Designed to complement the latest fashion in gym gear, the Belkin Armband for Zune is as sharp looking as the player itself. But it's not just about looking good: If you're a night runner, you'll appreciate the reflective material that will help to keep you visible. And the band's snug and ultra-comfortable fit means that your player won't jostle around and serve as a distraction while you exercise. In fact, except for the music streaming into your ears as you workout, you'll barely know the Zune is on your arm.

The armband is made of neoprene, a slim, stretchable and ultra-light material that is water-resistant and hand-washable. In addition to holding your Zune securely in place, the band also includes an integrated key pocket that can hold your gym key while you're working on your abs. (And when you're not at the gym, you can protect your Zune from the hazards of everyday usage with the elegant Belkin Leather Sleeve or the edgy silver-and-acrylic Remix Case.

The Zune's display is fully protected by a clear screen that allows for easy navigation. A Velcro closure ensures a universal fit that is secure, and quick and easy to adjust.

The Sports Armband for Zune is backed by Belkin's Lifetime Warranty.

Customer reviews

worth the cost by .. Anthony (Arizona)



sucks you can't find these things very easily in stores. all they have are Zune 30 accessories. Makes it easy to work out, and the plastic over the Zune pad doesn hinder operation. you have to take it out though to charge it.

Too Small! by .. Carrie A. E. Figueroa (Baghdad, Iraq)
I bought this item for my husband and it doesn't fit around his arm! It's completely useless to him. The item however seems to be well made. The Zune fits into it very snug, but not so snug that you'll tear it trying to get it in there. After you put it in the first time, it will stretch and you shouldn't have any problems fitting it in after that. I gave it three stars simply because the armband isn't long enough.

I'm not a big fan. by .. Jose Jones ()
This armband looked and felt cheaper than I thought it would. The Zune fits snugly -- but maybe it's TOO snug. You can barely fit the Zune into the too-small opening. I had to stretch it out and rip it to fit it in there. As the previous reviewer mentions, the plastic screen adheres to the Zune's screen and it makes it really difficult to remove (and MP3 players are hardly the type of thing you want to have to yank, pull and dig your fingers into).



I couldn't really find a comfortable tightness balance around my bicep. When it was tight enough that the Zune didn't move, it felt like the circulation was being cut off. I had better luck strapping it to my forearm, though I felt like I had on one of those things quarterbacks wear listing their plays.



The plastic screen doesn't interfere with the controls, which is its one benefit.




I'll probably continue to use this -- because though it is annoying it serves its purpose -- but I wouldn't hesitate to buy something else if it looked better.

armband review by .. cake peg (raleigh, nc)
armband is very comfortable. it was kind of a tight squeeze to get the zune in at first, and now that i've had to force it so much it is starting to tear a bit at the top corner. also since i use it while running moisture seeps through the neoprene. also the clear screen on the armband sticks to the front of the zune screen so its a little annoying trying to manipulate the zune out of the armband when you are done using it.

Annoying by .. Chava'le ()
The armband is annoying in that you can't charge your zune while it's inside. It's also a bit tight.
