Product Information

Flasks can also have a lighter weight than reservoirs. However, some tend to fall down or are hard to reach without a lot of work while on the move. Look for elastics to hold flasks in position even when they’re partially empty. The Runitude Running Phone Holder Vest is touted as the lightest vest running phone holder on the market. Thanks to its patented design and the use of breathable neoprene material, the vest weighs a mere 159 grams. This lightweight design ensures that the vest doesn’t add any unnecessary weight during your runs, allowing you to maintain your speed and endurance. No More Phone Bouncing It also has one of the lowest profiles of phone holders on test, and while out running, I barely even noticed it.

A comfortable reliable hydration vest is key for staying fueled and motivated on a long run or race; (photo/Conor Hayden) Why You Should Trust Us Performance running vests can look like a lot of different things. But they are generally oriented towards all-day runs, long trail races, ultra marathons, and technical trails. Like with shoes, the fit is so individual, so don’t be put off trying a few different models and sizes to attain that elusive perfect fit. Also, like shoes, a rave review for vest ‘A’, or worn and promoted by some megastar, may not be the one that fits your own body shape best. To gain an understanding of the capabilities of each running phone holder on this list, we went on several different runs wearing them. We tried phone holders that could accommodate phones, with and without a protective case. We looked for little things, such as how easy it was to get the phone in and out of the holder on the run, the size of the armband, the price, and the extras. Many armbands have a holder to keep headphone wires out of the way, but we tested all of the phone holders using wireless running headphones. How should you carry your phone during a marathon? Try and go for softer materials, padding, and adjustability. These are all things that will help you be more comfortable, and thus run better, while out on the trail. Visibility

The clear plastic on the front of the phone holder is thin enough to allow you to control music or pause your running app while moving. Washing the Nike Armband is also simple, and during testing, I found washing it on the cold setting on my washing machine and air drying the phone holder worked well — the phone holder didn’t shrink or bobble in the wash. The weather is rarely reliable in the UK, so if you don’t want the rain to write off your run you’re going to want a phone holder that’s waterproof and has a decent zip seal. This is a no-frills armband — it holds your phone, and that’s about it. I liked that it fit both my cell phone and my phone case, and found that getting the phone in and out of the Tribe Armband was easy and that my phone felt secure in the holder. There are two different armband sizes, nine and 16 inches, to accommodate runners of all sizes.

From time to time carriers may deliver earlier or later, or on non working days however this is cannot be guaranteed nor should it be expected. Depending on the manufacturer and the model,there may be slightly elasticated materialon the sides of the vest, under your arms, or there might be a ‘cinch system’of internal drawstrings.Both are designed to provide a snug fit around you. When thinking about how much water you need, consider if you will have any opportunities to refill. If you’re running a race, how many aid stations are there? How long is the furthest distance between them? It’s not worth bringing too much more water than you need, since that will just weigh you down. However, it’s a fine line to run since water is a necessity while on the move. Many runners prefer one hydration method or the other, while others use both. However you choose to hydrate, you just need to make sure to bring enough water for your run. Capacity: Water & Gear The duration and intensity of your run will help determine how much water and storage capacity you need; (photo/Ilana Newman)You’ll also want to think about how sweaty a runner you are, and the types of weather you’ll be running in, as this might affect whether you prefer to buy something that’s machine washable. Getting the right fit is key for any piece of gear, but especially for a running vest. When possible, head to your local running store and ask for a fitting. For online shopping, take the time to measure yourself and refer to sizing charts. We do wish that the light thread also illuminated a bit on the front of the vest, as it is also important to be noticed by oncoming traffic — but bright reflective strips on the shoulder straps provide adequate visibility. Delivery timescales are based on working days; Public Holidays, Saturday's and Sunday's are NOT classed as working days. That said, if you’re looking for a phone holder that’ll let you use your phone on the run, this one is a good option, as I found the Tribe Armband to have brilliant touchscreen capabilities. I easily moved between songs, paused, and switched playlists on the move.

It's just an armband that you can clip your phone onto. It’s super lightweight and easy to run with. As the armband attaches to your phone case, there is no plastic covering over your phone, making it the best phone holder for using your phone while running. Of course, your phone isn’t protected from the weather, but if your smartphone is water-resistant, this shouldn’t be a problem. The ideal running vest is not distracting while on a run. If you’re trying on running vests, add some weight to them (water, layers, etc) and run or bounce up and down to mimic running. See if you notice the running vest. If you do, it will probably distract you, or even worse, chafe while on a long run. When the chest and tummy straps are fitted well, the hydration bottles or their pouches should lie vertical and not at too much of an angle. You also want to consider whether you want room to carry any extras on the run with you, such as a lip balm, credit card, or house keys. If you do, you might need a little more space. If you’re in the mountains, are there any opportunities to fill up water from natural sources? Just make sure to bring a water filter or some way to treat water if so. Sizing It’s important that whatever vest you go with fits well and doesn’t bounce up and down while you run; (photo/Ilana Newman)
