Perfect. I shall be using this for my half marathon race in October
Brilliant pouch. Perfectly fits my iPhone XS. Easy to take the phone out while running if you store it in the padded mesh front pocket. Room for keys, credit card, energy bar etc in the back. Comfortable when attached to waistband of shorts, leggings etc.Thank you blue gizmo for shipping so fast. Ordered one day here the next.

Great product
Used this running and riding my horse. Standard size fits an Iphone 6 and a few other bits and pieces. Comfortable fit, but imagine if you try to attach to loose fitting clothing may have a bit of drag factor. However stays in place when wearing jodhpurs and Lycra. Turned up very fast and when I commented on Facebook got a reply almost immediately. Might be wrong but I got the impression the company care. Would recommend

Does the job but is overpriced vs quality
I bought this size for my girlfriend as she takes her phone with her on runs, I have the smaller version for a car key and a folded up £20 note. Overall this product does just what you need it to do. However, to me it feels under engineered, as if someone had a great idea but then passed it on to the cheapest bidder to manufacture. It doesn't have the feel of a technical piece of running gear that you might expect, essentially all you get is a bit of fabric with magnets stitched in and a flappy Velcro lid.That being said, the smaller size is great. It holds my car key, some money and a card while I'm on a trail run that I have to drive to get to. I am very happy with the product in all but two areas, why is it not waterproof? Absurd decision and the entire line are vastly overpriced, especially given the quality of materials and that it’s not waterproof.So the next size up, which my girlfriends uses. Obviously you can fit more in it, she takes her Iphone 6 with her. She can’t wear it on her shorts as it pulls them down so she has to put it on her leggings. That’s fine when it’s cold but during warm weather runs I’m guessing she will have to ditch it based on her review.Overall I am underwhelmed but happy I have a solution to key storage without having to wear anything on my wrist. I would give 3 stars for this size and 4 stars for the smaller. I would love to see an even smaller size which is designed just for a key & credit card that would be as minimal as possible.

Great, comfortable, no bounce accessory
Best running accessory I've bought. I don't like having things around my waist so this is perfect. Once on you really do or get it's there. Big enough for phone, keys and tissues and does not move or bounce when running. Excellent product

Money well spent
i ordered this as hate wearing arm bands or runners belts as they begin to annoy me after a while and you have to stop to get anything out of them.This buddy pouch is a genius idea,so simple but yet so effective as you hardly know it's there.I like the fact because it's Velcro,you can open whilst still running.You can fit an iPhone 5s,keys and a few jelly beans in a seperate section at the front.If I was going to give any negative feedback,it would be not having a hole to thread earphones through.

Rollercoaster-prood and great for travelling too!
I have just returned from a trip to Disneyworld and the Running Buddy pouch excelled several times:1. During my air travel it was able to hold 4 British passports which I was able to keep on my person at all times and in complete comfort.2. During BIG rollercoaster rides, it held BOTH an iPhone 6 AND an iPhone 5C at the same time (in seperate compartments), as well as money, and I was able to do big high speed/g-force rides without any movement or damage to our mobiles.3. In 32 degree Celcius temperatures, it sat on the waistband of my shorts, and did not exacerbate any discomfort caused by the sweltering Florida climate.4. It got VERY WET on a flume ride (I'd removed phones for that ride of course) and it dried out quickly and without any deformation.To be honest, I haven't actually used it for its intended purpose (running) yet because I love my QuadLock armband for the screen accessibility ... but I would have absolutely no hesitation in doing so once the iWatch remote start/stop becomes more reliable.Similarly, I have no hesitation in recommending the Running Buddy pouch to potential buyers.

excellent product
this item is so handy for elderly men, clasps lovely and tightly around jogging waistband to keep credit cards and money safely tucked away. Bought one previously about 12 years ago, so great value

Tiny....
This is a great idea and after a couple of years deliberating whether to buy one or not I joined a running group and needed to start taking my phone out with me on runs so that I could track improvement in my running. I guess kind of foolishly I didnt check the measurements but went for the middle sized pouch spurred on by the list of items I could carry in it. I only have a small phone, Sony Xperia, no where near as large as my previous samsung or an iPhone so it didnt cross my mind that the phone wouldnt fit in it, but it doesnt. The pouch is absolutely TINY. I can fit an MP3 and a small bunch of keys, money and a credit card and that's it. My phone is due for an upgrade later this year and since it is one of the smallest available the pouch will be completely redundant then. It will be fine if I dont want to take my phone with me but that was the whole reason I bought it. On checking the dimensions now my phone is just under 6 inches so should fit but it doesnt; the whole pouch is just too tight to get the phone in and out of. I see that the 'Extra Large' is only a half inch bigger which really wouldnt make much difference.Really disappointed in this product.Can't comment on how good the magnets are as I havent been able to use it for it's purpose
