Specialist ID Ultimate Military Armband ID Badge Holder - Heavy Duty Nylon I.D Card Holder with Two Adjustable Elastic Bands - Made in The USA (Black)

This armband has lasted way longer than I expected it to. Very durable. I use it to hold an access badge on my arm while riding my motorcycle to open the gate at work.

I ride a motorcycle and work in a prison. Every morning and evening I need to show my ID as I come and go through the main vehicle entry. I got tired of trying to fish my ID out of my pockets with my gloves on and dropping my ID, or rolling up to the check point and removing my gloves to get at my ID. One of the guards suggested an armband so I did a search on Amazon and found this armband. I have been using it daily for several months now and love it. The check point guards have commented on how they like it too. My only "complaint" is, I wish it was easier to get the ID in and out. The velcro is VERY strong - a good thing ... but I need to removed the ID to carry in with me and the put it back in the holder at the end of the day before I ride home. I may try to modify it with some kind of tab to make it easier to open up, but this is a very minor complaint, I really love this thing, it has made entering and exiting the institution easier and quicker too. It is very well made and the two adjustable elastic straps work very well, it doesn't move, slip or blow around at all! I am very happy with this purchase.

It would’ve been ideal if closure is made of rubberized zipper that seals it from water incursion instead of Velcro that makes it cumbersome to open one handed. I tend to keep my DL and one or 2 CCs in there too.

So far, so good! 1st impression after about a week:✓ sturdy construction, quality materials✓ functions as advertised✓ does what I expected it to do for meThis is a great tool for IDs and passes with visible or proximity components. I have to key in to my parking area with a proximity key while riding a motorcycle. Having my ID on my arm, rather than on a lanyard inside my jacket, has made a great difference in ease and safety. No more one handed fumbling while balancing the bike. Once inside, I need ID visible "above the waist," so I am covered there as well.Strong hook/loop closure means popping the ID in/out is not feasible. I swap to a lanyard once at my desk for practicality, and leave the arm band with my riding gear. Read other reviews to confirm: this is not the item you want for all day use if you are frequently handling your ID. Fantastic product when used as intended.I anticipate the elastic wearing out in the next six-eight months, wrinkling the straps and eventually requiring replacement in about a year. My use is almost exclusively outdoor, though, so your mileage may vary.

If you wear this for work everyday, eventually it just ruins whatever you put inside it. Use with caution but it is comfy nonetheless.

This armband is extremely helpful when at the shooting range. I don't like wearing ID cases or anything unnecessary around my neck, and I no longer have to bother with digging my ID/qualification card out of my wallet when asked to show it because now I wear it on my sleeve. It's on display for all to see. Love the easy access.

This product is excellent help and ease to work. Now I can continue holding things with my hands and don't have to worry about leaving what was carried on one side while using the ID at work. Just show my arm and continue doing my job. Bit of a trouble with the Account Area in Amazon because they made a mistake when processing the authorization for the payment twice, on two different days. This error cost me not having the money available until the system solved the issue. I am concerned because the same thing happened with other products bought afterwards. I hope Amazon deals and solve this problem they have in the Account Area because it can bring other legal consequences with not so calm clients soon!

I use this product to store my parking access card when I take out my motorcycle. Instead of fumbling around in my pockets, losing precious time while the door closes, I just tap and go. The badge holder is sturdy enough to withstand all kinds of bad weather and the Velcro seals the card inside safely, no need to worry about losing it. A nice, affordable solution to a minor annoyance.
