Armband for phone recommendations please :)

[Charlottetrip]

I know I can just google and answers will come up.

But just wondering what you guys have or best place to get one?

I have an iPhone 7, my main problem for the ones I've seen no hole for my headphones. My headphone port is the same as where I also charge my phone. And holes always seem to be at side.

Any help would be great!

Thanks

I got a little bag that clips around the waist that I find really good - was a tenner at a running shop in my town. There's an earphone hole and room for my key & some tissues (always need one halfway round for some reason!)

My nose always runs and I need to take tissues too!

I will check them out thanks.

I've had a few different running armbands, and my advice is to go and try or see them first. The reason I say this is because I have bought a couple from the internet and been disappointed with them. I have chubby arms and I like my armbands to be made of soft and flexible material so they don't rub, especially on longer runs. Some of them are made of quite stiff material and especially with the larger phones there's not much flex there.

I know what you're saying about the headphones, as well. Also check for waterproofing - none of them are exactly waterproof but because the iPhone 7 doesn't work through a plastic screen protector, some of them have a hole for the id thingy. If it rains, this may be a bad idea...

I use a waistband, I found particularly on longer runs the weight of the phone on one arm got a bit annoying, also the cable for headphones flailing about. I now wear the waistband and run the cable up the inside of my shirt up my back out of the way.

Got a cheap waistband from sportsdirect.

I use a brilliant waistband I got from TK Max!! Was about £6 and is adjustable and comfy. I'm plus-size and have no issues but it would also fit skinny. Really good stretchy material as well as an adjuster.

Thanks guys!
