I totally made fun of my kid when one day he came out into the living room the other day wearing a "fanny pack"....We had "fanny packs" back in the 90's, and let me tell you, they were cool for about a minute, then it was only grandma's who sported them. Apparently, like everything else from slap bands to hyperglow T-shirts, fanny packs are making a comback. Insane I know. However, I cannot stress this enough, this is NOT a fanny pack! This is a "RUNNING BELT" and while fanny packs are so not hip, running belts totally are! I love mine! It's sleek, not at all pouchy! It doesn't bounce when I run and it's barely even noticeable that I'm wearing anything at all. So feel free to buy one of these in confidence, no worries about your street cred on this. You heard it here first!

UPDATED: I have increased my star rating to four stars because the customer support at Dimok has been outstanding. Within hours of my original review, they reached out and offered a replacement pouch, which was promptly shipped. As I mentioned in my original review, I love many features of this pack as was excited to give it a second chance. I was assured that the manufacturing fault had been corrected. Sadly, though, the replacement had the same stitching failure. Because I was watching for it, I was able to catch it before the zipper pull came off this time and did a home repair, repairing and reinforcing where the zipper meets the belt. If you're handy with a needle and thread, I highly recommend doing this as a preventative measure. (I may even reinforce it with grommets at some point so that it has higher reliability.) It's otherwise a great pack and I really hope the design can be modified so that this kind of failure doesn't happen in future iterations. I don't use it on a daily basis because I'm worried about that weak spot, but I do reach for it on rainy days to keep my phone handy and dry.

ORIGINAL REVIEW
It's a shame that this running belt isn't made with higher quality standards. After only about two weeks of light use on the trail, the stitching of one of the primary seams came undone. The right side of the belt is now pulling away from the pouch and the zipper-pull also came off as a result (See photos). I really like the design - the storage is well-planned and I can easily store a key fob, my ID and my iPhone 7+. The webbing of the belt, unlike other packs, is elastic and flexible so it doesn't dig in and fits my slender frame well. The seam that unraveled looks like a temporary seam - the thread doesn't even match the rest of the thread on the pack (the thread is blue, while the rest of the stitching is black -- (e.g. basting thread)). Big disappointment!

I am a daily jogger. Used for about three weeks and this thing is falling apart. First thing I notice is Velcro failing to hold on the small pouch. Almost lost my keys a number of times. Then seam started to come apart on the phone pouch. Also noticed the belt kept getting loose around my waist in spite of constantly adjusting the strap. Turns out the adjustment in the strap just doesn't hold. Last straw...I went to zip up my phone on this evening's jog and the zipper came off in my hand. Again this is after daily use for about 3 weeks. I am returning the item.

This running belt is perfect and just what I was looking for. I ordered it in pink and the color is true to the picture. I had previously been running with a hydration belt, but I was rarely taking the water bottles. I was looking for something simple that would fit around my not tiny waist and would hold my I-phone 7. The band as well as the belt itself are made of stretchy material. The size is easy to adjust. My phone fits perfectly and the zipper is very secure. The pouch is narrow and snug. Your phone will not bounce around in there when you run. What I like best is that the belt is so comfortable and lightweight! Unlike my bulkier hydration belt, I totally forgot that I was wearing it. My only quibble is that the hole for the earbud cord is very tight. It takes a bit of maneuvering to get the jack through the hole. I assume that it is tight on purpose as the belt is waterproof. I would highly recommend this product if you are looking for a sleek running belt for a reasonable price.

I love my running waist pack
