Customer Reviews

Great armband
I just took this armband for it's first test run when I went for a jog. Everything worked as it should, and I'm completely happy with my purchase.

The Pros:
-The gel-like skin and the armband are separate pieces. So, you can use the skin as a protector for your iPod even while you're not exercising. Plus, it makes it easy to use the iPod while jogging since you can remove and use the iPod while the band remains on your arm.

-I was a little worried that the iPod could slip out while running, but it stayed securely in place.

-I experienced no skipping whatsoever. Unless you wildly thrash your arms around while you jog, skipping shouldn't be a problem.

-The hard plastic screen protector fits right under the skin and offers great protection.

-The armband can be adjusted to any size (attaches w/ velcro)

The Cons:
-While there are openings for the earbud headphones and the "hold" switch, there's no opening in the bottom of the skin to attach the USB cord. However, the small slit (for putting the iPod in the skin) is near the bottom, so it's easy to fold the skin down while charging.

-I haven't experienced it yet, but since the armband is a velvety feeling material, I imagine that it could start to smell if used while exercising (and therefore sweating). Regular washing should prevent this though.

Overall, I'm totally satisfied and happy that I chose this armband over others.

Speck Products Armband
This is a nice product, very comfortable and useful. However, the skin that you must use to keep your Ipod in the clip is very thick and prevents you from charging, adding media or using any other carrying accessory until you remove it from this skin. If you use you Ipod for jogging or excersizing exclusively this is a very handy way to carry it.

Good Product
I've been using this band for several months now and I love it. Good quality band and the skin is thick enough to give solid protection for your ipod. You just have to make sure you snap in the ipod securely so it doesn't wiggle out, but this is easy to due because the rubber creates friction against the case so it won't slide easily. No complaints on my part.
