I have been running for a long time, track in high school and down the road today, and have never had great luck with the way Nikes fit my feet. I was enamored by the Nike+ipod capabilities, almost to the point of buying the 'special' Nikes until I saw this product. The shoe pouch just straps into your shoelaces. It's great to be able to put on the shoes that are most fitting and get the benefits of the Nike+ program as well.

Finally!
I was hesitant about spending money on a new pair of running shoes just so that I could use my Nike+ with my ipod. So when my husband bought me a pair of Nike+ I really wanted to like them. Unfortunately they just weren't as comfortable as my regular running shoes. After trying a few different pairs I gave up. I saw an ad for a shoe pouch for the sensor that looked about the same size as the shoe pouch that I already had, so I tried it. It worked but the accuracy was way off. The pouch was so big that the sensor bounced around too much and only 9 out of the 10 miles that I ran were measured. Oddly enough my husband had the same trouble when he was running with his Nike+ shoes. I thought maybe the sensor was bad, but once I got my Shoe Pouch and took it to the track I found that it was far more accurate than the bigger pouch and even the shoes. I don't know why the shoes wouldn't work, but that's just one person's experience!
Thanks

I tried to velcro the sensor to my shoe and it seemed stable but was completely inaccurate. Then I got one of these pouches and problem solved. Works perfectly.

I didnt want to run in Nike+ shoes. Prefer other brands. Bought a couple pouches for each pair of different shoes I run in, just move the sensor from shoe to shoe... Matched the color to the shoe too. Perfectly accurate, well made, reasonably priced.

I've been running with the shoe pouch for a while now - everything's been great for me. It is as accurate as any of the other models I tried - which is just as accurate as having the sensor in your shoe. I've tried two competing products the Switch Easy, and another pouch style one that cost a few bucks more. The SwitchEasy has the edge in looking cool - I liked that it shows the Nike sensor, the thing's good looking. Unfortunately it
CONSTANTLY swung open on me. I would have to stop and reclick it. I felt like I was going to loose the thing at any minute. I've used this shoe pouch for over 100 miles now, and love it. I have bought them along with a Nike iPod kit for everyone I know that has a nano.

This is a great idea that saved me a lot of money! It securely holds the sensor and the Nike shoes are not required. The fit is snug and keeps the calibration exact. You don't feel it on your shoe. It is not water proof, but there is some protection for the sensor. Overall, a really great product.

I've had the Nike Plus Running gear for over a year now and I really hated being restricted to using Nike Shoes. This product really works. I was a little skeptical at first but the pouch fit right on the top of my shoe and it works as if I was using a normal Nike Shoe. Would definietly recommend this to anyone who really likes the Nike Plus Gear but not a huge fan of Nike Shoes

I had many problems with the Nike shoe- this product saved my feet! I can use my old running shoes and the pouch keeps the sensor safe and secure. I have had no problems with it.

I received my shoe pouch and immediately went for a run. What a great
product - very simple and ingenious! Many of my friends have 'modded' their
shoes by cutting in to the heel, inserting the sensor and putting an insole
over the hole!!

I am very happy not to 'butcher' my expensive shoes and have something so
simple that works so well - congratulations to Grantwood Technology on this product, you have one - more happy customer!!

This product is very good for those runners that can not wear Nike running shoe, like myself. The sensor remains safely attached to the shoe. The one issues that I have is that it is time consuming to move it from one pair of shoes to another. I rotate between three pairs so it is a bit of a pain to undo the laces.
