I wouldn't recommend this item. I purchased this item for my 160GB Ipod classic which the item description says it fits, it doesn't. It doesn't fit snuggly on my ipod and slips right off. It comes with a thin layer of silicone over the click wheel which makes it completely unusable, I had to cut it out in order to use my ipod. I am already searching for a replacement. Don't waste your time or money ordering this item.

I'm not too impressed with this sleeve. The wheel wouldn't work with the sleeve on so I cut the area around the wheel out with a razor blade. I like the actual silicon sleeve. The strap would be short for bigger arms. Works great for mine (16") I do not like how the strap goes through the sleeve, though. When running, the IPOD seems to jiggle around a lot.

Over all I probably wouldn't buy this one again....

Good silicone case. The silicone is somewhat thin (compared to the belkin silicone case I bought for my old 2nd generation ipod Belkin F8Z060 Sports Sleeve for iPod nanos (Black)), but I expect it to protect my ipod just fine. The picture above is correct, the silicone case DOES indeed cover the click-wheel. The click-wheel still works with a layer of silicone over it, although not as well. I was hoping for a screen protector (as was included in the last ipod belkin case I purchased) but I didn't see one in the package.
I have "normal" sized biceps for a female, and the armband fits great. I don't think this would fit anyone with large arms.

Overall, the case is pretty good especially considering it's low price.

The only bad thing about this product was that the sleeve protecting the wheel inhibits its use. I ended up having to cut it out so that I could use my iPod without the frustrating slowness resulting from the sleeve covering the wheel. Perhaps they will make a model that will not require such jacklegging.

I purchased this item and although it fits very well and is quite adjustable, I cannot change the volume control at all. I contacted Belkin support to see if they had any thoughts, and after 4 days passed they told me that there was nothing to be done. Not very impressive service for such a large and otherwise reputable company.

Best iPod case if you are an avid runner or bike rider. Thin and easy to adjust. Fits perfectly with the sleeve in a i1010 pelican case. Not bulky like other protectors. Only thing it doesnt provide too much protection for your ipod in the event it falls. But the upside is that your ipod doesnt feel like this big contraption on your arm. For me its great, however just like anything you have to weight the pros and cons.

This cover is pretty cool! The only thing that sucks is I sometimes have to roll over the scroll thing on the ipod a little bit too much sometimes because the ipod doesnt pick up my touch from the cover. But it's great otherwise! Protects my beautiful new ipod! :D

I bought this since I have a Belkin case I use with my first generation Nano. The ones they made before were much better. This one fits well and the screen protector stays in place. The con is the scroll wheel. It is hard to get it to respond through the thin covering. I ended up taking an exacto knife and just cutting it out.

Its a good purchase at such alow price. It saves your IPOD from scratches. A must buy for all ipod owners.
