running vest phone holder for beach running
Guide / 01
Protect the phone from sand and moisture
Use a separate protective pouch if conditions call for it, and avoid opening a pocket where sand can enter. Do not treat water resistance as protection from salt water or immersion.
Guide / 02
Keep the carry simple on soft sand
The 20 × 13cm chest pocket holds a phone that fits; each shoulder pocket is 10 × 5cm. Carry only the small essentials you need and secure each zip before moving.
Guide / 03
Clean the vest after the route
Follow the care guidance: hand wash with mild detergent and hang to dry naturally away from direct heat. Do not iron or tumble dry the neoprene vest.
