Good for running? I was wondering how good the new clip really is...is it really strong enough to hang on to your clothes while running/bouncing around?

I have not tried it for running. I use it for kick boxing. Its good for that. My concern is that it might make the skin on your leg raw for running

So far I've had no problems with its durability. It hasn't broken and seems very strong. The only possible downside is that it shakes a bit during high intensity activity (I use mine for freerunning and parkour). Not really anything you can do about that though from what I can see.

I would recommend going with the GT if you plan to run with it. I have lightly jogged here and there with it and it has done fine. She is correct though, this particular one isn't for jogging.

Sorry I missed this earlier. I hope I'm not too late. I would believe so. I exercise in mine regularly. Though I am not a runner. They hold in place quite well.

The bag does not bounce while running. I only have poo bags in it, not sure if it would be different if something heavy is in it. I don't think the bag is actually big enough to carry poo in. I suppose it depends on how big the poo is...you could probably carry some if you didn't have a full roll of bags in the pouch. The pouch doesn't have much room when a full roll of bags is in it.

The belt clip has a small edge at the end of the clip which locks firmly to fabric. Along with that it has a very stiff spring which requires quite a bit of pressure to activate in order to clip it onto clothing. It's not your standard slide on clip. I do a lot of outdoors jobs that result in bumping and banging the case. I've yet to jerk the case off clothing with some pretty hard banging and the case will take all the abuse you can give it. Running with it would be mild compared to what I've done with it. It is not going to fall off!!

Personally I think it is too squishy for running in place. I've tried jump roping and jumping jacks with it and I feel like it makes me too unstable so I use a thinner mat for stuff like that. Hope that helps :)

Its great for running but use the side straps so it doesnt bounce. It can be hard to breathe when using all 50 lbs.

My workout shorts are too thick for the clip to fit perfectly. I usually have to either put it in my pockets or on the machine while I work out. I can walk with it on no problem. You may have a difficult time clipping it to workout shorts depending on how thick they are. I don't think it would clip well to a workout shirt since the fabric, at least on mine, are too thin. My main purpose of getting it was for work more than the gym. I do find that it doesn't skip if its in my pocket.

It comes with a clip ago you can clip out to your waistband, but it's so slim and light, I don't use the clip and just pop it in my pocket. When I work out, I rarely change songs since I have Playlist I make for running, lifting etc.

Yes, they work well for running. I've had the new S9 HD for 2 mths now and I run several times a week with no problems with reception or shorting from sweat. You can wear them on your hip (= very good reception (music and phone)with little to no covering or major obstruction)) or on your arm with an armband (best reception, music and phone). I've found they work VERY well for running.

I did not have any problems with the clip. I wore it on both my shoe and my waistband and it stayed secure.

Yes, it stays up well while running. But after using it for many times, I think it will loosen up somehow.

I'm not positive if it will supply enough support while running, but my daughter dances with it (hip hop & jazz funk) and it has worked for her.

Nope! I killed mine with sweat after a few months. But I loved it while it lasted. that was back in 2011. but I'm about to purchase another one, because I haven't found another one that I liked as much. another user suggested not clipping it on your shirt, but instead on your shorts so that it gets less moisture. I think that's probably a good idea. you'll have to get new earbuds for that, as the included ones are short, but you'd wanna do that anyway.

Marc, Yes, and my husband put them on for me as a gift. I wanted them because I was too "chicken" to use the clips...I love them...did 22 miles today and my speed improved. Perhaps because my foot wasn't sliding around.~from Andrew's wife!
