Speck Armband Case with for iPod classic 4G (Clear)

 (10 customer reviews)

I bought this armband a month back have used it regularly for running. I have no complains. I like its looks very much as it lets the iPod stand out and be visible rather than hiding the iPod behind a black case.

When I bought I was concerned that the iPod might slip from the sleeve. I use it with the skin that comes with it which is pretty cool as it is a translucent white skin on iPod. It feels sturdy and there is no sign of slippage.

Fits comfortably around the arm and the there is no problem sweat getting on the iPod.

I would highly recommend it to anyone.

I purchased this armband over two months ago, and so-far it's lived up to my expectations. I definitely beat the hell out of my ipod and use it for everything: trail mountain biking, climbing, trail running, the gym, etc. The material has proved to be incredibly durable, without any irritation, and the protective silicon case for the ipod holds it firmly in place. You need not worry if you are one of those profuse sweaters, the protective casing keeps the ipod water resistant against your arm. Even my girlfriend can wear the arm band, and her arms are pretty slim; i'd go out on a limb and say it fits all sizes. Regarding those complaining of freezing, i think your complaints need to be directed towards either apple or yourself. I mean seriously, how would a plastic and rubber armband effect your ipod's functioning? Needless to say, i've never exeperienced something of that nature. I hope this helps...

After paying $40 for this item (I purchased it at CompUsa since it was more expensive when I first saw it on Amazon.com), I figured it would be worth the money since it came with the multi-use plastic sleeve and the armband. Overall, the idea is good and the sleeve comes in handy even when you aren't using the armband; however, the band absorbs sweat while you are exercising and that is an uncomfortable feeling. In addition, sweat accumulates inside the band where the plastic casing attached to the armband sits against the arm. I considered returning the item; however, I realized that if I wanted to buy another plastic sleeve that I could use all the time (in the car, at home, etc.) as well as another exercise armband, I would end up spending more money.
