It’s brilliant, I am someone who hates stuff in my pockets, I have tried the arm phone holders, nothing compares.

Bought this as a gift for my friends birthday. They sent the wrong one but when I emailed them they got back to me quickly and offered a solution. They have followed up and kept their offer. So excellent service.

I first saw this on an online running club and thought the reviews must be too go to be true but I was wrong!
I didn’t like wearing a rucksack and a bumbag just irritated me, having my phone and key in my pocket made me feel lopsided.
I saw this and did a bit of research and was convinced enough to buy it. Now, I’m a big girl but it fits me and perfectly as the straps at the side are adjustable. The straps are wide enough to be comfortable and don’t chafe. My iPhone SE fits with plenty room to spare in the phone pocket. My car key fits into the shoulder zip and there is another pocket for gels. This harness does not move when I’m running. It has solved all my little problems.
My running buddy is now buying one on my recommendation. I love it!
Tracey S.
The best buy since I started running a few years ago. Always wanted to carry my phone but it was too awkward. The vest is very comfortable and it I don't notice that I'm carrying the phone. High quality material also.
Claire R.
I ordered the VR but got sent the black one instead as this was out of stock. I wasn't consulted on this at aIl, and instead was just sent a different item; the black vest. I was later emailed to say you had sent out the black vest and gave me some options, including the offer of a 75% reduction on the VR vest when it is back in stock, or send the black vest back at my inconvenience. I took the offer of the 75% reduction (although essentially I am spending more money with you), but haven't been given this voucher and had to instead provide evidence of purchase (order number etc) and sign up to notifications for when the VR vest is back in stock. Not ideal and a very hands off approach.
Customer
Really good product. Fits and works well. Had ordered a reflective model but was sent a black one, though I'm assured a significant discount will be given for the ordering of that model once it is in stock. Would recommend product.
Horland R.
I was a skeptic before I received this as a gift. I must say I love it. No iPod/phone/keys etc banging around in pockets distracting me anymore. I don’t have to struggle to get my phone out while running as you can control phone from the front through the pouch. I have a zip pocket on my leggings but you can feel whatever you put in there when you run. This vest is so much better.
Sarah L.
Love it! The free train VR vest is so comfortable - not tight or restrictive around your chest at all but also so secure that you can’t feel it when running! I carry my phone keys gels.... it’s so lightweight I can’t tell I’m wearing it! I won’t run without it now!! Amazing bit of kit!!
gillian h.
Love the free train vest , so comfortable too.
Sarah P.
Fit's perefectly, I was worried it would feel restrictive, but it doesn't at all. My phone (iPhone 7 ) fit's perfectly in the pocket, and I can take a key in the vest also. So all round win win.
Beverley W.
I purchased this as started runnin. Couldnt stand phone in pocket baning around. So seen the freetrain which is ideal and feels safe and secure, love the phone holder on it. I did order the silver one but sent this, I could of returned but wanted to start using it straight away, and am glad I did. So get one you want be sorry.
Neil L.
Great for running can access my phone easily looks good
Great product
Will be buying the VR version when back in stock
Martyn H.
Honestly this works. You see products that look good on TV then you get one and are disappointed. It fits very comfortably and securely holds my car key and phone.
Simple yet extremely effective.
M Hendry
Sarah H.
Love the vest. Very comfortable, I would recommend
Ben W.
Wish I had got one sooner, you dont even know its there, gone are the days of having a big bulky phone strapped to your arm
Mikala R.
Really great product. Comfy and hardly notice it when running. Great customer service as well.
AMANDA I.
I ordered the hi-viz but the plain black was delivered and I was told the hi-viz was out of stock. However, I have been promised if I keep the black I can get a major discount on the hi-viz when it eventually comes back in stock so just waiting for that to happen now. Love having my phone to hand, just really could do with the hi-viz for the dark evenings and murky days
Claire W.
This product is excellent. I'm not a fan of armbands so previously held my phone in my hand. This product does exactly what its name suggests - it gives you the freedom to train.
It's comfortable to wear, it's protects against the elements and it makes accessing your phone really easy when you want to check in on progress or set a timer. This has been a game changer for me.
Petra H.
a great item, especially for larger ladies, feels comfortable to run in, you forget it is there. Just waiting on lights and the VR to be back in stock.
Helen G.
Amazing piece of kit. I was sick of running belts slacking off during runs I decided to invest in this. I need to take my inhaler with me & like to have my phone for music so this is perfect
Lisa P.
Absolutely love this piece of running equipment and wouldn’t be without it now
Natasha N.
Exactly what I needed!
Nicholas D.
Just as described.
Customer
Comfy, easy to use
Chris D.
Using with S8 in a case so quite a tight fit but works well - best approach to the problem I've come across - barely moves and you wouldn't know you were wearing it !
Ellie J.
Quick delivery and very good quality. Bought it for my husband as a gift, he loves it.
Dan E.
Really great fit, I was worried my phone would move about but it sits really tight and doesn’t bounce against my body at all. I also don’t have to worry about not being seen which is great.
Gemma C.
Bought as a gift so far so gd
Mr G.
Brilliant bit of kit. No more carrying the phone no more letting it slap in my pocket and weighing me down.
Vicky H.
Bought as a Christmas present for my other half - he loves it! Very comfortable.
Christine R.
Love this! Running is so much more comfortable, would not go without it.
Aysha M.
Love this product. Phone slides in the front which can clip out, making it easy to check messages and start/stop running tracker app. Can carry keys and another small item as well which is really helpful. Used to use arm band but didn’t like how it felt like it was compressing my arm. This product is fitted to me but not tight or uncomfortable at all.
m l.
Its a Christmas present so cant really answer your q!
Carol M.
It was bought as a Christmas as yet unopened as Christmas is in a few days time! The product was as described and arrived on time
Sandra B.
Purchased for my granddaughter she was very impressed by it
Paul F.
This is an absolutely brilliant product. My phone (with my running app on & bluetoothing music to my headphones whilst I'm running) stays tight & central on my chest. No more bits & pieces banging & crashing around in pockets etc.
The clasp is solid. It's easy to get into even while running. Even though it is a harness type thing it is not constrictive in any way. I've had three different types of "running belts" and this product is by far the best thing!
Oh yes - it doesn't make your bum look big either!
Iain M.
Really nice quality and works well.
Amanda W.
Did a 10 mile run in it today. Very comfortable and to be honest I couldn’t feel it. Looks good and love that it’s reflective as well.
Niamh B.
Perfect gift for someone who enjoys running or for better running comfort!
Tim N.
Excellent running aid, exactly what I’ve been looking for. My first run with it was a 10km pb
MARK H.
This is my second free train as the Velcro on my first had worn out
The phone holder is slightly smaller as I had to take the cover off my iPhone 8 Plus which I didn’t have to on the previous one
The zip feature on the left of the free train is a welcome addition and is still as comfortable as ever with two marathons planned this year it will be getting a lot of use
Joan G.
Arrived in a few days, excellent service. Bought it for my daughter as a present.
Ann G.
Really pleased bought it as a xmas gift
yvonne w.
Brought for Christmas present so really can’t say what it is like
JOHN F.
Great bit of kit but not waterproof.
Max P.
Absolutely brilliant product! Got both editions they are that good!
Nicola D.
It’s great I no longer have to run with a phone and keys in my hand plus I’m a lot safer on the road with the reflectors in winter!
LOUISE M.
Bought for my partner....he loves it saying it's much more comfortable than a running belt with addition of being seen at all times. He now wants another to take away to our caravan for his runs there!
caroline B.
Bought two of these - one for me and one for my partners son. His is for Xmas .We both run - I’ve worn mine without him seeing. Used to have an arm band for my phone for trail running- the free train vest is a total game changer for me- it’s solid, comfortable & no slipping and it’s there for me to check my stats when I need - awesome bit of kit
Christopher M.
Super visible, comfortable and easy to get a great for , lights clip on easily too
Dawid M.
Bought as a christmas present, the material is of very good quality and looks really nice.
Lynette C.
Great piece of training kit, provides a more comfortable run
David R.
Fantastic product. Great quality and very comfortable to wear whist running any distance.
Alexandra L.
Comfortable fit with good adjustment straps. Waterproof cover for phone so can still use when out running in the rain.
Victoria H.
Great product. Comfortable to wear. Fits my phone if I take the case off. Love that it is reflective.
Arrived quickly.
My only concern is that the material that the popper is on may come away if opened too much as it doesn’t look very strong.
MR R.
One of the best well made running aids you can buy.
Highly recommended.
Darral M.
Good useful and how convenient. Keeping you safe at night.
David R.
Extremely reflective which I team up with the Freetrain mini lights (white and red). I've also got the black vest which doesn't have the adjustable bands, I use this one in the spring/summer. I am very happy with my Freetrain vests and I would highly recommend
Customer
I can't tell you anymore as it is a Christmas present to someone - so they won't see it until Christmas day.
Gill W.
Love the vest - lights me up in the dark, carries my phone and allows me to use the phone and run together. I attach my gloves top it when hands warm up. Great piece of kit :)
Kath G.
Really easy to use & love it when running - I can even fit my ipod in and my phone, which is fab!
Nathan N.
All round great service.
Arthur D.
Very comfy with perfectly sized pockets.
VR is very reflective for your safety.
Once you have put it on you don't notice it is there. I have a very large phone and it just fits in the pocket.
Customer
So good for running on dark winter nights. Just perfect for phone, keys and cash. Bought one for myself and one for a friend.
Debra B.
The best purchase ever. Love my free train vests. Running is so much easier having this to put my phone in and keys. I see people looking, wandering, I love that vest. I see so many people holding their phones to run. How uncomfortable that must be. I feel like shouting’ Get a free train vest’. Great quality and a reasonable price. I wouldn’t be without it.
Anthony C.
Best running vest out there
Amanda P.
Well happy. Can't feel the running vest at all when I'm running. Just had to trial it to get the correct tension around chest area. All sorted now.
Annette F.
Bought as a xmas gift for my daughter so cannot give any real feedback until she uses it. However it looks well made and stylish so I am happy with my purchase.
Sarah D.
Already have the black one which I love, purchased this just because ♀️ And thought it might be ideal for window with it being reflective when out running in the dark mornings
Damien H.
I have just upgraded to the new iPhone 12 Pro Max and I was aware it could be a tight fit given the Max size, but had confidence given the website says it fits 99+% of current smart phones. Whilst it does just about fit in, it is very snug and any condensation (from body heat etc) means it is very tough to get out as the plastic cover sticks to the screen with very little leeway either side to pull the phone out. Not a criticism, as it's much better than an armband, but just a consideration.
Jo R.
It’s my 2nd one as i have 2 homes and wanted 1 in each for my daily runs. I would not be without this - a fantastic buy. I especially like the grey one as it’s reflective. ✨⭐️
Harry P.
Love this so much however on longer sweaty runs I’ve noticed sweats starts to activate the touchscreen on my phone through the screen protector and skip/fast forward songs.
Also DO NOT put in tumble dryer. I’m on my 3rd one after forgetting this and melting off the Velcro tab.
Amazing product though and strongly recommend the reflective one especially this time of year. Looks sick with matching hat too
Billy M.
Practical, comfortable and all round great product. Would highly recommend 10/10
Kieran M.
Excellent piece of kit..comfortable and great storage for key and phone with easy access to both..
Kerry B.
love it, really good to have on and know I haven't got to keep my phone in my hand the whole time. I can run free! Also good that it is reflective as I run a lot at night and early mornings in the dark.
James D.
For version 2, it would be great to have a clear window on the front to enable a photo to be taken without having to take it out of the pocket each time.
Also bigger pockets please for keys, gels, snacks etc
Lastly the velcro fold could be a bit wider to minimise water ingress in heavy rain.
Thanks J
Megan M.
Great product. I don’t know I’m wearing it, fits great, really comfortable over my chest/boobs. Would recommend!
Saqlain B.
Excellent item. Very comfortable and phone fits excellently. Lights reflect on it to very well.
Daniel M.
Much more convenient and comfortable than the phone holders that wrap around the arm. Like the reflective sections, which come in especially handy during early morning winter runs.
Would highly recommend!
Andrea W.
Bought as a gift
Joao G.
Wouldn’t know where I would be without it. Amazing bit of kit. I’ve got an IPhone 7 and it’s tight on that it’s well built and stays nice tight whilst you run
John N.
Very comfortable to use and it's practical .
Customer
Absolutely in love with this bit of kit! It’s incredibly comfortable and I was so impressed with the quality - its fantastic value for money! I never run without it now!
Nahum M.
Great product but only thing I don’t like about it is that I have to remove my iPhone 11 Pro from its protective case. If not, it takes a little time to a slot it in as plastic on plastic prevents from sliding in smoothly. I use the VR vest for running and cycling. I like to take photos while on cycle trek but as stated, have to be careful when removing the phone if not in its Tech21 case. Apart from this minor issue, I love the VR vest.
Aaron B.
Decent bit off kit.. should have bought sooner.
Reflects bright on the night runs
Ryan H.
Great vest, would definitely recommend to others. UK Buyer :)
Lauren A.
Perfect product to get me out running again!
Thomas H.
Absolutely love my vest. Comfortable and affordable. Wear it for every run!
Jacqui D.
only suitable for men or small chested women.
Rose B.
the BEST thing I've bought this year, so much better than having a running belt bouncing about round your middle.
fits my phone perfectly and improved the comfort and ease of going out running!
would recommend to anyone!
Keiley D.
Easy to use and helps that it’s reflective
Eddie H.
Great piece of kit, for a lot more activities than just running.
Well designed , thought out and with the versatility to adapt to different types of phones.
Other storage well thought out and suitable for keys, gels and other small items
Tom M C.
The quality is great and after five minutes you can’t even tell you have it on ♂️.
jayne g.
Brilliant for all activities
Scott C.
Haven’t try wear on so will wear it someday
Antoine R.
Nice addition to the kit for nighttime runs, easy to use the phone apps while running, even with gloves.
Easy to adjust and it didn’t cause any rubbing issues on longer runs either.
The key stash pocket is a bit small, as I can only fit 3 keys in it (and not the key chain), but they’re held securely in place nonetheless.
