## Description

desertcart.com : Running Buddy Magnetic Pouch Beltless Running Bag No Bounce | 1 Pack | XL Size Black Pouch | Gym & Travel | Beltless Magnetic Workout Pocket Without Belt Loop : Sports & Outdoors

Review: The Best, Hands Down. - Great pouch, the only one I use. I literally use these pouches every day. They are roomy, high quality, have strong magnets, quality materials, long lasting, and secure. Only two negatives, if you put lots of stuff in it, it does bulge out and the bulge can be visible, naturally. Secondly they do not last forever, just like anything else. After you've been wearing it daily for four or five years, expect the magnets to tear through the material. Again naturally. This comment is a bit tongue in check, it lasts a long time and is worth every penny. I own literally 3 or 4 or these pouches. I bought them before the process went up or the quality went down. I bought my Wife a pink one a few years ago, the quality did not change. Great job!
Review: Very happy with the Running Buddy XL! - My enthusiasm for running and cycling is only eclipsed by my enthusiasm for my new absurdly large Nexus 6 phone. I will not leave for a long run or ride without having my phone in the event of an emergency which made me very hesitant to buy a phone with such generous dimensions. My prior two phones were of the 5" variety and served their role in two different cases both with the traditional belt clips that I came to expect as the best available option. During all but one activity (in which the clip of one of the cases broke off and the phone surrendered to gravity) the cases served their purpose. While I eventually accepted it as normal the belt clip style cases tend to bounce around during an activity dampening my confidence in their ability to protect my glass and silicon investment. This is especially true when they are clipped to the waistband of my flimsy running shorts. Enter the Running Buddy XL. After shopping desertcart and adding and removing several belt clip style cases to my cart I came across the Running Buddy. The idea of wrapping this thing around my clothes and expecting magnets to keep it there seemed compelling but perhaps a little gimmicky. It was the positive reviews that convinced me to finally commit to the purchase. The item arrived on the day I expected it (fast shipping) and after a careful examination I was impressed with the quality of construction and also the friendly email that arrived shortly after making me feel good about the company and confident in their support (very nice touch!). Now for the flimsy shorts test. I purposefully put on the thinest shorts I have, wrapped and snapped the magnets on the Running Buddy, inserted my phone, tensioned up the drawstring on my shorts and took off for a 5 mile trail run. The Running Buddy held my phone solidly in place as if it was part of me. Even with the bigger and heavier phone I was more confident that the phone was safe and was not going anywhere that I wasn't than I have ever been with a belt clip case. Needless to say I am very happy about my decision to buy the product. My Nexus 6 with a relatively thin case fit snuggly in the front slot. Due to the size of the phone I wouldn't attempt to put much more than some cash and few cards in there with it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Minimalist Wallet Companion
*by V***T on February 13, 2018*

Update: Lasted one year before the stitching came loose and the magnet popped out. Been using it daily and on the side of my hip as oppose to front and back. Also own the XL which I also use daily. I clip those on the back of my pants and still in excellent condition. I personally use this in-conjunction with my minimalist wallet as my wallet tend to only hold cash and cards well. Great for when i get spare change (from cash transactions) and a good place to put my spare car/home key (in case I lock myself out of my car/home). Other times I use this is when I need to do quick grocery shopping and/or fast food run in the middle of the night, still in my sweatpants and don't want anything slipping out of my pant pocket (put credit card, cash and driver's license in running buddy) when getting in-and-out of the car. Very good tight fit. No belt required. Conforms to the side of your hip really well and feels like an extension to your pants instead of an add-on. It's held together by strong magnets, and does not move or bounce around at all. Most of the time, you don't even realize it's there unless you make a conscious effort to do so. Outer material is made of the same material as the air-flow back padding in most high end backpacks and is super breathable. It's able to fit a flip phone (if you still own one of those). In terms of a 5inch phone; it does fit with normal to slim case, but note that you can't close the velcro opening flap and it might be a tight fit. If you use a modern smart phone I'd opt for the regular size or XL side running buddy. Just note that with those, you have to clip on the running buddy in front of waist instead of the side, which may look a bit awkward in public if you're not jogging or doing a physical activity. Overall very happy with this product and been using it daily. Things I wish they would change is make the company logo more subtle, and maybe add an extra inner pocket/divider in the mini version of the running buddy.
