Is it sweatproof? I know it is kinda waterproof, but does it design for sports?

This week I've ran 4 times with it, total of about 10 miles and no issue so far.

I place my iPhone with the otterbox inside the band and have not noticed any sweat or moisture getting to the phone. I have also jogged in he rain with his armband with no issues.

Nooooo it is not waterproof. I have had to replace a couple of them when I was in dense fog or at the beach. They just stopped working. You can use it during your workout, ( I use it when I am on the treadmill), just don't get it wet.

It is not water resistant and needs to be changed daily, at least for my daughter. She uses it when she plays volleyball and she works up a sweat.

I've never noticed that my phone has gotten wet while running in the rain or sweating heavily on a run. The band does hold some sweat, but it doesn't seem to reach the phone...at least not in my case.

I would think so. It has a plastic cover over the face of the phone and the arm band is sweat proof. I've been using mine for two months now. I really like it. Also you can turn the arm band under your arm your arm, or to the side.

I've run with it in light rain a few times and it has been fine, but I wouldn't call it waterproof. Ive been running in 90+ degree temps and sweat hasn't been an issue for me. There isn't a lip that folds over the device once it is in the pouch or anything so its open on top. Hope this helps!

It will be fine for all the sports you mentioned. I forget I'm wearing it....very comfortable. Not bulky at all. Actually unnoticeable with compression shirts on.

The armband itself (the fabric portion, not the rubbery bit that encloses the phone) does get sweaty. To combat this, I generally just remove the band from the rubbery part after a run and throw it in the washing machine with my running clothes, then I let it air dry. Hope that helps!

Yes it should be fine. I am guessing you are worried about it being damaged by the sweat. I have not had any issues with it when I work out and sweat or even when I use it around the pool or water. So it should be fine.

Are you wearing it under water? Maybe sweat proof but, not water proof. They run great but, they don't last. These things are a dime a dozen, like most of them. Start out great but, kick out when you really need them. And, it doesn't matter how much you spend. I've spent anywhere from 30.00 to 150.00. I still got the same amount of life span out of each. Not one said water proof.

Not waterproof per say. I've run with it in the rain and haven't had any problems. Depends on if the water will get into the headphone jack opening at the top of the phone.

I would advise against it. It is not that secure and sweat will be an issue.

So far, so good for me personally as far as being 'sweatproof'..i use it twice a week, every week & i sweat a good amount.I wear it high on my bicep and it has not affected my phone under the plastic..

I sweat a lot when I run my longer runs. It held up just fine. I live in a dry climate so I can't answer about the humidity. I had another armband that had a lot of condensation, but this one allows my iPod to bresthe eliminating any condensation.

It works fine in the rain, It gets wet, but doesnt soak through very fast. I wear it pretty much from mid march to early october, . I run my Marathons in it.. You will wear it all the time once you get it. Just buy it, Nuff said.

Yes, it really is sweat proof. My arm may sweat a little under it, but my phone stays bone dry.
