Running BuddyFanny Packs for Women - 5.9 x 4 in, Black - Belt Bag & Running Belt for Men with Water-Resistant Magnetic Closure - Waist Pack for Running Gear & Phone Holder

Great little waist purse. I like that it has a velcro tab instead of zipper. Easier to deal with when it is under a shirt. Good size too - can carry my phone.

I am SO thrilled with my Running Buddy, as are my daughter and daughter in law, for each of whom I bought Running Buddies as gifts.I have been a runner for 38 years. For 38 years I have struggled with where to store my keys, or a little cash, or a credit card, when I run in hot weather without pockets. Fanny packs are cumbersome and bouncy and they chafe. I just can't tolerate wearing anything around my waist.For at least ten years I've struggled with how to carry my cell phone--especially my iphone 6. Arm bands are uncomfortable and hard to access if an important call or message comes in. And back in my old flip phone days, I could at least tuck my phone into a pocket. But my iphone is too big for that, and I want to attach my headphones so I can use and hear my running app. My fingers and hands have actually been more cramped and achey than my feet and back these past few years, after a long run, just from squeezing the phone! And more than once, I've dropped my phone and broken a screen.Struggle no more! My Running Buddy is exactly the right size to snugly hold my iphone 6 (in its sturdy case), my car keys and a credit card. I'm 5'5" and 115 pounds so as someone with a small frame, I especially appreciate how slim the Running Buddy is. I wear it at the small of my back and it doesn't budge when I run my usual 5-10 miles. I hardly even feel it. And it works great with headphones (just watch the video if you're not sure how).Thank you for this great product.Lisa

I opted for the horizontal design VS vertical design since I figured it would be easier to sit/bend/crouch without it bumping my leg/lap. Glad I did... I can't even feel it when I'm wearing it!Purchased the xl but found it too snug for my phone (even tho measurements said it would fit). The net/elastic pocket you use to house your phone has a zipper... and the edge of my protective rubbery case on phone kept snagging on the zipper seam edge making it difficult to pull out with ease. When I removed my rubbery case, no issue. So if you have a rubbery/grippy case (VS a smooth one that will slide easily), you may want to consider sizing up. The XXL differs in design a bit though:Returned the XL for the XXL (horizontal design) and my phone with rubbery case slipped in and out with ease perfectly....partly due to it being a bit larger but also because the XXL does not have a zippered net pouch. Worked way better for me. The larger size didn't feel any bigger or bulkier than the xl. It also differed from the XL by having a small area on bottom of net pocket for your earphone cord to go thru (which zips when not in use). It still had the additional solid pocket in both designs (to hold ID, key, etc). Both designs are great... But just worth mentioning the differences.No issue with the magnets... They provide a very secure fit that makes it stay put! Also it's barely noticeable when wearing under loose fitting top over it. Can be worn front or back depending on what tasks you're doing.Wish I had found this sooner! Highly recommend... And appreciate the thought that went into this product.

I am not a runner. I got this for work. I have the largest size and I am able to carry my large phone (a Note 9 in a big credit card holder case). I have my ID and some more cards. I like the other inside pocket to put a couple feminine hygiene products in. I am able to collect and carry various business cards and snippets I write in there as well. Its also very easy to access my phone and take it in/out as I need it throughput the day.I am on my 3rd Buddy Pouch. Each pouch I had lasted about 2 years. The magnets are very strong and eventually poke through the fabric. Eventually I get some wear and tear where my phone rubs the fabric as well. But I feel like this is all normal wear and tear and 2 years is a great life for this product. I use it every single day for 12+ hours. I love it.I also love that its not bulky. Im able to wear it without feeling like my stomach is bulging out. It also does not hinder my movement at all. I get the solid black one and it even blends into my work pants so it doesn't even look like I'm carrying anything.The reason I did not give it 5 stars has to do with the magnets. They are quite strong and they often cause the S-pen to disconnect from my phone even though the pen is still physically in the phone. The magnets interfere and my phone can't find its pen... so if i go to write a note on my phone at a time when the phone is disconnected it simply won't work. This has caused me some issues because sometimes I need to write things down quickly (carrying pen/paper is just not practical in what I do). The magnets also cause Google Pay to pop up on my phone even though its still in the pouch. Ill just be walking along and I can hear it swipe open. Im not sure how this could be fixed, though. I cant say I'd change the magnets. Theyre wonderful and keep the pouch exactly in place.
