Spibelt expandable spandex stretch belt w/carrying pouch, V31563, $17.46 + $4.47, 5 colors


According to reviews the Note 3 won't fit. I did find a Spibelt with a larger pocket on Amazon and the reviews says it will fit the Note 2 and 3. I would post a link, but does the webbie still delete threads with links to other places? I think I'll refrain from posting a link to be safe.

For the people saying to take a handbag, I'm not sure if I made myself clear. This is walking for exercise not shopping, etc.

I have the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and I love it too. When I don't have a purse or pocket....I just tuck it in the top of my bra! Done! My friends do the same.{#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

Sorry, but as a Breast Cancer Survivor, I would NEVER store electronic devices anywhere near the breasts.

The research is ongoing, but I'd avoid this practice, too. I have a friend who's a medical professional at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, and she feels the habit of "wearing" a cell phone in a bra has far too much potential peril.

Check out Q's Lunch Time Specials today. There's a set of two cell phone wrist wallets. If that doesn't work, there are other suggestions on the right margin of the product page.


Thanks. I just checked them out and they are all too small. This phone is about 3 1/2 inches wide by almost 6 1/2 inches long with the case on. It was worth a try though.

mima, I'd suggest you check websites like eBay, Amazon, etc.

One of my sisters found several really pretty cases (everything from sparkly designs to more simple, classic ones) on chains or straps for her iPhone, and she wears them cross-body like a tiny bag. Just check the specs to be sure the size is correct for your phone.


Thanks. Will do.

Re: How do you carry your large phone while walking with no pockets?

I have an iphone in an Otterbox case and I take my phone with me when I walk (for music and fitness apps). When my workout clothes don't have a pocket, I use the large pocket spibelt, which easily fits my phone, keys and even sunglasses if I need to take them off. I ordered mine from the spibelt website.

Re: How do you carry your large phone while walking with no pockets?

I have a Galaxy S4. I bought a holder that clips on the waistband of my pants and holds the phone.

I only carry it this way when I am walking my dogs or the other few occasions I'm not carrying my purse. Otherwise I keep the phone in a pocket in my purse.

Re: How do you carry your large phone while walking with no pockets?

I found a great product called Hip Klip. It clips on my pants and has two pockets to slip the phone into, one of them is zippered. Look for it online, but I got it at a craft fair, but also have seen it at county and state fairs. It wont work if you are wearing a dress, but is great with pants or shorts!

Ah. I was wondering why the OP needed to take her phone on a walk.

Remember the days when you could leave the house and not have a panic attack because you forgot the stupid phone?

Such as texting and walking into a telephone pole?
