Ordered this item as a replacement for a neoprene armband/holder. I was concerned the silicone material would be too flimsy, but was pleasantly surprised to see how stable it was on my arm. It is lighter, better designed, and more aesthetically pleasing than my previous model. I am very pleased with the product; particularly the reasonable price.

This little gadget covers visual damage on my player and saved it from more damage one week when I was dropping my player like an atomic bomb on accident. A must-have accessory!

There's no problem with the silicone skin itself, and the arm band's an arm band, but the belt clip is a joke. In the first place it's a chunky piece of white plastic (where the skin is black), so it looks stupid (and it would show since the case is intended to hang below it). Secondly, the "clip" is actually just a hook, with no clamping action, and it seems very brittle & likely to break, so it's not at all secure. Most importantly, it simply doesn't work. There's a part that slips through the silicone skin and snaps into the "clip" to hold your mp3 player to the "clip." However, that part will only snap onto the "clip" when the silicone skin is not attached. So, fabulous, you can hook an empty "clip" on your belt, but not your mp3 player, which, as you can see, pretty much defeats the whole point.
