Spibelt Performance series

Have you ever gotten ready to head out for a long run, wearing your new favorite leggings, only to realize you have no pockets? Well, don’t panic I have found the perfect solution. Spibelt Performance Series.

This elastic, adjustable belt with an expandable pocket fits along your waist. It’s really a perfect option when you don’t have pockets and need to bring a few things along for a run, workout or even just a walk in the park.

I received this pocketed belt to test out and I will just say up front, I was pleasantly surprised. It was super comfortable and subtler than I expected.   I found this version of the Spibelt to be very versatile, and not just a “running” product.  I tested this product for a couple training runs, a trail race and even to go to yoga.  I also wore it one day when running errands and didn’t want to drag along a purse with me.
​
This belt is definitely a value at $26. It seems to be durable, so you will definitely be able to use it for a few seasons without a lot of wear and tear. 

Here is what I liked:

• Fit’s really well around my waist. I’m petite and sometimes these belts move while running, but not this one.
• Water-resistant. This was huge, since I live in Southern California and sweat a lot on long runs.
• Zip pocket and loops on belt, perfect for bringing gels for long runs.
• The black color blends well with bottoms, and doesn’t look like I am wearing a race belt.
• No chaffing!!!
• Available in a variety of colors.

 
What I wished was a different:

• The pouch wasn’t as big at it seems, which limits the size of objects you can add. Since this option has a water-resistant shell it didn’t have a lot of flexibility to expand as much as others. This wasn’t that big of a deal, but if you have a bigger phone and want to fit anything else in the pouch, it could be an issue
