Running Buddy Magnetic Hydration Pouch No Belt No Clips Water Holder

I bought one and loved it so much, I purchased another. I attach it to my Janji waist pack and the magnetic clasp holds really well. It's light enough to avoid causing any bounce. I run in the sweltering heat, and need to carry water, but I have never found a hydration waist pack or backpack that doesn't drive me crazy. The bottles are a bit small for a long run on a very hot day, but carrying two at a time helps; I will probably get a 3rd to attach to the back of my waist. There is a larger size that was sold out everywhere last time I checked.

I received the Running Buddy Pouch 6+ for a birthday present and really liked the way it worked, so I was excited to buy the H2O version. It is very comfortable with a strong magnet so there is no bouncing. The 7oz water bottle is easy to get out and the 10oz is a bit more snug, but I still find it easy enough to get out and then put back in. I just bought the one with the 7oz, so I would recommend paying the extra few dollars and getting the 10oz one as well. I had to buy it from their website, so I could have saved myself the hassle. I like the 7 oz for shorter runs and the 10oz for my longer runs. The water bottle is simple and you have to open it instead of being a squirt bottle, but it does not bother me. For this price, you cannot beat what you get and the quality- I know I am going to have all these products for a long time!

I have had one of these for years that I used on every race and then bought a second one for a marathon this year that I didn't want to rely on provided aid stations. With the smaller bottles it works perfect on most shorts. I only ran into issues on my running tights (to be fair I hadn't tested it prior to the race) which didn't work well. The magnets didn't seem to want to stay connected and the lack of a thicker waist band as on my running shorts meant the weight of the bottle full kept allowing it to rotate upwards and out. Eventually I gave up and just carried both - which isn't bad - they are small enough to fit in the hand easily.. Lesson learned - use these with my normal running shorts only! Other wise, these have worked perfect for every run!

I am a fan of Running Buddy products to hold ID and keys. However, I needed something else to carry a small water/hydration bottle that I could put on and take off quickly. I looked into all of the "clipped" versions but unless you have the right waistband thickness or clip your underwear along with your running shorts/pants it just jostled loose. The Running Buddy H20 Pouch has strong magnets and when properly secured it wont go anywhere while running or just doing house/yard work so I ca keep up w/hydration. Plus it provides enough water for a run of a decent distance if I need more liquids I'll buy another. Definitely a functional item with lots of value.

I highly recommend this little pouch for long runs and hikes. I recently used it while hiking in the Grand Canyon. It's great because you don't have to keep getting into your backpack to get a drink. The leakproof bottle does only hold about 7 ounces of water so you will need to refill it if on a long hike, but way better than getting into your pack every few minutes. The magnets are strong and the pack stayed in place, even with 100+ temperatures and never came off of my waistband. Definitely worth the money in my opinion.

I’m on the fence about this. It is convenient for shorter runs, as I hate carrying a handheld. The magnets mostly stick well and I haven’t had an issue with the bottle leaking as others have. That being said, when the bottle is full it does tend to bounce/drag and this doesn’t work with more elasticized type waistbands. It works better with wide flat waistbands. It’s not super comfy worn in front so I wear it in the back and there have been times the entire thing fell off when I grabbed the bottle. The small Flipbelt bottle seems to work better as it’s slighly smaller than the pouch. Overall it’s a decent alternative when you want a small amount of water on shorter runs (and I wouldn’t wear this for a race).

I started running in February with a group that required we carry hydration. For a while I was using a bulky handheld bottle with a phone carrier. It was convenient but cumbersome and way more water than I really needed. I did a race a few weeks ago and didn’t take anything because I knew there would be plenty of water stations on the course. I couldn’t believe how much better it felt to run hands free! That’s when I decided to make a change. I’ve never liked belts with the clip so I bought a soft stretchy one for my keys and phone and found this for my hydration. I LOVE this thing. I attach it on my belt on my hip. It stays in place, is easy to get in and out and is enough water for my runs. Highly recommend this product.

I have not carried a purse since 1984 when I traveled all over Los Angeles for the 1984 Summer Olympics. For years I had my jackets and blazers altered to add a pocket to carry a small wallet. With the arrival of cell phones I was back to square one. Early cell phone belt holders were awkward and bulky. They needed a belt or worst case they pulled pants down. FINALLY - I decided to scour the web and find something - anything better. DA DA! Running buddy was my salvation. I started with the basic pouch for my small wallet. I also started with the basic pouch for my cell phone. When I graduated to the Galaxy Note 5 I needed the larger pouch for my cell and recently I replaced my small wallet for a slightly larger one. Voila! The Running Buddy H2O pouch is the perfect size! I own at least 10 Running Buddies in various sizes and colors. Every day I wear both the wallet and cell pouch. They are part of every outfit and are constantly with me. They may be designed for runners or walkers but I have more and more friends who have discovered how wonderful they are.

Parfait pour la course à pied. Se glisse dans le short. Très bon maintien avec l'aimant, la gourde ne saute pas et est très bien accessible en courant. La meilleure solution que j'ai trouvé pour la course à pied !

I was very skeptical about how well the magnet would work, but I have done countless train runs and road runs and it works very well. The bottle has never popped out of the holder even once. It is very comfortable to wear and I am a real difficult customer :)

I have finally bought and used this product after mulling over for ages because it's quite expensive for a water bottle. That said, it is sooooooo much better than the hand held bottles which drive me mad. I am extremely pleased with it and wished I'd got it ages ago! It is v firmly held in place by magnets.

great little bottle and pouch (magnetic) well worth the money if you are a walker or runner. well made and easy to carry or wear

As long as your clothes are close fitting.
