 Does what I expected and required of it. January 6, 2009
Eric S. Olstad (New Jersey, USA)
People seem to be very critical of these armbands. I did quite a bit of research with product reviews both professional and amateur before finally deciding to purchase this product for my wife for her to use with her iPod classic 80GB at the gym.
The Action Jacket accomplishes everything that was required -- to hold the ipod while working out, allow access to easily control the ipod and also allow to be plugged into a dock connector without removal from the case. The additional requirements were that it was to be comfortable and last a reasonable amount of time.
The iPod is easily placed-into and removed from the action jacket. It's secured by a simple velcro tag at the top. As a sign of good design, the soft part of the velcro is the part that touches the skin, so you don't have to worry about chaffing when running on the treadmill or something like that.
In addition, the bottom of the jacket has a reinforced opening for the ipod dock connector. It may require some finger nails to get at the buttons on the dock connector when removing it, however. But it's hardly an issue.
The jacket secures itself in one of two ways -- an elastic strap that runs through nylon "buckles" on the back of the jacket which secures via velcro to your arm (one size fits all) or a plastic belt clip that secures via a plastic nubbin on the back of the jacket. To use the belt clip, you have to remove the elastic strap as it covers the plastic nubbin which the clip attaches to. The strap-covered-nubbin is actually an important thing as well, as it protects your arm from the nubbin itself when using the elastic strap.
The jacket itself allows you to easily access the iPod control wheel. It's an open hole so there's no need to worry about that. I'm not sure what other reviewers are talking about a piece of plastic. There is no plastic there (maybe on an older version). If there was, you could easily remove it with a pair of scissors.
That's about it. If you're looking for something to provide protection for your iPod, this may not be the optimal solution though there is a decent amount of padding in the jacket.
People seem to expect too much when it comes to these jackets. I find the Action Jacket meets all expectations.
Great Durable case September 3, 2008

I've had one of these for three years. I love it. I can't use my dock with it though. It looks a bit worn and torn, and it might not be the prettiest solution for your iPod case. But It can withstand droppings and such with no problem.

I don't know what other people were looking for in an Ipod case, but I am of the opinion that simpler is better.
This little case was just what I was looking for in a lightweight and durable armband Ipod holder. I am a big jogger and hiker and I was looking for something that I could strap on and forget about. This little case gets the job done.
It is extremely lightweight, and the adjustable arm strap can fit huge arms as well as smaller arms. When comparing it to the more "bulky" armbands I have used in the past I notice the armband doesn't get as HOT (or sweaty) as other arm bands.
In my opinion its a great small and inexpensive option to the more expensive brands out there. While I don't suppose it would stand up to any "torture tests" (i.e., don't expect it to protect your iPod from a 2 story fall) I would recommend it to anyone who needs a no fuss moderately priced protective sleeve, and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a lightweight armband for running/working out.
 May work, but not for me.... March 25, 2008

I was thrilled to have found this case that includes the armband and the belt clip as well as protection for the iPod. Having had it for a day the thrill is gone; uncomfortable, difficult to opperate while case is on, belt clip is huge and it separates the iPod about an inch from you. It makes you look funny. Nevertheless, I may have considered keeping it if it weren't because of the useless piece of rubber at the bottom which keeps me from using my iPod in my car dock with the case on. Very dissapointed. Go for something else.

Works as expected. Provides good protection for the iPod while allowing access to clickwheel and video/audio port. Access to the dock connector is sometimes a little cumbersome - need to make sure connection is secure. I have not used the belt clip - it looks a little fragile to support an expensive iPod Classic. The armband works great.
