can it be worn in the pool doing water walking?

While it is waterproof and can be worn in light water, like a short shower or heavy rain. It is recommended that you do not wear it swimming or submerged in water.

I don't think so. The manufacturer says to not panic if you shower with it, but recommends taking it off before showering. I believe there are other brands of monitors that do well I the water...

No. As I understand it, the waterproof ones have been sent to an independent company for waterproofing. I have been wearing my in the pool and it has worked fine. I was told by Nike that the waterproofing invalidates the warranty. I found this out after I received and used mine.

Thank you for your question! Although it looks as though it could be used in the water, and the seat is machine washable, the manufacturer's specifications do not indicate that the Exersaucer itself can be submerged. Hope this helps!

I haven't tried it in water but it is the best shirt I've found for the Oklahoma high humidity summer temps. I walk 6 or 7 miles daily in all kinds of weather and this shirt wicks moisture very well and does not cling. It also dries very quickly without wrinkling. I think it would probably be great for the water. I love this shirt! Very comfy.

Yes the material is water-resistant, not waterproof. You can walk in the rain with it, but not diving with it.

Thanks everyone for all your input. I was about to purchase the BB but am now decided on the GWF. But does anyone know if this is waterproof and can be worn while swimming?

I've got mine wet a couple of times, Don't know if you can swim in it. It take quite a bit of abuse.

I have not tried this with swimming, I don't think it was meant to do that. I have used it to exercise - and it did get wet with sweat and still works, no issues

I would not buy it if your main excises is swimming! They don't recommend wearing it while swimming

Not sure... I've never tried it in water. The material is 100% cotton so I imagine it would change when wet. They also have a Baby K'tan Breeze which is made of mesh and is not 100% cotton, it's a blend. Maybe that would suit your needs better? I imagine the regular K'tan would get quite heavy when wet because it's soft but quite thick as it's meant to hold and support baby. Hope this helps! :)

The GSI is probably water-resistant to a depth of several maters, so you likely wouldn't hurt it if you wore it while swimming as a watch. However, the heart rate monitor works on the basis of wireless transmission from the chest strap to the GSI. This is designed for transmission through air, not through water. I wouldn't risk it.

I don't see why not. Just make sure the three zip locks are well sealed and the edges are still good. I have used it in heavy rain with no problem but haven't tried to swim with it.

Yes. It is not made to swim but things like drop in water/rain/splash is not going to harm it. It got washed in washer and battery got weak but still ok, next time I will open and dry it immediately lol.

Yes, I wore mine in the pool & lake several times and it worked just fine. However, after I changed the battery in the HRM, I haven't worn it in the water.

No, only the FitBit Flex is water proof. The Zip is water resistant to sweat, rain, and puddles, but not to submersion in pools.

Yes it can. I wear it when I swim in my pool. Make sure your battery is good. Occasionally the chlorine content in my pool will cause spurious signal issues, but it works. Also don't push any buttons on the watch under water.

I've need tried them for deep water walking but I don't know why you couldn't use them that way. They advertise their use for swimming and exercise in a pool.
