nekFIT iPod Holder – Gloss Black
I gotta admit it does look funky. I was skeptical when I bought it. If anyone remembers the Steve Martin movie “The Jerk” you will get a laugh out of that. Being a runner I have tried many solutions, clips, arm bands, pockets, etc. I have not been happy with any of them. This device I’m happy to say works. Leaves your arms free, no wires in your way. I thought you would feel a bounce but you don’t. When you first put it on, you do feel it’s prescence on you, but that quickly goes away. I recommend it.

This product really works. I got the crystal clear one. Ever since I got it, I have been using it when I jog. Stay put and does fall off. Also, found I can use it around the house doing yard work. It really is hands free. Once I figured it out, changing music is a snap. With the different sizes included, my wife is also using it. It is definitely on my holiday gift list for my iPod family.

Jury is still out on this product overall, but it performs well.
When I first got it, it felt “weird” but worked great, and still does.
However, the system for wrangling the cord can directly effect your comfort level – unclear if this is a design flaw, or not.
That being said, this is superior BY FAR to anything made to hold an Ipod during a workout. I have tried water-proof cases, arm bands, etc. and they all either did not work, were totally uncomfortable, or did not keep sweat away from the Ipod. This invention does all of that, and no, amazingly, it does not fall off — and I do 90 minutes on an elliptical and box.

I find the cord from my ipod annoying when running and this little holder fixes the issue. However, once it’s on and going it would be a hassle to change things without stopping and taking it all off. Just make sure you have the right volume and a decent playlist before you start and you’ll be fine.
