This is Stone right after he got his pump - December 2009... age 2.
We love his SPIbelt for his diabetic pump and we know he does as well. Stone is very protective of his SPIbelt. He has a twin sister Addie who has tried a few times to "touch" his "rocket booster pack" but isn't allowed close enough even though they share a room and are together all the time!!
Thank you so much for making this a little easier to deal with on a day to day basis. It cleans beautifully, holds up well, and stays on!!! He has never tried to take it off, which says a lot for a 2 year old. He must find it comfortable too!
THANK YOU!

I very much enjoy Skydiving. I purchased my SPIbelt in Tulsa OK where Carolyn, my wife, was going to run a half marathon. I saw it and told myself, “What a great way to keep my valuables."
I just ordered two more, one for the wife & one for my father-in-law who is a walker.

My wife and I purchased the SPIbelt at the Utica Boilermaker Expo. After the Boilermaker we went out and competed in the Ironman Lake Placid in July and Ironman Wisconsin in September. For Ironman events you have to carry a lot of stuff whether it is on the bike or run. There are not a lot of pockets in tri-suits so you have to make sacrifices. With the SPIbelt you don’t have to. The belt expands to hold your gels, your endurolytes, your pretzels, you name it. I also like that it doesn’t bounce around. You really forget you are wearing it after a while.
Thanks for providing such a great product.

Love your product!
I bought a SPIBelt at the Health Expo when I picked up my race packet for the One America Mini Marathon in Indianapolis. I LOVE it! I "test drove" it during the race. I could fit my phone, Energy Gel pack, keys, and drivers license/credit card into the SPIBelt. So, I'm buying a couple for friends of mine. Great product!

I just ran my first Half Marathon last week at the 2009 Knoxville Marathon. The day before I met Jill with Spi Belt and I purchased one. I had heard of the product on NBC and felt it would be perfect for my running workouts. I used my new Spi Belt on my marathon and loved it! It's so comfortable I forget it's there.
Thanks for a great product.

Hi, I just wanted to write a quick note to tell you how much I LOVE my SPIbelt. It works perfect for my insulin pump when I workout, and ride my horses. I just stick it in, and off I go. It is sleek, and so comfortable to wear. What a great item, and I will be ordering more in the future!! Thank you.

Hi Kim,
I hope that your new year is starting off well! I have just returned from India, and have three pictures for you with the SPI belt! It was FANTASTIC: I carried my rupees and credit card (and driver's license, bank card, and insurance card) in it and it was great. Here are the pictures to prove it! Thanks again for making such a great product, and may your 2009 bring you and your company great happiness and continued success, jennifer nelson p.s. all three pictures were taken in Saputara, Gujarat, India

The best accessory I have purchased in a long long time. It really does work, it does not bounce at all. I purchased it at the Seattle Marathon Expo. The sales person was very helpful.

WOW!
Hard to believe just how roomy and light weight the spibelt is! I was very worried about the stereo typical "fannie pack", but this is not even in the same category.
I went out for a run with my spibelt, filled it with my phone, keys, credit cards, and cash. I never once remembered that I was wearing it. When I finished my run, I forget to even take it off until I was ready to shower.
I will be recommending this to everyone at home and work (flight attendant). We're always looking for a place to store that dreaded room key when we're working out.
This is by far the best invention I've seen in a very long time......just wish I would have thought of it first!
Thanks again,
Brenda P.

My Daughter used her Green Spibelt all summer last year and it worked great at the beach. I have attached some photos of her with it on from that wonderful vacation. I never worried about her loosing her insulin pump or any of her supplies.
We discovered you from the Children with Diabetes web site. I am sure I speak for many of the nice people on that forum and thank you for taking our suggestions to make packs for our children!!
Thanks,

Just wanted to let you know that I received my daughter's spibelt today! I ordered it Thursday hoping it would be here in time for Christmas and it is. I cannot wait for her to open it! Also, I cannot remember who I spoke with when I placed my order, but she let me know about the discount since it is for my daughter's pump, and she got our belt that day! Your product and your customer service is top notch! I look forward to placing another order with you soon!
Thanks,

I purchased my first SPIBelt in San Diego at a marathon (watching my daughters run). I am a diabetic and this was (and still is) fantastic for me. I love my belt and this is how I wear my insulin pump to bed at night. I have several colors and would not want to be without my SPIBelt.
Also I have never experienced such great customer service!

My 7 year old son has Type 1 diabetes and has worn an insulin pump for almost 6 years. He just received his spibelt and it works great as a pump pack. It holds it close to his body for less bounce when he runs and plays. It looks more "big boy" also.
A friend of mine owns Fleet Feet Annapolis and he had given me a pink plaid kids sample (which of course my son would not touch) but I gave it to a 7 year old girl with an insulin pump and her mom says she loves it for dance and soccer.
Thanks for making the kids' pack and giving us a great option for the insulin pumps for our kids. Of course now I will get one to carry my phone on my runs since having a child with diabetes.
I can't go without it.

I bought 2 spibelts at the Big Sur Half Marathon this November, one for me and one for my husband. My husband is very picky about things moving around and bouncing while he is running. So I thought I would have him try the spibelt.
He came back from his run and said "finally a product that actually does what it is supposed to do!"
Needless to say he will be using his spibelt as he trains for Vineman in Sonoma, CA in August....thank you

I purchased a belt and the Detroit FreePress Marathon Expo over the weekend. I love my belt. I had a small pack called a 5-k that I used before but one of the clips fell off.
I then purchased another pack that is more suitable for hiking than running. But the SPI-belt is great for running. It held my phone plus flip camera and 5 GU's. It never moved or bounced. I also attached my race # to it using the clips and it worked perfectly. Three cheers !!!

I wanted to tell you guys how much I love my belt. I just bought it last Saturday before my very first half marathon the following morning. I was a bit nervous because I wasn't going to have time to try it out on a training run. I was great and didn't slip or ride up, just as promised.
I'd been looking for weeks and had tried other belts, but couldn't find one I liked. What an awesome belt you have.
Thanks,
Dawn

I've had my Spibelt for over a year now and it's held up great. Having the clips to attach my race number to the belt really helped. I wish you the best with this clever, simple, but very useful product!

I've run 5 marathons (best time 4:03) done Ironman Florida 2007(13:37) and countless tris all while wearing my SPI belt. I was done wearing the bulky, weighted bags to carry essentials. They always bounced, and ended up causing some bad rashes, too. When I found the SPI belt at the Austin Tri Expo - it was love at first wear!
Just wanted to say a big "thank you" for coming up with such a simple, yet effective product for athletes!
A true fan,

I am brand new to running. This was only my second run but I was already going crazy with trying to find something small and expandable enough to hold my stuff and then I saw Spibelt!She's running for the cause. Feel free to help her raise $5K for the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer next weekend.

I saw an add in Triathlete Magazine for the SPIBELT and knew it was an immediate solution for me. It is exactly as it was described in the on-line add. I would and will recomend this item to any runner, triathlete, or fitness person out there!!! You have a great item Kim!!!

I bought a SPIbelt at the Gasparilla Race festival. It allows me to carry my cell phone, gels and even some spare cash. My husband loved it, and tried to take it from me, finally got one at a recent expo... he's amazed on how much it holds... phone, money, glucose meter.. Thanks for such a great find!

"I have been running for over 25 years and I feel that this is the best product I have ever used in relation to my running. I carry snacks and homeopathic remedies as well as other necessary items used during a half or full marathon. I told all my friends about the product and in fact 5 of my friends purchased your product at the expo. Just letting u know what a great product you have designed. The whole time I was running I never even noticed that I had the belt on."

My husband purchased the spibelt at the Utica Boilermaker Expo after watching how well the belt stayed in place without bouncing around and the expandability that the belt provided to store. After a race my husband had run my brother commented on his belt that he liked the sleekness of it and would like one for Christmas that year. Another belt sold. My daughter just began running and the spibelt began to disappear from my husbands running gear. She had begun using it rather than other bulky cell phone holders that banged on her hips. And so, we bought another belt. The family can't praise this product enough.

I bought my SPIbelt right before the Walt Disney World Marathon weekend and used it(like many of my teammates did) for both races that weekend. The belt was so lightweight that I forgot that I was wearing it! It held my cel phone, shock blocks, mp3 player, etc. It's a must have for every race now! It's also great to put snacks, park passes, cel phone, and some cash in it for when you are visiting the Disney parks and you don't want to get weighted down with a bag.
I am 46 and recently put on an extra 6-8 pounds all in my legs. I have always had trouble keeping my legs thin and free of cellulite....even when I was skinny and ran track in high school. I used to do weighted work outs when I was younger, but it seemed to make my legs appear bigger with a bulky muscle underneath my layer of fat. I probably stopped in my late thirties and switched to video workouts and yoga to supplement my outdoor activites.
I have resold almost every video after doing them only once or twice and hating them. But Love Your Legs is almost enjoyable and after only 4 workouts and daily massage, my legs are looking better. The workout is challenging enough for now, but easy to fit into my schedule. I love Kim's motivational style. While I am appreciative of all instructors who share their knowledge to make us happier people, I am especially grateful to Kim for her putting this video together and giving me hope for the next bathing suit season. After all I live on a lake. Last year I really started to let my embarassment interfere with my fun so....
Thank you again.

“I love my running gear, but it's all pocket-free. That means I always have to leave my car keys at my office. Not anymore.
The S.P.I. (small personal item) Belt [holds] everything from keys to money to a cell phone. And it doesn't flop around.”
