Hi everyone,
I recently got a RebelTouch case and love it. However, I also need an armband for things like running and mowing the lawn. I've never had an armband case so I don't know, but do they fit tightly around the iPod or not? I need an armband that is safe for the iPod but big enough that I can take my iPod in and out of, but leave my RebelTouch case on. Anyone know of one?
Thanks.
 
Anyone?

Does anyone have an armband and RebelTouch case that they can try? Please help.
 
Seriously? I hate to be annoying but I was sure someone would be able to help me.
 
I have not heard anyone that had an armband on the case, but isn't it a crime punishable by death to tripple post in your own thread?
 
I guess I want to know, from anyone that has an armband for their iPod Touch, how tight it is. Does the ipod fit very snug in it? Or is there a little bit of room that might allow for a case also?

I have this case. It does fit rather snugly.
 
You have to buy a case that has an armband attachment. You can't just buy an armband and stick it on any case...How would it get attached?

I think what he was saying is he wants an armband he can slide his iPod touch INTO while the case is still on the touch.

I want to know the same thing- I like some of the silicone cases, but need to be able to have it slide into an armband pouch to occasionally use it while lifting or working out.

Anyway have both a silicone case and a workout armband- does it slide into the armband pouch while still in the case?
 
I used the Rebel Touch Switch Easy for some time. I found an armband in the sports department at Walmart that it could slip into. It was snug, but usable. I still use it with my other cases. The iPod slips in from the top.

It is made by Sportsline and is just under $9.

You can try it before buying it, as it is not in an enclosed packaging, just wrapped around a piece of cardboard.
