Product Summary

The SPI Distance Pro is a combination of the Performance PRO SPIbelt and two SPI H2O Companion bottles to easily carry everything you need while you run. SPI claims the Distance Pro is bounce-free. They recommend this belt for all your runs and hikes.

SPI belts are low profile and feature a weather-resistant expandable pocket to keep all your belongings secure while you run. SPI claims the belt is compatible with every phone on the market and can also fit your keys, ID, and more. The elastic on this belt is 50% wider than the Original SPIbelt at 1.5 inches. The belt also has four loops on the elastic band for storing energy gels. The two water bottles are 8 ounces and can clip anywhere onto the belt.

The SPI Distance Pro has limited but positive reviews. Customers love the belt and state that it does not ride up or bounce on their runs. Multiple reviewers shared that it was their favorite running belt and the only belt they would wear on race day. Some users wished they had just purchased the belt and not the water bottles because they had issues with the water bottle leaking. People also had some difficulty getting larger phones to fit into the pocket.
