Customer Review: Does what I expected and required of it.
Summary: 5 Stars
People seem to be very critical of these armbands. I did quite a bit of research with product reviews both professional and amateur before finally deciding to purchase this product for my wife for her to use with her iPod classic 80GB at the gym.
The Action Jacket accomplishes everything that was required -- to hold the ipod while working out, allow access to easily control the ipod and also allow to be plugged into a dock connector without removal from the case. The additional requirements were that it was to be comfortable and last a reasonable amount of time.
The iPod is easily placed-into and removed from the action jacket. It's secured by a simple velcro tag at the top. As a sign of good design, the soft part of the velcro is the part that touches the skin, so you don't have to worry about chaffing when running on the treadmill or something like that.
In addition, the bottom of the jacket has a reinforced opening for the ipod dock connector. It may require some finger nails to get at the buttons on the dock connector when removing it, however. But it's hardly an issue.
The jacket secures itself in one of two ways -- an elastic strap that runs through nylon "buckles" on the back of the jacket which secures via velcro to your arm (one size fits all) or a plastic belt clip that secures via a plastic nubbin on the back of the jacket. To use the belt clip, you have to remove the elastic strap as it covers the plastic nubbin which the clip attaches to. The strap-covered-nubbin is actually an important thing as well, as it protects your arm from the nubbin itself when using the elastic strap.
The jacket itself allows you to easily access the iPod control wheel. It's an open hole so there's no need to worry about that. I'm not sure what other reviewers are talking about a piece of plastic. There is no plastic there (maybe on an older version). If there was, you could easily remove it with a pair of scissors.
That's about it. If you're looking for something to provide protection for your iPod, this may not be the optimal solution though there is a decent amount of padding in the jacket.
People seem to expect too much when it comes to these jackets. I find the Action Jacket meets all expectations.
