Comfortable and safe

Perfect fit, very comfortable. Hold your phone very securely without bouncing on your hand while running. Love the fact that you can trim the strap to get a snug fit without a lot of extra strap. It fits a variety of hand sizes, from smoking pipes to pipe cleaners! It seems to be holding up well so far. I wash it off with warm water after a sweaty run and it doesn't smell.

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Excellent bandage and nothing dangling.

I love wearing this headband while running. My iPhone 5s is quite big and heavy, I'm glad the bandage fits snugly against the skin and doesn't sag. I also like that the bracelet is adjustable and has a very long strap that adjusts to any size. Another great feature is that you can lock the clip so the phone doesn't accidentally fall out.

Pros
  • Only positive
Cons
  • Little things

Bulky but handy for pouches, holsters and cases

Bought to keep my iPhone 5s running with Fr rescue case. Holds the phone well, doesn't wobble. It feels good in my hand and the strap is made of comfortable neoprene. I've had it for a year now, no complaints, in excellent condition. I'm 5ft 0in and it looks a bit bulky on me but I don't care. It gets the job done and I don't have to worry about my phone falling.

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish

It's huge. on cases, holsters and cases

Huge adjustable strap. I'm a tall woman who wears a size 12/14 so I'm by no means a pixie and I had to dress the band very, very small. So there is a large additional part of the group that needs to be hidden. I don't know what I'll do if my hands actually get smaller. This works very well. It holds the rescue case perfectly and the phone is easy to put in and take out with one hand. It's comfortable and breathable (doesn't collect a drop of sweat underneath when you exercise).

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Stay in place, easy access to your phone.

Not a bad bandage. Unlike others I've used, it doesn't open halfway, and the Lifeproof case clip makes removing and installing the phone very convenient. I don't know about other runners but I hate taking my headband off to check things on my phone (heart rate, mileage, time etc) so the lockable clip was a huge benefit for me. My only complaint was with the sizing method, but that's really a minor thing. At least not enough to humiliate the group. Besides, it's great.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Long

Great for running! Best in armbands

I bought this for my husband's upcoming marathon so he can easily grab his phone for photos while running and he loves it. It's definitely bulky, but I plan on ordering one for myself as well because it's super easy to use with a protective case AND because the bracelet stays handcuffed. I don't know how to explain it, but my current running headband just sticks to everything without a belt so it comes off easily. The rescue parachute has straps to facilitate the use of the strap when…

The headband is strong but has some design flaws

Pros: -good construction -strong hold -positive clip in action -reflective elements. and face down. Cons: - The bracelet is NOT flexible. It doesn't work very well in areas where arm muscles tend to expand and contract. Other bracelet systems that flex and stretch stay in place better. The bandage remains like a tight tourniquet. I want it to stretch and flex with the upper biceps for people with athletic arms. - The bandage must be cut with scissors (cuts with scissors are irreversible). I…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Quick guide

Yes Yes Yes. on Headbands

This headband is a real find. For a month and a half of use there were no complaints about it. Although they look bulky in photos online (compared to other fitness bands), the materials are very light and breathable, so much so that during my long runs I honestly forget they even exist. My phone has never fallen out of the case, and yet it's so easy to take it out and unlock it when I need to switch music, check an app that's running, or whatever. And I don't even have to stop running to do it!

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • It's OK

Great if you don't want to use headphones

Well made product and fits nicely in the LifeProof Nuud case. BUT, the corner of the first aid case covers the headphone jack of the iPhone placed in the LifeProof Nuud case, making it very difficult to plug in the headphone jack. If you want to use the armband to listen through your headphones while wearing the armband (which is why I bought it, for example), you'll need to pull the latch tab to access the Nuud headphone jack and plug your phone into the too fit case. This will compress the…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other models
