The Shoe Pouch™ was designed by Grantwood Technology, LLC to allow runners and walkers to use the Nike+iPod Sport Kit® or Nike+ SportBand®, (NOTE: the Nike+iPod Sport Kit® and Nike+ SportBand® are each sold separately). Included with this Sport Kit is a sensor that fits inside specially designed Nike® shoes (called Nike+®), which cost around $100 USD. But what about people who currently wear other brands of athletic shoes, including Asics®, New Balance®, Reebok®, Saucony®, or even other Nike® brands? Should they be required to spend another $100 just to have the privilege of using this Sport Kit?
In a word...NO.
When designing the Shoe Pouch™, our primary goal was to ensure a very snug fit. Not only does this minimize the risk of the sensor falling out while exercising, it also allows the sensor to transmit accurate data. Competing products use Velcro® to secure themselves, but a sensor enclosed in such products will tend to bounce up and down when your shoe strikes the ground, and this is what produces inaccurate data.
We took a different approach to securing the Shoe Pouch™ to the outside of your shoe:
