Accessory-Holding Running Belts

The FlipBelt Makes Running Effortless with Its Built-In Pockets

— March 13, 2013 — Lifestyle
The FlipBelt has come up with a brilliant solution to being able to carry your belongings with you while out for a run: a belt with cleverly concealed pockets.

Running is a great way to relieve stress, stay in shape and have fun while doing it. Being a running enthusiast myself, I know that it can be a major distraction having to carry all of your bulky accessories around with you. Dropping your phone or keys while running can disrupt your flow, and the FlipBelt is here to offer a solution to all of these problems. It's made from a polyspandex that has multiple openings, which fits nice and snug at your waistline, and is so thin that it appears to be a part of your waist band. This belt is guaranteed to hold your all your items securely, and it even comes with reflective logos for running safely at night.
