Product DescriptionThe DLO Action Jackets are the ultimate case for the active iPod owner. Exercise with your iPod and to the beat of your music. Take your iPod Nano with you wherever you go using the workout armband or rotating belt clip. Whatever kind of iPod you have, DLO has an Action Jacket that will fully protect the iPod Nano during any activity. Action Jackets are stylish, padded cases that feature a play-thru design so you never have to remove your iPod Nano to get to its controls.
Arrived in perfect condition, faster than I expected (Rating: 5 out of 5) I like that the action jacket has a belt clip so you can attach it to your pants or shirt rather than your arm. I'm very satisfied with my purchase.
Does its job flawlessly... (Rating: 5 out of 5) So I bought 2 of these... one for my ipod nano 1st gen, and my bf's 2nd gen nano... WORKS GREAT FOR BOTH. So ok, it can be a little snug, and light stretching is needed... but it fits, it has enough room to access all the controls, and protects my ipod from everything!
A recommended must have for gym goers... it has a clip and an armband attachment... depending on your preference... does the job and quite affordable too!
Another Lame and Cumbersome Piece (Rating: 2 out of 5) This is becoming an annoying habit - buying and returning annoying products for the Nano 1g.
This thing is a tangled web of woe and despair - bulky, unattractive, and functionally not good in terms of accessing the iPod's wheel through the plastic.
The arm band is a piece of junk. The belt clip is OK but obviously cannot be removed as stated. It is, however, a HUGE clip and will raise it off your arm by at least an inch.
The best band I have found so far is the Belkin F8Z153-KG, but it only works for the 2g, alas. Almost nice enough to make me want to buy the 2g. Or say to heck with them all and let my 1G get some dings and scratches. Or better yet, buy generic mp3 players instead of this Apple hegemony.
(Returning this item.)
Best case for running I have found (Rating: 5 out of 5) This case works very well for running. It is fully adjustable and will keep rain off the unit (not perfectly but well enough). Many have written how they don't like that the clip does not come off, but this keeps the unit away from my arm and away from sweat because the clip is how it attaches to the armband. With other bands like the Marware sportsuit my sweat would work its way through the case and all over my ipod. That cannot happen with this because of the nice separation from my arm. Some have said this does not fit the 2nd generation nanos, but they are completely wrong. It fits the second gen nano very well; snug but able to access the control wheel. It is made well and I believe will hold up well over time. I also happen to like the white color because it is different than all those boring black armbands out there.
