Shoe Wallet Field Test – Results

After two three mile runs…broken.
After mentioning the Shoe Wallet as one of the possible ways to carry some form of identification during your training runs, I decided to purchase a couple samples of the product to test out.
My wife was the official field tester for this product. What a sport!
Installation: No problems. Wendy put a house key in the little pocket and was quickly out the door.
Experience: No sensations were observed throughout any run which is a good thing. Wendy didn’t realize it was even on.
Problem: After her second run (each of 3 miles), she took off the Shoe Wallet and noticed that the securing strap was already pulling out of the stitching. We wouldn’t be able to use it again.
Six miles of running caused this product to die. Could this this just be an extremely sour lemon from the batch? Possibly, but six miles doesn’t leave many warm fuzzies.
To carry stuff in your pocket – OK. To use for running – maybe not so much.
Has anyone had any long term running success with this product?
