I joined up 1164 days ago and have made 134 purchases, but I don’t think I’m going to be able to buy anything else from you guys until you’re capable of proving you’re not a robot. After all, you still seem to have no idea whether or not I am a robot on your end leaving, instead, the burden of proof of my non-robot status falling right in my lap. Yep. Your lazy, sloppy tech spew is all over my lap. And yeah, I’m over it.
@AmazingChicken The people hating on these things have no use for them. I have one of these for carrying my phone (Samsung Note with giant extended battery and case) car key and ID while I’m out running or hiking or doing any other outdoor activity when I need to carry stuff but would rather not have it flopping around in my pockets.
If you’re an outdoor active type, I now consider this essential gear.
And it is very low profile; if anyone even notices it nobody with half a brain is going to judge you for wearing it while working out. But please, don’t wear it to work or anything like that.
Mine is going strong but tempted to pick up 4 for about what I paid for 1.
@smigit2002 or when the zipper won’t zip. That’s the issue i have with mine, but where it for 99% of my runs and it gets sweaty and stinks so have to throw them out. I even had one one with my phone when i fell off a bridge into a creek. My phone didn’t even get wet. So definitely in for a 4-pack. At the same price I paid for one on Amazon. And love the two pockets, that way phone can be separate from key and wedding band.
Can’t imagine why I would need 4, unless Meh is silently suggesting that I’m so fat that I need to daisy-chain four together to fit.
Hey Meh, are you saying I’m fat?! Are you???
All the pictures show a person only putting in the tip of whatever it is. Passport, phone, juice box. Can’t it go in all the way? Just the tip is never really satisfactory.
@thismyusername We tested it out on a buyer with a 40" waist (with an iPhone 6 Plus in it) and it still had a little room. Size 50 is probably pushing it.
Not that I plan on buying them, but are the zippers white or brown, or both? Different pics show different colors. I’m sure people don’t want to look stupid wearing this thing when it doesn’t match their outfit.
For those asking, the material is super stretchy to fit whatever you jam in there. I was skeptical too but it holds way more than it looks like it can.
@ShotgunX So far so good. I even used it a few times while playing soccer so I could use my phone to track how far I ran and used a chest strap hrm to get calorie burn. Never slipped off or anything.
Caveat is that it might not be the exact same one but it looks identical. Besides, you’re getting 4 which is like a lifetime supply.
The last picture is a gnome not a troll (looks like the Travelosity gnome).
I used to wear cuddle duds under my uniform from October to June (thanks to Ohio weather) and no one was the wiser.
Now my fashion statement in the winter is sweatpants and a sweatshirt. Unless I have a doctors appointment I have to go to- then its fleece leggings and a tunic. I’m thankful leggings are back in style. Even if they weren’t I’d probably still wear them since they are great for a person confined to a wheelchair.
I can see using this for outdoor activities. However, my son is a runner and he uses an iPod which he puts in a holder on his arm that is reflective and has two pockets to hold a key, money and his I.D. We got him a belt sort of like this but he couldn’t fit his iPod into it (regardless of how “stretchy” it claimed to be) and he didn’t like it bouncing around his waist when he ran.
@WTFsunshine I have an armband and this is 10x better. I lift weights and have bigger arms than the average person, but I think no matter the size of your arms an armband will eventually slip down after a while if you’re really moving. The only advantage of an armband is you have easier access to the phone. With this belt, taking your phone out necessitates stopping what you are doing to take it out (unless you’re hiking/walking).
Everyone has their preferences, but IMO for some activities this is invaluable and an underrated accessory.
@uscpsycho Sorry if this is TL… I do agree with you on all of your points. My son is 15 and between cross country (with 10 mile practices every day and meets on Saturday), then swimming (with 2 hour practices every day and meets on Wednesday during the summer and meets on Saturdays during the school year), dry land practice and weightlifting class in school and once a week with the swim team he is incredibly muscular and the arm band stays in place. My husband has to stay in shape and be strong enough to be able to do his job as a firefighter/paramedic as well as now having to lift me (I’m 5’8" and down to 103 lbs. but it’s like lifting dead weight). So he’s also extremely muscular and his stays in place as well for most activities. But he does use the belt my son didn’t like when he is working out. He prefers it, since he did rip one of the arm bands, and it provides more freedom of movement while working out. He did use the belt when they went hiking in Lake Tahoe this summer but couldn’t fit his phone in it. However it did work for everything else he had to take with him.
@Furbdog I use something similar for running so I don’t have a phone, keys, and my inhaler flopping around bangin against my “man bits”. Works great with BT headphones, and is tight enough to keep all my loose items tight and not tossing around.
Does anyone know how this compares to the SPI belt? I use it when I run to hold my phone and such, but the “water proofing” on the inside of mine is wearing out so I think it’s time to maybe consider a new one.
I prefer my fanny pack. It has room for my oversized phone and the tablet I use for audiobooks. Which I use with my cozyphones. Which even look geeky on the model. So there’s no hope for me looking cool.
I feel like this could actually be useful with several trips coming up. For those that travel to areas known for pick-pockets, I bet wearing one of these (especially with the zipper on the inside) under your shirt would defeat those bastards. Certainly cheaper than the $100+ pick-pocket proof pants.
My teenager uses a spi-belt for his epi pens. Very discreet, don’t move around much and unless he’s wearing a fitting t-shirt, you can’t see it. But they wear about every 10 months. This look comparable if slightly more bulky, so I’m going to get them so he has some options. Plus, considering a spi-belt is 1 for $20, this is quite a deal.
@dealluva My kids went on a school field trip in fourth grade and were required to wear fanny packs. Yes I said required. They were hard to find too. I guess if everyone has one there’s no one to make fun of you.
Not everyone knows this but I am one of four identical twin brothers. We jog together at night and were just discussing how to hold our keys. This is prefect!
These are good for nothing but sneaking mini liquor bottles into concerts and sporting events, which is to say that they’d be super useful if I wasn’t wearing socks.
my friends run ragnar relays. inevitably someone cant find their belt in the van. i picked these up for emergencies. neato. now can you do the emergency light/flashlight combo again that would be swell. i gave away my last useful glowstick, these were awesome https://meh.com/forum/topics/lifegear-4-in-1-emergency-lights-6-pack

@Pavlov spouse wouldn’t let me wear my meh bum bag to Disney. I had to stash everything in my pockets. Maybe this is ok next time?
@Pavlov It should have been named fannypack2.0
@Pavlov Is that a fanny pack in your GO Belt, or are you just happy to see me?
Meh
Scared me with the mehrithon stuff still up after midnight.
@rileyper yeah, got my hopes up. Then dashed me against a rock like a seagull with the leftover garbage from yesterday.
I’d buy like…two. But I really don’t need four.
@ShotgunX I’m going to try and sell my spares on Amazon, though I’m sure they’ll never be bought, hence how they ended up here…
@smigit2002 Sell the extras on your own site, ehhh.com
@ShotgunX heh; someone bought 3 deals. I know what their family is getting for Christmas.
Hey cool, meh is selling birth control
@lichme Savage.
Well would you look at that, more shit for the next fuk-off.
@studerc nope…if they don’t sell Tonite, they’ll be included in today’s fukos…

Hey Meh, are you saying I’m fat?! Are you???
@Kerig3 nah, we just assume you know 3 other people you’d be willing to give them to.
@Thumperchick Fake News! Meh’s really just calling me fat!
@Kerig3 we would never say that.
To your face.
@Kerig3 But they think you have 3 friends, so yay for you!
@deltahaze What they couldn’t possibly have known was that I ate those 3 friends, hence my weight problem.
Just when actual 90s style fanny packs are coming back in fashion, you sell us these?
@phatmass Wait…fanny packs went OUT? Jeepers! No one tells me ANYTHING.
All the pictures show a person only putting in the tip of whatever it is. Passport, phone, juice box. Can’t it go in all the way? Just the tip is never really satisfactory.
@katbyter You’ve obviously never had a tip the size of a juice box.
/giphy Please stop
@somf69 English (or Cornish) Rex cats are so cool.
I’m wearing socks and sandals RIGHT NOW
/giphy fuck the haters
I don’t believe these photoshopped images. You expect us to believe that guy is just sliding his passport into this thing?
@phatmass Yeah, next they’ll be saying you can use it for a sleeping bag.
@phatmass No, they expect you to believe he’s sliding his passport OUT of that thing.
Does anyone know if they are reflective? If so, it may be nice to have around my bike frame for added storage and safety.
what’s wrong with the product? is it of flimsy quality? falling apart? broken zippers?
@username my quick scans of amazon leads me to believe the biggest problem is that they say it fits up to size 50, when in reality is is more like 36.
@thismyusername We tested it out on a buyer with a 40" waist (with an iPhone 6 Plus in it) and it still had a little room. Size 50 is probably pushing it.
@dave
'Might want to temper the above front page claim to throttle Customer Service contacts.
Unless you’re confident 40-50 inch waists are rare on Mehtizens.… future survey question?
Not that I plan on buying them, but are the zippers white or brown, or both? Different pics show different colors. I’m sure people don’t want to look stupid wearing this thing when it doesn’t match their outfit.
@lichme Valid question. @dave - Are they the black/gray version?
For those asking, the material is super stretchy to fit whatever you jam in there. I was skeptical too but it holds way more than it looks like it can.
@uscpsycho Is it durable? No rips?
@ShotgunX So far so good. I even used it a few times while playing soccer so I could use my phone to track how far I ran and used a chest strap hrm to get calorie burn. Never slipped off or anything.
Caveat is that it might not be the exact same one but it looks identical. Besides, you’re getting 4 which is like a lifetime supply.
Perfect 4-point harness for my Forza gaming chair.
This is hilarious, these cost exactly as much as what the TV ad wants.
@mattelic But for four?
This is a stretch.
The price per is tempting, but really, “as seen on TV?”
And those reviews very fairly spread themselves across the stars - perhaps better (more evenly?) than any I have seen.
I cant believe I just did that.
Three things:
Now my fashion statement in the winter is sweatpants and a sweatshirt. Unless I have a doctors appointment I have to go to- then its fleece leggings and a tunic. I’m thankful leggings are back in style. Even if they weren’t I’d probably still wear them since they are great for a person confined to a wheelchair.

@WTFsunshine Fourth thing- having a garden gnome in your yard means you’re a swinger. I learned that yesterday.
@sammydog01 Along with the plastic flamingos.
@sammydog01 Does it mean the same thing if you have one in your cubicle? Asking for a friend, ha ha…
@sammydog01 I have a gnome that says “Go Away”. So I think I’m safe against being a swinger but I definitely didn’t know that that’s what it meant.
@WTFsunshine I love your name!
@mfladd Danke, Gracias, Merci, Much Obliged, Thank You ✌
I bought workout shorts with stretchy pockets for a reason.

@mflassy
Can it hold a 9mm and a couple magazines?
@Kevfin Maybe Reader’s Digest but I wouldn’t try to fit a Vogue in there.
@Kevfin It can, bit you’ll never get a chance to use them since everyone will just surrender right away to make time for laughter.
Why?
@Furbdog I use something similar for running so I don’t have a phone, keys, and my inhaler flopping around bangin against my “man bits”. Works great with BT headphones, and is tight enough to keep all my loose items tight and not tossing around.
I have one of these! They’re great for working out. Especially paired with Bluetooth earphones.
Is the picture of the guy with the passport a joke?

Anyone else rub one out to the chick on the bike? Yummy, even with the fanny pack!
Think it’s time to go home. One weekend back in Minnesota can make a man’s testicles shrivel up. People of Walmart is true, here.

This might be good for kids at amusement parks. No, not to keep the kids, in, but for the kids to keep their cell phones.
@woo545 That is why I am buying them. Keys Cell Phones, etc…
@woo545 That was another thought I had. No worries about stuff falling out of pockets when upside down.
@woo545 I hadn’t thought of that. They give me their phones to hold and then I can’t reach them. I guess they could hide them under their shirts?
