dlo action jacket for 3rd generation ipod nanoI was pretty excited when I got the 3rd-generation iPod nano; the possibilities for running were great. However, I lacked one critical accessory: a good protective case and armband.

I soon found that the DLO Action Jacket solved my problems. The neoprene case is designed specifically for the 3rd generation (4GB/8GB) iPod nano, and comes with a 180-degree rotating belt clip and an adjustable armband. The Action Jacket retails for $30, but I was able to find it for as low as $18 (plus free shipping!) on Amazon.com. Colors are available in black, white, or pink. I personally like the black.

To me, a mark of a good armband is that it makes no impression on me. In other words, I won’t know it’s there, leaving me free to think about my run and enjoy the music! The Action Jacket succeeds in this with its simple design. The neoprene case with clear viewing window protects the iPod from the elements, and a “cut-out” in the case allows me easy access to the nano’s Click Wheel. I actually ran with it during a snow storm, and it did its job.

The armband goes on easy enough, and stays on (somewhat remarkable considering skinny marathon-guy frame). Buff people need not worry either; the arm band is quite adjustable, and fits up to a 20″ bicep circumference. I greatly prefer an arm band while running, but I did appreciate the fact that I could easy clip the case to my belt, backpack, or other apparel during other activities.

Whether you are looking for protection, portability, or versatility, the DLO Action Jacket is a viable ride for your iPod nano.
