Rating just for trying to order this!

ok so i was also really confused on how to order the size i want. Scroll the article down until you get to the comparison info and there should be some, but there is a mention of size. I went to the table and ordered a small one. I'm sending it back for Wednesday. I wear small leggings and usually 6 pairs of pants maybe 8. Jeans I'm 29 if that helps. I could wear a small one, but felt like once I put my phone and maybe my passport in it (I liked the idea of using it for travel) I just didn't…

Pros
  • The Nathan Zipster running belt is a great investment for outdoor enthusiasts.
Cons
  • Pockets can be difficult to access when sitting or kneeling.

Comfortable and beautiful

It fits comfortably and unobtrusively with everything I need to walk or run. Can I carry instead of a handbag for trips to the zoo etc. My Pixel 3 keeps up well when running; it doesn't pinch or wobble, and I hardly know it's there. After one wash (machine wash, dryer) it is like new. Very, very satisfied.

Pros
  • love it
Cons
  • Much less than I could have imagined. I couldn't even put my phone in it.

Fantastic item if you don't want to carry a bag

I just love the practicality and freedom of this belt. You can carry items such as cell phone, cash ID cards, etc., they are invisible and very convenient.

Pros
  • The belt design is sleek and sporty.
Cons
  • The material of the belt can be uncomfortable or cause allergies.

The best running belt I've tried

This is by far my favorite running belt and I've tried many: Flip Belt, Spibelt, Amphibelt, etc. Here's why I think it's the best: 1) The material doesn't chafe like some others (the Flip Belt gives me one bad time). The nylon and spandex blend is very soft against the skin and is non-irritating. 2) Has 2 zippers. Zippers are a must for me because when I'm running fast, it's not enough to hold an expensive phone to my body. My phone fell out when using a different strap which only relied on…

Pros
  • The pockets on the belt are large enough for keys, cards and money.
Cons
  • The Nathan Zipster running belt may cause objects to bounce or jerk during activity.

Convenient for travel and training

18 hours journey with 3 flights and corresponding transfers! The belt was used to store money. No sweat, very comfortable. I didn't feel like I was there! Love it! The material is soft and stretchy.

Pros
  • LOVE this belt. Actually we use it to hold glucose monitor. Bags are perfect. A lightweight. Breathing.
Cons
  • The Nathan Zipster Running Belt may slip or move during activity.

Too heavy to wear - my new review

You should wear it over your head or pull it down your hips. In any case, it's too heavy to put on and I expect it will eventually stretch and become too loose to wear. I returned it for a refund.

Pros
  • Works great, especially with new phones. Love it.
Cons
  • I would love it but my phone doesn't fit in my pocket. I couldn't walk him or travel with him like I had planned.

Works well but Flipbelt is better

As a regular user of folding straps, I picked up this strap because it had two pockets. It works great, just a little less stable than my trusted flip straps.

Pros
  • The belt is easy to clean and maintain
Cons
  • The belt may loosen or tighten during activity, causing discomfort or distraction.

iPhone 11 Pro barely fits with case

Works as it should. I haven't washed it yet, but everything seems fine. The material is nice, the zipper works well and looks high quality. Fully dressed and everything is as it should be. My phone (iPhone 11 Pro) barely fit in the zipped case and was difficult to get in and out of, so I used a folded case and it felt solid in there. But I love that I can put my phone in my pocket when I feel like I need it on particularly intense runs. That's really all I need. In any case, I don't dig for my…

Pros
  • This is a great alternative to bulky backpacks or travel bags.
Cons
  • The Nathan Zipster running belt may cause discomfort or chafing on clothing or underwear.

Comfortable and seems well built

Got a color that I wouldn't normally buy due to the lower price. Very comfortable when running but absorbs sweat. I also intend to use it as a money belt when traveling.

Pros
  • Ideal for people who love outdoor sports
Cons
  • Pockets can be difficult to access or closed during physical activity.

Like - my new review

It fits perfectly even better than expected. You can't walk without it. It goes perfectly with everything and is handy for dinner.

Pros
  • Like: -marble color -band width -fit -case like -not machine washable will shrink
Cons
  • The tiny iPhone 11 doesn't fit, not even close! Terrible design and misleading advertising

Holds everything you need

I love this belt! It doesn't move when I run and can hold all my goodies! Definitely the phone would not fit and in addition. My iPhone X fits right in.

Pros
  • The Nathan Zipster running belt is affordable and won't break the bank.
Cons
  • The Nathan Zipster running belt may not hold different types of clothing or outerwear.

Stay in place!: my review

STAYS DURING THE ENTIRE RUN! Soft, stretchy, fits my Galaxy S9. I have to remove the case and worry about the zipper rubbing the back of my phone, but I haven't noticed any scratches. It's a little difficult to get your phone out of the zip pocket while running, but not critical. It says it's weather resistant, but sweat definitely gets in the pockets. I wear size 0, xs fits perfectly. Overall, it fits my needs perfectly!

Pros
  • The Nathan Zipster Running Belt is lightweight and won't weigh you down while you run.
Cons
  • Bags may not be waterproof, which can damage items in rain or other moisture.

Great product for small phones

I love Nathan products and chose this product because they made it. I have a Google Pixel 3a XL phone that barely fits when shaken hard. I made the hole wider and it fits a little better. I like it, apart from the size of the phone pocket.

Pros
  • Great!! Great fit, true to size.
Cons
  • The belt can cut into the skin and cause discomfort.

Large accessible pockets

I'm happy to report that my Pixel 3XL fits easily in a zip pocket. For easy access and can be squeezed into a zip pocket if you really want it, but it's cramped. The zip pockets are lined to limit stretch but I suspect that makes them waterproof.

Pros
  • I like this
Cons
  • Pockets must not be lined, which may damage phone screens or other items.

Not suitable for iPhone XS

I tried 2 Nathan belts. Both say they have large sized phones. I have an iPhone XS and I can't install it in any of them. You have to work hard to get there, but it's hard to get out.

Pros
  • Product of good quality and good souler.
Cons
  • The Nathan Zipster running belt can be heavy and bulky.

neat as a bug best in my rating

This is a replacement for another similar one whose zipper broke. The woman loves him, yes, she prefers him to the other she had. Don't jump, put your phone and keys there while jogging.

Pros
  • I use it for my walks. It's easy to hold keys and ID, and my large phone easily fits in the adjustable compartment.
Cons
  • The Nathan Zipster running belt may not be breathable or able to absorb sweat effectively.

Convenient to hold your phone and keys while walking or running

I find this strap to be the easiest way to hold a large phone and keys while walking or running. My Pixel 4XL fits perfectly in flap pockets and doesn't move. Does not fit in zip pockets. I've found the phone pulls my pants or shorts down when I walk, so this is a great solution. I don't like bandages when running because my phone is too big.

Pros
  • It's a great way to stay organized while exercising.
Cons
  • Pockets may not be deep enough to securely hold items during activity.

Measure twice, buy once.

Ideal for training and walking the dog. I can put away all those clunky dog bag holders, treat holders, key holders and blah blah. You can place your phone on the front and close the treat, or just tuck it in the right-hand flap for quick access. Keys are in the back zip, so they're damn safe, and the phone is in the front zip with the pocket rolled up on the side, with a face mask that doesn't look like a bulky donut. Everything fits snugly and doesn't bounce. NOTE MEASUREMENTS must be taken…

Pros
  • I like this! I would recommend getting a size S, I'm between 6 and 8 but it can lose strength over time.
Cons
  • Pockets may not be large enough for large smartphones.

Works perfectly! - my new rating

The product corresponds to the description and works great. Holds my iPhone, iPod Air charger, keys and more. Easy to put on and take off, comfortable to wear. Highly recommended.

Pros
  • Fits perfectly - big enough for my phone - zipper is a bit tight but works
Cons
  • The Nathan Zipster Running Belt can cause chafing and irritation.

Great for jogging: my rating

I lost my first one on a be so I bought a second one! Stretches to fit anything, phone, keys, money, headphones, gel time, etc.

Pros
  • Designed specifically for runners, the belt is ideal for both men and women.
Cons
  • Pockets may not be compatible with certain types of smartphones or devices.
