 Solid Product with very little room for improvement Jan 02, 2008
By A. Archie
"I'm kinda a big deal"
Updating review. 2/7/08.
Downgrading my recommendation to: "Do not buy". After a little while of having this product it is now broken. The metal clip that allows you to adjust the straps broke yesterday while I was working out. Perhaps this is an isolated incident, however with the other potential drawbacks mentioned below, I simply wouldn't chance it if I were you.
-----------------------------------
I strongly recommend this product if you have a ipod classic that you would like to workout with. The quality is excellent and it has held up very well in the past couple months that I've used it. (I workout roughly 4/5 days per week).
Things I really like:
-Very durable
-Sexy design
-Dries Quickly (It gets very sweaty during my workouts)
-Great Price
I only have one complaint. The plastic face on the front does not easily allow manipulation of the scroll wheel to adjust volume or browse the device. This means you must take the ipod out of the case if you would like to quickly find your music or make adjustments. Sometimes this can be a bit fustrating. I call this a minor complaint because I usually set my volume and/or playlist prior to beginning a workout so this is not too much of an inconvenience.
Also, if the armband provided a way to access the port on the bottom of the device then I probably would never take it out. That would make this product an absolute best buy. (I don't think that is the intent of this product so I will not list that as a complaint)
All in all it is a great product.

 OK But needs and Update Feb 20, 2008
By C. Robyn
Fits well, stretches well but you can't change any music when it is inserted into the sleeve. That should change. I ended up cutting a hole so I could access the menu buttons on the iPod to compensate.
Little pricey considering I have to take the iPod out to select different music.

Durable but no opening for USB connector Jan 19, 2008
By L. Okeke
"From CA to MD"
Product is nice and durable. At the meatiest part, my arm is 13" around and the armband fit just fine. It's not the easiest mechanism to tighten, but once you get it as tight as you'd like, it stays on your arm rather nicely (especially through the sweating). HOWEVER this particular armband does not have an opening for the USB connector so you have to take your ipod out of the armband every time you connect it to your computer (this is rather annoying as my old armband had the bottom cut out).

 Great Fit for original ipods! Dec 16, 2008
By Francis A. M. White III
"tank"
I have the ipod that first came out and it fits great in the sleeve, I was a little worried, thinking that it would only fit the new ipods cuz they are slimmer. Great product!

 Armband good only for jogging May 18, 2009
By Timothy Irvine
"T.S.E. Irvine"
This armband gives a very snug fit for my iPod, meaning it is very form-fitting to the iPod and very snug on my bicep. No wiggling here. The case is lightweight and water-resistant and has a place to keep your key, VERY handy for jogging.
However, the strap's velcro was low quality and started peeling, making tightening it increasingly difficult. Furthermore, the plastic cover was too thick for my clickwheel to function. I ended up debating and the only way I could get the wheel to work was to cut a circle in the plastic (thus negating the benefit of water resistance). I ultimately also cut a slit in the bottom to access the data cable slot.
The armband is permanently attached to the iPod holder, too, so once it's off your arm you either have a very large and awkwardly-shaped item to carry around or you have to wrestle the iPod out of the very snug neoprene holder.
I recommend it only for use when jogging.
