I bought this after much research and based on other reviews i was kind of skeptical but other products didn't have much better reviews. I even checked eBay for the 5 Dollar solutions but I am glad i went with this one. The Arm Band is all Velcro and stays snug during running and workouts. The only reason i gave it a 4 instead of 5 is the Plastic Cover is not as sensitive toward the volume etc as i would have hoped but I understand it secures the IPod better.

A very sturdy band. Very satisfied with it.
The only drawback is that the face plastic makes it a little difficult to control the ipod but i would much rather deal with that than have a flimsy thin product that falls apart.
Thank you!!!

This armband was bought for a teenager running indoor track and he is very satisfied. His ipod and it's hard shell case fit in perfectly. He has access to all the controls without removing the ipod from the armband. We read all the reviews, for many styles, before purchasing; this one seems to fit the bill.

I went with this because it had full face protection and the handy little side velcro for wire management. The ipod fits loosely in it, but it will not fall out. Here is the issue: the plastic see through cover is not snug on the face of the ipod so the control wheel is hard to use. This mainly happens when I am either running or biking, the band builds up heat from my body temperature, then the plastic gets sticky. It will then stick to the ipod. So what happens is say I am scrolling through album art and stop on what I want, when I lift my finger and the plastic pulls up from the ipod since it is not a snug fit, it will scroll to another selection. Very frustrating. This happens on any sort of navigating. Say you just want to increase or decrease the volume. Well be warned after you scroll to your desired volume and lift your finger you may get a blast in the ear as it turns up or down if you are lucky. Even strapping it tighter doesn't help. I pushed on the back of it and there is still a gap between the plastic and the ipod. Stuffing something behind the ipod doesn't even help. I guess I could cut a circle so the wheel is exposed, but then that defeats the protection from the elements. I think I will try the sportsuit runabout by marware and just stitch in a little piece of velcro for wire management. My G-friend has one and doesn't have this issue when it heats up.
