Review on ๐Ÿƒ Nathan Shadow Pak in Berry: Your Essential Running Companion by Dana Mahendra

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent running belt, just not 100% perfect for me. Fits iPhone 5.

This strap fits me, it's just not perfect for me. Overall, for the price, I'm happy with this purchase. The "berry" color is actually a light magenta/pink, which is normal (just thought I'd mention the color since monitors vary). I wear size 8 and the strap fits me easily with a small extra strap. Speaking of straps, although they're not just elastic, they do stretch a bit, which greatly increases the comfort of this strap. I was disappointed with the "reflective detailing" as this is the only reflective detail I can find on the belt, which is a single sewn-on reflective patch measuring less than 1" x 2". I was hoping for something more, at least something that would get me thinking both front and back. An "ID card" is a small piece of paper that can be slipped into and out of a small pocket on a belt. While I assume it will work, it's not very big at all and I really wonder if EMS will even notice it. I also wonder if I'm sweating enough when that little piece of paper ends up falling apart. The pouch on this thing is tiny. It does stretch a bit though, so I was able to easily squeeze my iPhone 5 with the thin case and headphones attached. It actually turns out that I can close it so that my headphone cord comes out really nice, so I'm happy with that. You could probably fit a couple of power adapters plus keys (the little ring) in your pocket if you weren't going to slide it into the iPhone. Plus, it's a bonus, the bag closes. In fact, there is absolutely no Velcro on this strap for it to snag on or rub against things. Belt clip made of durable plastic, easy to release with one hand. kind of a vapor barrier, so if you sweat enough or it rains, everything gets wet there.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • I have no particular complaints about it, everything is fine
