I need a case to use at the gym and while running. I looked at armbands and I haven't found one with good enough reviews and they all require you to put the iphone in and out of an ugly case.

So now I'm looking at belt clips. Here are the ones I have found

visionclip2 - with capsuleRebel or RebelSerpent

Seidio Innocase II Surface Spring Clip Holster Combo

I doubt ill use the clip anywhere else but at the gym, so I also want one that uses a good case, and the 3 above look like good cases.

Any recommendations ?

There has to be somebody here that can recommend something

I have a recommendation, but it's an armband since I run outdoors and am therefore concerned about protecting my iPhone from the elements a bit. I have an ArmPocket (http://www.armpocket.com/index.php?page=p_sport-new.php&id=1) (I plan to do a review of it soon) and think it's great. I have the the Sport20 model that has a see-through window for the iPhone's screen and iPhone fits in it naked or with a case on it, and there's still a little room for other stuff (ID, cash, credit card, and house key). The only negative is the location of the headphone hole (on the bottom) but this isn't an issue for me since I use Bluetooth headphones, if anything, when I run.

I always use an armband from Belkin when go for runs or biking. I like them they always work pretty well for me.
The OtterBox Defender also comes with a holster clip. But the defender makes the phone huge.

The ArmPocket looks nice... looks kinda big though

i saw the otterbox clip, but it does add a lot of bulk to the phone :dft002:amazed

I might try out an ArmPocket though, is it machine washable ?
