Forums >Gears and Wears>Armband for iPhone 6
Topic title is pretty much self explanatory (I think, but I could be wrong). I am looking for recommendations for an armband for an iPhone 6 to carry along on runs. If anyone has suggestions besides an armband, I would love to hear those too. Thanks in advance.
Do you need to see the screen? I wear a fitletic belt that fits either the 6 or the 6+, plus there's a 2nd pocket for other stuff. I'm a big fan, but I do not need to see the screen.
MTA: they sell arm bands, but I've neither seen nor used them.
not bad for mile 25
I agree, I like the belt better than an armband. Spibelt is one; I have another brand whose name I don't remember at the moment.
I've used armbands before and now use the fitletic belt. I much prefer the belt.

I love the Sprigs one....Banjees arm band. It's a stretchy performance fabric - can't see through it but it's very light and cool. Completely different feel from any of the neoprene ones. I wash it after every run just like a cycling glove.
I picked it up at a running event but if you are in Litchfield CT you can get it locally or online as the company is nearby.
+1 on the Spybelt. It has a stretchy pocket that can hold an Iphone and keys, best of all, it doesn't shake when I run. I don't even notice it.

I see that you are not getting much arm band help. I do know people that use a running arm band, I will ask them what they use.
I also use a running belt. I bought this one from Amazon for just under $27, including shipping. I've used it for over a year and I am happy with it. It holds my iPhone well, I can connect my head phone cable in while running and I still have another pocket for keys, credit card, and other useful stuff.

I'll just give my two cents here, but I use the bodyband. Its a harness that beats using an armband it's functional, comforatable and affordable. Here is the link www.bodybandusa.com
