I'm not sure if I'm calling it by the right name, but does anyone have a 'favorite' armband to hold their I-Phone on their arm while running? I have an I-Phone 4S if that makes a difference...I was looking for one for when I start running outside vs. on the treadmill.

    I use the Belkin one. They're like 25 bucks at Target or Wal Mart. It's for a 5, but I stuffed my 4S in there just fine. Plus when I upgrade later this year I can still use it. Works fine for me.

    I have an Armpocket for my iPhone. It is pretty rad.

    I got the Nike arm sleeve holder (the armbands were too lose to play basketball with) and I love it for everything from runs to cross training... your forearm does get a bit sweaty, but I don't think it's a deterrence...

    I have a New Balance one I bought on Living Social. It worked great until I lost weight and now my arms are too small to hold it up. I would prefer one without velcro....on the hunt. Thanks for posting this.

    Man, you guys are fancy. I use an old tube sock that i cut the bottom off of. Just roll it up my arm, tuck the ipod underneath and roll the bottom under the ipod. works like a charm and only cost a dollar

    Check TJ Maxx or Marshalls by the checkout counter or men section. They always have tons of accessories for iphone and prices are great.

    I think mine is an Addias one - I picked it up in a rush pre-workout after I got my iPod - the one before it was a knackered, battered old thing that I didn't really care much for so used to shove it down my bra - classy, eh?

    It's fairly decent, but if I'm honest I don't do much running (yet) - I'll probably upgrade when I start.

    iPhone wrist bands are pretty overpriced in most stores. I don't like advertising, but you can generally get a neoprene one from monoprice.com for 3-6 bucks (4, 4s and 5).

    My issue with these has been finding one that fits my arm. I don't think they are particularly big but nothing at the Apple store (when I had an iPhone) fit me without constricting my arm like I was getting ready to shoot up heroin.
