Detailed review
I bought this to use it with the nike plus system to run to get fitter and to lose weight. Having read other reviews, been warned by one of my mates who has one and also having bad experiences with the 'official' nike armbands for ipod nano I was worried that the strap would not fit round my overly chubby arms. However, I was delighted with the fit and comfort. I would give it 10/10 for this. And though hopefully for not much longer I am 23 stone so yes I do have big fat arms! The guy who said it wouldn't fit around his arm must be Arnie's training partner!!

The next feature that have found in the past to be a problem is the fit of the ipod in the case itself and how easy it is to use with plastic screen over it. Again I would say this is the best sport armband I have used for this and it works very well. I suppose ideally the end that you put it into would close up slightly more meaning it would feel a bit more secure and protected from outdoor elements - though I am happy enough with this.

I also feel the quality for the price is exceptional and as another reviewer said this could easily be £25 in apple shop/curry's etc. I feel it's so good that if and when the velcro, glue etc do wear out I would happily just buy another one and not feel hard done to.

Before you start thinking I am a Belklin employee I do have a problem with it - and it is a major one. Unless I am completely missing something here the way the headphones plug into it is not good at all. There is a slit in the bottom that is perfect if you wanted to plug in the USB cable to update/charge it etc but this is not quite wide enough for the headphones hole and there is no seperate little hole for them. You can (with a wee bit of fiddling around) make the headphones come out of that slit but then the ipod doesn't fit into case properly (and looks like the headphone socket will break as its being forced into a way that isn't natural). My current solution is to put the ipod in what is essentially the wrong way round which is far from ideal really. I may cut a little hole in the bottom but not really wanting to do that as fear this may grow larger over time.

Overall I am still happy with it as some other makes I have had have been far worse. I just wish the designers of these things would actually try it out before putting into production - such an easy thing to solve!

Great!
If you wish to use the Nike+ software on your Touch then this is an essential.
It is very well made and keeps your precious Touch safe and secure whilst out jogging.
Great price...........Highly Recommend!

good item
Purchased this item for the gym. Its ok but not easy to handwash. While using the item the ipod touch can slip out of the armband when jogging. Does not always feel very secure.
