armband for iPhone

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good armband to hold my iPhone while running? my current armband keeps dropping my phone and I'm not sure how much longer my phone will last that way.

    I got a cheap one off ebay and i use mine for rugby fitness as preseason and it holds the phone fine and has an clip button over top of the phone.

    its a great purchase, big name brands dont always work out to be the best

    I got a few off of eBay for less than $4 each and there was FREE shipping for my kids and I when we had iPods. Now we all have iPhones and they fit fine. If you do eBay and do a search for "Sport Armband Case iPod Touch" they should show up. They are black with a web-like material. (Not the leathery looking ones) Comes in all sorts of colors - mine is light pink. So far holding up really well. I walk but the kids run and it's very secure.

    I couldn't find an armband that I liked so I got a running belt. I prefer to think of it as more of a money belt that can hold my phone than a fanny-pack but it is very similar. It is a Runner World Run Lite Pack. I wear it just above my shorts and under my tee shirt. It holds my phone very securely and I don't feel it all. Keeps my pockets completely empty too because it holds some money and my keys. Might be my favorite running accessory

    This! I love my Belkin for iPhone 5 :) Not cheap (at Target was about $20), but totally worth it because it wont slip and it is comfy.
