I tried several other belts but couldn’t find one to hold everything I need in the way I need it until this one. The loops for gels are truly genius and alleviate my biggest struggle (how to get out my gels mid run quickly and easily).
The zipper pocket is truly waterproof and sweat proof and keeps my phone completely dry despite the gallons of sweat I produce during a run.
The zippered pocket also has a key ring clip and a back pocket, which is where I put my license and credit card if needed. That pocket for me typically houses keys, license/credit card, iPhone, collapsible dog water dish and sometimes an extra gel depending on how long the run is/how many gels are needed. Point being, the pocket is perfectly spacious. It also zips easily to keep everything secure inside.
I also love that it has a clip closure which allows me to lock in the hand loop of my pup’s leash when he runs with me for a hands-free run with him without needing to buy a special running harness.
As if all that isn’t enough, it also allows for different body sizes since it’s adjustable and it’s high quality/well made. It really has everything and is the absolute best running belt out there!

Bought an Endorphin Belt before my marathon last weekend and honestly it exceeded expectations. I had been using a running vest for most of my training, but after switching to this belt I haven’t gone back for my normal runs.

The setup is simple but really well thought out. Phone pocket in the front, bottle in the back, no bouncing, no weird shifting, and it feels super secure even over long distances. The quality stood out immediately too. It feels durable enough for everything from daily training miles to full marathon use.

One of the coolest parts was meeting the owners at the expo before the race. Super kind people, genuinely passionate about running, and then the next day I saw them out on the course cheering runners on. That kind of thing sticks with you.

I seriously hope these guys blow up because the product deserves it. It solved the exact problem I wanted solved without overcomplicating things.

Only suggestion I’d throw out there would be offering multiple bottle size options if they don’t already. I could see different runners wanting different capacities depending on distance or heat.

For me though, this thing has been fantastic. I’ll probably still use a vest for really long unsupported trail runs, but for the majority of my runs, this belt is now my go-to.

I don’t really think it can get better than this! I use to run with the Flipbelt and I was miserable during my half marathon when I loaded all my stuff into it, it not only felt on the bulkier side, but it would not stay on my hips, it kept sliding down.
The endorphin belt even when filled up, feels light and it doesn’t budge! PERFECT! If you are on the fence, try it, you won’t be disappointed, in fact, you will be pleasantly surprised.
Please make in different colors :)

I was initially disappointed in the phone pocket design, feeling the keys and phone were forced into the outside pocket divider. As I used it on several runs, I realized the phone was on the inside divider of the pouch and this was working as needed. In Louisiana in the summer, after three hours of running everything is soaked with sweat, so this belt does its job in keeping my phone protected from the external moisture, weather rain or sweat. The belt elastic could be a little longer. When watching the YouTube videos on how to adjust the belt, it was only applicable to small thin people. I'm 6'7" and 250 libs, with a 37" waist. There was no excess length on the belt and it fell off on the first run due to not enough length to secure it through the buckles. I used some safety pins to secure the short tail of the belt. The water, storage side is ok. I'm used to at least two water bottles and this holds one soft bottle, and not easy if it's loaded with ice and water. It's ok, but now I still carry my water elsewhere in a hydration vest. For me it's an easy accessory belt for phone, keys, snacks on every run. I access my phone for photos a lot on various cross city runs. The phone divider now seems well designed with a wrap over design that protects the phone well and works pretty good on the move.

This belt is probably the best on the market
