Unfortunately this was a bit big for me (human error I didn’t read the size) but it does fit the husband.
Just wrap round ur waist and has a zip fastening on the size – I would advice measuring before ordering.
It does work well tho – mesh material so doesn’t get sweaty like others.
This running belt is not very large but still able to accommodate my phone. It is adjustable and should be able to fit most people. The material is quite thin, but so far I haven’t had any issues with the running belt.
I use mine cross-body rather than around the waist and I’m happy with it.
Holds my items neatly and they’re easily accessible if needed.
Can’t hold a water bottle unless it’s a really small one but at that point you might as well just stop by a shop , get a can of water with electrolytes , drink it and be on your way.
If you need more space, I suggest looking into some of the hip bags used by motorcyclists or cyclists. I use one when i’m unsure if it’ll rain as I have over-the-ear headphones that are not waterproof so I pop them in if I get caught by rain. Couldn’t do that with this belt as it’s not designed for it.
Good running belt, in the process of training for a marathon, have been using the belt for long runs, you can easily fit your phone in the front pocket that has a zip and it is waterproof, you can add some gels and a little flexible bottle to the others pockets. Good material, easy to wash and dry. Very comfortable to wear and you can adjust with a velcro pad the perfect size for you.
I’ve used this for a couple of runs of various lengths so far and am very impressed at the comfort and adjustability of this belt, as well as the extra carrying capacity (my current one can just about manage a phone and keys) and ease of getting water and gels in and out of the pockets.
There is a rear zipped pocket that’s large enough for a moderately-sized smartphone (I suspect it won’t fit some of the very large ones!), with another rear ‘loose’ pocket on the outside. There are also three mesh pockets around the belt, one smaller (that I use for my keys), and two larger ones that will hold a small (250ml) flexible water bottle, or a couple of energy gels. Usefully, the two larger pockets have a pull-tab for ease of access. However, you must remember that the pockets only hold their contents properly when the belt is ON you, using the tension around your waist to hold the pockets closed as the pockets have open top sections.
Getting the belt on and adjusted is fairly simple – it uses a tenacious hook-and-loop tab on the end of the belt to grip another section on the other end. The belt at this point is about 3″ wide. It’s important though to put the belt on with nothing in the mesh pockets (I pop my phone in the rear zipped pocket first) so you get the tension around your waist right – if you put e.g. full water pouches etc. in the pockets first, as you take them out to use them, the belt tension could be too loose; instead, load the pockets up *after* you put it on. Additionally, I have a 32″ waist and am almost at the smallest the belt will go (there are about 2-fingers-worth of adjustment left).
And one initial issue was that I thought the hook-and-loop wasn’t working until I realised there was a small fabric patch on the hook section that needed removing before use (I suspect it’s there to stop it snagging on the belt during packing and unpacking) – once I’d removed that I was pleasantly surprised at how grippy the connection was when the belt is on.
This is a thin and lightweight running/exercise belt with enough room for a phone, keys, credit card, gel supplements and a bit of cash.
The belt is black and translucent so others can see what you are carrying which might be a slight drawback which is why I dropped a star in the rating.
The zippers keep everything nice and secure when running.
The mesh design make this belt super breathable and eliminates that soggy band you get at the end of an exercise session.
Make sure you get the right size or if unsure get the one size adjustable. I got the large and the fit was quite good.
Verdict: Nice running/exercise belt for a reasonable price.
I found the fit on the unadjustable to be ideal, so provided you choose the correct size you should be fine. Secured with a sturdy zip it’s tight, but reassuringly so rather than uncomfortably. I was slightly concerned that the pockets don’t have secure closures, but in practice this isn’t an issue as the contents are held tightly against the body. I carry my phone in the main front pocket, two energy gels in the main rear pocket, and a key in one of the small side pockets, all feeling totally fixed and secure, zero bouncing. The items are easily accessible too while moving, with small pull tabs to ‘open’ the pockets. It’s just very well designed.
I did over an hour’s running (10+k) with this belt at the weekend and didn’t feel a thing.
This is a great choice over the more expensive and well-known alternative.
This is pretty much as described.
Light weight with breathable mesh. Lots of pockets which are pretty secure when the belt is on and stretched.
The zip is ok but it does feel pretty tight. I’m about a 33/34 inch waist and the medium is supposed to fit 31 to 36 inch. This was absolutely as tight as I would want it especially after adding items. Maybe they should add more sized or possibly I should have gotten the adjustable version.
When on stuff doesn’t feel like it will fall out even when running, just be careful when taking it off as heavier items like phones might drop out when the belt is loose.
At the time of review this was about 10.50 with a voucher for which I’d give it 4 stars. At full price I’d start to think about dropping another star.
The running belt arrived in a branded ziplock bag with information regarding the belt on the outside.
My first impressions of the belt as I checked it over was that is felt light and soft, the materials used are good quality, generally overall it is well made, there are many features on the belt that include a waterproof front zipped pocket, mesh side storage pockets with attachment loops, front pouch for quick access.
The adjustable variant has a strong velcro grip, there is a safety strip that must be removed to reveal the velcro underneath.
Overall, this is a nice running belt, breathable and light, reflective detailing, zipped pocket is large enough to fit my iPhone 14pro inside comfortably, keys can be clipped in the side pouches along with a few energy gels, a small collapsable water bottle can fit in the front pouch if required, thank you.
I’m training for a half marathon and I’m now reaching the stage where I’m running for over an hour and a half, so it’s time to start bringing along some nutrition. This belt should see me through my training without me needing to buy a vest.
The belt has a zippable waterproof pocket on the front, which is big enough for a phone. There are other mesh pockets on the front and back, including one with a key clip – very useful if your shorts don’t have a zippable pocket. The mesh pockets are big enough for gels and possibly a flexible water bottle, though I haven’t tried the latter yet.
The belt is secured with a velcro pad and is easy to put on and adjust. It’s pretty lightweight and I found it comfortable in motion, though it will get quite warm on hotter days as it’s black and, though there are ventilation holes, it does add another layer of insulation.
I also noticed that it makes a ‘ripping’ noise at times. I imagine this is the velcro shift as the belt moves up and down. It isn’t too annoying, but I hope the velcro will stand up to prolonged use.
Recommended overall if you need an adjustable belt with a bunch of pockets to stash stuff.
Mehr als genug Taschen, die gro genug sind fr Schlssel und Handy. Der breite Gurt passt sich sehr gut an den Krper, ohne zu scheuern. Man kann ihn auch sehr gut einstellen, so dass er nicht verrutscht oder die Atmung einschrnkt!
At the time of this review you can get this running belt for around 10:50 with an Amazon discount voucher.
This running belt is an unusual design.
My previous experience with a running belt, is this one long piece of material that falls over itself, the loss of pocket sewing into it on the way round. The material is very stretchy so you put it on and take it off stepping in and out of a pair of shorts or a belt.
This running belt is elasticated, but it’s made of a mesh material which is more breathable.
The mesh material is elasticated.
You put this on and take it off I use over four or 5 inches zip on the right hand side.
I only tend to take my phone with me if I’m going running just a stream music to my headphones are linked to my Garmin watch.
It was always a bit of a struggle to get it into the running belt pockets, but once in there, I did feel it was very secure.
Likewise, once inside the mesh pockets on this belt, my phone felt very secure and no risk of my phone falling out as the pockets are much deeper .
I did feel the zip mechanism was awkward and took two hands to properly zip up. Even when the first part of the zip was done up it didn’t run smoothly so I had to move the mechanism around to the front to complete the zip up.
Running with the belt and my phone inside, no problems.
I am a 34 waist and this belt was comfortable.
When I finished my run I would normally drop my running belt off like a pair of short, pick it up and get my phone out.
With this belt I unzipped it and let one end go to hold it in one hand and fish my phone out but my phone just fell out on the floor !
Luckily I had a case on my phone so it was j damaged but it could have been worse.
Overall, it does a good job.
It stores plenty of ‘stuff’ easily
It wears comfortably
Feels secure when on
Nothing fell out
Breathable
However,
Mechanism is a bit fiddly
Once unzipped, which is its advantage, the pockets are no longer under tension so the ‘stuff’ you have packed it with may fall out unless you are very careful
I was going to go three stars mainly because I/it had dropped my phone, made me think maybe 4 stars is a little generous but now that I have been taken by surprise by this belt it won’t happen again.
I hope you found the review helpful if you are looking for a running bel
I wore this belt for a 5K run on a fairly hot day. It’s an OK running belt.
I got the adjustable version which is secured by hook-and-loop making adjustment very easy and it was firmly attached. There is a zipped and waterproof section for a phone in front of which are two open pockets (by open I mean that they are not secured at the top so things could fall out if you perform somersaults or fall over!).
Around the belt are two further open pockets, one slightly wider than the other. In the smaller one is a clasp attached to a loop, where you can attach a key ring. The clasp makes it less likely you will lose your keys, but it is plastic and I am not sure how long it will last. I would also have liked the clasp to be on an elastic loop so you could stretch it out when actually using one of the keys.
The wider open pocket is big enough for a small water bottle. I have one from another running belt and was quite pleased to be able to tuck this in; it was perfectly secure and quite easy to remove for a drink.
When I got back from my run I found the belt quite damp — as I mentioned, it was a hot day! It is meant to be breathable but I think it is a bit worse than my previous belt in this respect.
I like the neatness of the belt and the fact that it has plenty of pockets. Not bad for the price but I doubt it will last for years and years.
Whilst the belt is very breathable its not very stretchy and the Medium size which is rathed up to a 36″ waist as too small for me by a few inches despite the fact im 35″ waist. It fels alot like a mesh bra.
Im also not a fan of the open pockets with no fasteners, although the tension of the belt when on should keep phones inside im not sure everything would stay inside if one were to fall over.
A minimalist belt thats very breathable however for someone it fits.
So this is super light as its made from super light see through type material.
It has lots of pockets but none of them close the belt relies on the stretch of the material to hold the item in place.
Now totally my fault I ordered the wrong size so for me I wouldn’t be confident it would stay up and things would fall out but as I say maybe as it’s too big. (My husband kindly did the video for me)
You need to make sure the zip is fully up too or it can start to undo but if pulled up properly it will stay.
This isn’t for us I’d rather the weight of a zip pocket especially if I am carrying phones and keys but it will be for someone (we are just running for us so no timings or distance recorded )
Does what it says on the tin. There are cheaper out there but not of this quality
