From the brand
Inspiration to Innovation
-
How did we get our start?
While hiking and exploring the Tetons in 1983, Tune Belt's founder, an avid runner and outdoorsman, was inspired to solve a need he himself had been facing. How to bring along music wherever he wandered? Lightweight, stretchy and durable neoprene was an ideal material, and Tune Belt sport belts were imagined, designed and manufactured.
What makes our products unique?
Using premium quality materials and with nearly 40 years of manufacturing experience, our products are unmatched in comfort, fit, durability and performance.

The neoprene strap is super comfortable and it keeps the pump tubing from getting snagged on anything. I'm able to read the screen clearly & interact with the buttons through the plastic easily, and even use it as a mini flashlight if I need to get up in the middle of the night.
I had to replace this every 5 years or so as the plastic screen starts to crack at the bottom (see picture) and after year 4, the band starts to lose some of its elasticity.
At this price, it's a super comfortable solution and I'm actually buying another 2 or 3 to last me another decade.

Comfortable, secure, built to last.
However, the armband has barely met even my basic expectations. I wanted something that would encase my entire iPod classic and granted I have an older model of the classic, I don't even see how I a touch or something bigger or wider than a classic iPod could fit in this thing. It does stretch out to "fit" the iPod. My classic is completely encased with a little bit of wiggle room but that is really only due to the fact that it feels like it's about to pop out.
Also, I don't know how the newer iPod classic models are made, but my 160GB classic iPod has the headphone jack and hold button on the top while the charging plug is on the bottom. This band has the holes for headphones and anything accessible upside down. You put the iPod completely in through the bottom of the band where it opens up all the way so if you want to have it facing the proper way, the entry hole for the iPod in the armband ends up facing the floor. My concern is that when I am doing high intensity exercise my iPod will slip out. And really, my iPod is far more important than this armband that costs about 15 bucks but really worth about 10.
The fit of the band is slightly cumbersome as well. Adjusting the band is about as easy can get but if you've got muscular arms or really small arms, you are out of luck. You can fashion something for yourself to make due with the lack of extra length adjustment by either adding more fabric if you want to fit a bigger arm or you can tighten it to its tightest possible if you've got an especially small arm...but I feel that there are other bands that can probably save you this trouble.
Some pros are the material it's made out of. It feels comfortable enough and since I am going to wear it upside down with the headphone jack facing the floor, I almost have faith that this will perform like I want it to. And by that I mean I hope it lets me listen to music while I'm having fun sweating it out and my iPod doesn't fly off my arm and hit my shins. I am a somewhat profuse sweater so if this doesn't completely absorb everything I'm going to give it then this band might deserve a full three stars. In my opinion, this band should get a 2.5 star rating, but I don't have that option. This is mediocre at best. It's more effort for me to return than to keep it. Last pro would be that the plastic screen does actually change the controls. This is an alright feature as I'm glad I will only have to just change songs by clicking "next" or "back" on my iPod. Dealing with the scroll through this plastic screen is already more trouble than that is worth. Good thing for Sennheiser headphones that have the volume control option.
Sorry for the lengthy review, but if I had the option of something better than this I would go for that. If it wasn't more trouble to return this item, then I would do that. I believe there are better products available for an iPod classic as this certainly isn't it. If you're not going to be doing heavy exercise (high intensity interval training, running in the hot outdoors, sports, anything that would make you sweat and not glisten) then this might be the armband for you!
" We are disappointed with your rating and are hoping that you will aide us in our continued growth by reconsidering your rating comment left on Amazon’s Feedback Rating System .A rating of "3" is negative when viewed by other potential customers and by Amazon. I am not sure why you rated Tune Belt negative when you have not had a chance to use it. Perhaps you were confused with the rating scale. If you were satisfied with your purchase, can you please remove your rating because it is not possible to change a rating but only remove it. If you are not sure how to remove your rating, let us know and we will forward the instructions."
So I decided to go through my gear and really try this guy this out ( on the tread mill of course )
Unfortunately I never made it that far. I have a 160 GB IPod Classic and it was work out just trying to get it to fit inside the protective sleeve. I thought for sure I was going to rip it.
After I finally got it in there.. that bad boy was crammed. the plastic protective window sat oddly on the bulkiness of my pod.
Then i noticed that the headphone jack outlet along with the slits at the top and the bottom would never protect this from the elements of nature. It almost seems as if this design of the belt was put on upside down.. not sure what that is all about.
THIS PRODUCT IS NOT INTENDED TO BE USED WITH THE IPOD CLASSIC!
it is basically useless to me now.
Thank You Tune Belt, Inc for forcing me to delete my original rating of neutral and really inspect the product for a new rating.
