Customer Review: Best so far
Summary: 4 Stars
I wear it working out, at work, and just pretty much all the time...so the comfort level is there. I'm a plumber and I play basketball...so it stands rugged activity without minimal impairment to mobility. I've only hand washed it so I don't know how it holds up in the wash. The screen cover doesn't scratch easily and it frames the 'pod perfectly without the stretching and strain of other products with poor 'pod-fit.
The one thing I would change about it is that the smallest size the armband can squeeze is my upper forearm, where I would like the alternative of having it slide to my wrist for more convenient eye-level for screen navigation.
I've had several other armband cases that were pretty much garbage so I think this is the best so far particularly as the price is lower than other less-quality cases.
Customer Review: Great for nano! (but little else!)
Summary: 4 Stars
I love my nano. I love to run with music. That said, I felt I needed this band so i could have both when running. I used to carry a different type of armband for my mp3 player, a universal which offered more space for license, money, etc. The nano neoprene band holds one thing: the Nano. That's it. there's barely even space for headphone wire slack, so I wrap it (the slack) in my sports bra strap (this might obviously a hinderance for men...). I have found that i can insert 4 quarters into the slot where I suppose a housekey would go, so that's just for emergencies. But seriously, this thing is tight on space. Otherwise, I absolutely love it. It stays in place, it's got one-piece construction, the velcro isn't the type that will wear out quickly, and it is hand washable and dries quickly. I'd recommend this to friends.Customer Review: Very well made...but it doesn't fit my arm...
Summary: 3 Stars
The construction on the armband is top notch. The neoprene is comfortable and it is easy to slip your nano in and out, while being quite snug, so you don't have to worry about it slipping out accidentally. The only problem is that it doesn't fit my arm, really. I don't think that my arms are bigger than a normal guys, so I would recommend this product for women, and runners, who are normally pretty slim. If you have average sized arms for a man, it may be extremely snug, or may not fit at all. Kind of wished I would have know there was a size limit before I bought it and opened it, so hopefully this will help those of you who are thinking of purchasing it. That was the only drawback that I could see, but it is a big drawback, it if prevents you from using the product.Customer Review: Outstanding Product

My new Belkin Armband is amazing. This is the second one I have purchased from Belkin. My wife has one too. We use ours primarily for working out with and at times we uses them on our motorcycles, snowboards, and sometimes even snowshoeing. This Armband is amazing. Great fit. I will say that it's a bit tough to put on though. At least while it's new. I have only used mine four or five times now. The plastic on the front is very functional as I found my older Armband was not. You can use your finger up against the dial of the Ipod through the armband and it functions almost perfectly. I was very impressed about that. Anyway folks go buy one. This product is fabulous..... Price is really affordable too, for under thirty bucks delivered to the door. Buy one...Belkin you rock.Customer Review: Good armband!

Kinda took a gamble when I bought this one. This is my first armband. I bought Nike+ and wasn't sure if this would work with it. It's actually kinda like the "incase" armband only this was MUCH cheaper when I bought it ($8.99). It has two holes at the bottom (one for the hold switch, one for the headphones) and a full size slot at the top. Simple solution to use Nike+: use the armband upside down so the full size slot where you slide the iPod through is on the bottom. I haven't actually used it yet but was fiddling around with it and the iPod still seems really snug and secure (no chance of falling out through the bottom while running with it).
Also the controls work great! You do have to press a little harder than usual of course!
