A running belt lets you bring your phone, keys, and even water on a run while keeping your hands—and pockets—free. A good one does its job with zero bouncing or discomfort. We tested 37 belts and bands to find those you’re likely to notice the least while logging miles. We recommend the SPIbelt Large Pocket for daily runs. If you want an everyday belt with more pockets, we like the Nathan Adjustable-Fit Zipster. The waistband-style Naked Running Band is our pick for runners who need added capacity, and if you want a belt with two water bottles, we think the Nathan TrailMix Plus is the best.
