Jemmy Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I've searched and searched but cannot find any reference to how big the pockets are? I normally carry a shoulder bag with my things in it, but I'm moving to running a bit more and the bag bouncing against me throws me off. I also have an overly large mobile phone that I need to fit in - there's no point in me buying the walkie belt if my phone won't fit. For reference my phone is about 16 x 8cm TIA!

The phone pocket is a bit small, especially if you have a cover on the phone. And I was putting a smaller iphone in it. I really like these belts - http://www.spibelt.com.au/ They stretch out to take your stuff. Edited April 20, 2015 by JulesP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jemmy Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 Ooo, those look great Jules - I've sent them an email just to check that my stupidly large phone will fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The elastic belt means it fits firmly too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just looking at amazon UK for this product... http://www.amazon.co.uk/DOOG-WB005-Walkie-Belt-Black/dp/B001DDLIFY Feel it might be a bit small for an iphone which I have. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddy Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I bought a Doog belt a while back and have only ever used it once. The pockets were tiny and difficult to get into and it seemed really bulky for something that carries so little. As daggy as they are, a normal bumbag would probably be better value for money.

JulesP Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I've got one of the little DOOG bags too and I use that more than the bigger one. Wouldn't fit a big phone in it but it is good for keys and poo bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stressmagnet Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I've got one. I like it. Just fits my iPhone with a Speck case on it - so I'm thinking it would not suit you. I do enjoy clipping my keys; carrying my phone, treats, poo bags and wet wipes all in one place instead of scattered in various pockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaCC Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) I have a DOOG walkie belt, and it only JUST fits my iPhone 5s with a basic silicone cover on it in the biggest pocket. I do use it all the time for running/jogging though as it does do it's job of not bouncing around. If I'm walking I will just use a bigger Black Dog bait bag if need be. I saw on their facebook page that DOOG did just bring out a shoulder bag, perhaps look into that? Edited April 20, 2015 by LisaCC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliwake Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 This is same/similar to the one I have - it's very good! My phone doesn't fit in my doog one. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Unisex-Running-Bum-Bag-Travel-Handy-Hiking-Sport-Fanny-Pack-Waist-Belt-Zip-Pouch-/271740526933?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&var=&hash=item3f44ff6155 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weasels Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I haven't used my doog belt in years, wasn't practical. I just wear cargo pants, and cargo shorts when I used to run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Gifts Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I got a pink girly one and was frustrated because it doesn't cope with my shove everything in technique. Not long after Aldi had those fishing bum bags and I bought a couple of those. Pockets fit all your goodies - keys, phones, tissues, lip balm, treats, poo bags, and were a fraction of the price. OK so they are not as pretty.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staffyluv Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I have a doog belt and it is OK for a quick walk around the block but the pockets are small. I prefer my K9 Pro dog Link - my iPhone fits perfectly in the front pocket. Treats and ball in the main pocket and keys in the back pocket.
