I'm looking for anyone who has a case for their nano for running that they can recommend.

A few things I'd like to look for:
• one with a clip rather than an armband... living in Sweden, more often than not, running involves a jacket
• can accommodate the Nike+ Sport Kit (I don't have one yet, but am seriously considering it)
• ideally isn't ugly, as I like the design of the nano and few cases really reflect that same design standard (but I can forego this if it meets the other two criteria)

So... anyone with recommendations?

My husband is an endurance runner and sometimes carries an ipod with him. Rather than using a belt clip on cold days he uses a jacket with a strategically placed pocket. I can't find an exact example of the jacket he uses online, but I did find something similar:

I'm also on the hunt for a case with a good belt clip and easy in/out. If I find something I'll post it!

I just got my new nano today and I am seriously considering going caseless. I have an unused Marware clip base (from a Mobility Kit I bought) and I may just stick it on the back of the nano. Then I can easily attach either the belt clip (and maybe clip to my shirt sleeve) or the armband. I have some clear film for my PDA screen which I can cut to fit the nano screen. I won't be running in the rain so I don't need weather protection, and I don't really mind if it gets scratched up a little :eek: as this is what I bought it for. The only problem is that the Marware belt clip weighs practically as much as the nano! :D
