armband size Does anyone know how small this armband will go to snugly? I have small arms and plan on running with my video ipod and didn't want it to go crashing to the ground. I bought the xtreme ipod sports wrap that seems like it was only made for guys arms. My sister's arms are bigger than mine (what I would consider average female size)and it still didn't fit her either. Any info anyone could provide would be great.

If you find the armband is too big. Give HandStands a call. They have smaller ones that might work better for you.

Hi Aziza,This armband will fit arms that are bigger than 9" around. If your upper arm is smaller than 9", then this band will be too loose for you. However, that is pretty small so your arm is likely bigger than that. Just make sure you slide the case along the band to allow you to tighten it fully.Thanks,Mediabridge Customer Support856-216-8222Support@mediabridgeproducts.com

I have had no problems with the nano and running, but I'mnot running 10-20 miles! At 3-5 miles, it has no problems. I bought the (yeah, overpriced...) armband and it works well. I do often carry the nano around all day in my work as a carpenter, and it hasn't had problems there, either. I bought the nano because it is a flash memory player and as such has no moving parts, unlike the larger ipods that have little hard drives in them. Theoretically, with no moving parts it should be pretty immune to shaking, bouncing, etc. I couldn't use mine on a 10 mile run, as the battery life has a max of 14 hours.... Best of luck, DW

It's a PERFECT fit for iPod/iPhone Touch 5G. I have a hard case for my iPhone, it's not a perfect fit, but it works GREAT!!! This one will not fit a nano. Look for the one that says nano http://www.amazon.com/Mediabridge-Sport-Armband-iPod-Nano/dp/B00CST4LBK/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1400520980&sr=1-1&keywords=Mediabridge+Sport+Armband+for+ipod+nano

I wear mine on my forearm and it stays put fine. I took a measurement, and with the Velcro attached to about an inch overlap, it should easily fit as much as 17-inch biceps with a bit of stretch.

To be honest what I have experienced is these bands have been quite stretchy. Not knowing the comfort you are looking for I would go xxl since you will be putting in a phone or Ipod as well into the arm band. This is just my opinion though it's completely up to you.

Hi there,It feels as though it would fit an adult. It fits me and I am 5'5, medium built...really does ice the arm very nicely in comparison to other wraps as it also gets the elbow and shoulder. Also, unlike other formats where you have to insert ice packs in, this one is a gelled slip in sleeve that you never have to do anything to other than just pop in freezer. It's been great so far and at a terrific price too! Good luck!!

I had returned it. The armband was bigger than my arm. You should measure your arm and compare it to the band's.

I have 8GB on my curent (Gen 4) iPod. I have been wanting to upgrade to a video iPod for a while, but decided to wait hoping a new one would come out (similar to the iPhone). I am a little concerned about only having 16GB, but even more concerned about its shape. Is this iPod expected to fit into current iPod accessories? I have an iDock for my AV receiver, and I'd be bummed if this didn't fit. It came with several adaptors, but I don't think it has any that are for an iPod that thin.

I am not sure how that would work. The arm band for my iPod works with a clip. This device has a clip with the belt clip. That doesn't seem secure enough to me to work while working out. The belt clip comes off my pants when I am not careful. Someone may have created an arm band that would work. But, I would carefully research that before I purchased it.

Is there anyone here that has owned this for a while? I am really liking the good reviews and the price BUT I'd like to know if it can last at least a year. I'd also like to know if it's good for your arms. I have read a few people saying there is limited motion. I don't mind that at all but I'd just like to make sure it can at least help to tone the arms up.

I have a Nano; it's a few yrs old-- the one w/ the camera. I love this armband; use it every day. I wear it "upside down" so that the iPod loads from "the top" now and I can read the screen bec it's "right side up" to me looking down at it on my arm. Plus, I used a quarter to draw a circle and cut a circle out of the plastic so that I can actually touch the touch wheel. That isn't totally necessary, but it's better for me.

I'm not sure how you guys are wearing this, but maybe I put the band on backwards? It's stretched out to ~18ish in and I think it would it snug on 19. My arms are 12in and I wrap it around almost 1.5 times. I think it would work!

I suggest measuring your arm where you will wear it. I wear mine on my upper arm. S/M fits 8.5"-11". M/L fits 11"-15". For people with larger arms, there is an extender that adds 3", according to Sporteer website 15"-18".

It has worked fine for me.I just slip it on and loosely adjust the velcro part. This was with a large cuff. To be sure ask for the circumference before ordering. I have fat arms. I just lean it on the table and then put my arm through...

I had no issues with it sliding off my arm while running or cycling. Be warned though that any armband needs to be really tight around your arm to not slide around. Not cutting off your blood tight but pretty tight. My wife also has never had a problem with this armband sliding off her arm while running. I really like this armband and felt it worked really well.

I think it might be too big. I just wrapped it around my forearm and the Velcro goes way over the ipod...
