I’m in the market for a new running belt and I’ve been looking closely at the STRYQ Running Belt. I plan to buy it from Amazon UK, but before I go ahead, I really want to hear from people who’ve actually used it. Does it truly live up to the hype?
From what I’ve read, it’s designed to be bounce-free and snug, which sounds great in theory. But is it really comfortable during longer runs, especially half or full marathons? Does it stay in place when you pick up speed, or does it gradually shift and become distracting?
Another thing I’m wondering about is storage. Can this STRYQ running belt comfortably hold a larger smartphone, house keys, and maybe a couple of gels without feeling overloaded? Does the fabric stretch too much if you put in multiple items? And once it stretches, does it ever go back to its original fit, or does it start to loosen up over time?
I’ve also seen people mention breathability. How well does the fabric handle sweat on hot days? Does it dry quickly, or do you end up with a damp band clinging to your waist? For those who’ve used it regularly, how’s the durability after multiple washes?
Finally, compared to other belts you’ve tried, do you think this one is worth the price? Or would you suggest something else in a similar range?
