Perfect for iPod Touch5
I am using this case with an iPod Touch 16GB and it works great. It feels very snug and I have no worries about the iPod falling out (like when it's inverted doing bench press). The headphone jack is accessible through a hole in the bottom so you can plug/unplug your headphones easily.

The iPod still registers touch through the screen on the case so don't worry about trying to touch the screen directly (I even wear this while I mow and I wear gloves and it still registers me touching it, although I do have to add a little pressure).

The strap is about 2" wide and very comfortable (stretchy neoprene) and is secured with a 2"x2" velcro end. So far, I have not had it come undone.

Lastly, there is a 3" piece of fabric that you can wrap your headphones around (you see it running vertical to the left of the main case in the product picture). This is great to keep just the right amount of headphone cable dangling so it doesn't constantly get in the way.

All in all, this is a great armband and would definitely recommend it.

Great case for joggers with iPod Touch5
I have tried three cases. One was too small; another was too difficult to strap on. When jogging you do not want to spend time pushing and arranging the music player into the case because it is such a snug fit. And wrapping the case around your arm can't take time either. Those are the two must haves for cases. Caselogic hits both without issue whereas the other cases failed.

Also the Caselogic case is not heavy, bulky and has a simple hole at the bottom to expose the headphone jack.

One of the generic issues with an iTouch is the ability to access volume and change tracks with jogging. No solve here you have to know where the home button to access volume and track selection.

Only caveat is the screen is not crystal clear-- so when viewing the iTouch screen there is a little glare-- but who looks at the screen while jogging?

Inadequate2
I bought this case to use with my iPod touch 2G when I go running, but I'm already looking for a replacement for the following reasons:
- the transparent plastic is not clear enough and the iPod's screen is not readable unless the plastic is kept taught against it
- the wide plastic buckle the band loops through can easily get pulled sideways, making the armband uncomfortable to wear
- the pouch has no protection to insure the iPod stays in it, like velcro, a strap or an elastic band. My iPod touch almost fell out of it a few times.
- the dock connector is covered, which makes it impossible to use the Nike+ dongle with a touch 1G, or a bluetooth transmitter with the 2G

If these problems were corrected, I would give this case four stars. Until then, it's just not adequate.
