SL3S Running Belt Review

A few months ago I was offered the SL3S Water Resistant Dual Pocket Run Belt to try out for free and share my review. Well, I haven't been so great about blogging or running so it has taken me a while to try this belt out enough times for me to really offer an opinion on it. The belt has 2 pockets which I like because you can separate any fuels you may carry from your phone, just in case. It's supposed to be water resistant, but I didn't try it in the rain so I can't vouch for that. I'm more of a fair weather runner :)  The belt is adjustable which is great to help accommodate a variety of sizes. I found the belt couldn't adjust super small which could be an issue for really tiny runners. I'm about a 26 waist and the belt was a little loose on me. I found it more comfortable to slide it around and have the pockets in the rear as can be seen in the below picture.

Overall, I liked the belt. I have a similar belt from Spibelt, except the Spibelt only has one pocket. I used the Spibelt when I trained for a half marathon a few years ago. I think the SL3S belt is on par with the Spibelt for those of you who may be familiar with their belts. Both are great options for holding your phone/keys/fuel during runs.

Disclosure: I received this item for free, but all opinions are my own.
