only suggestion might be, take caution and have a superglue at hand.
iPod touch armband
This is a very helpful item, when you want to go and run, or do some exercises, but, its belt is very short, so if you have a big arm you will fill it like very tight. The company should do this item in different sizes.
