Default Armband for Xperia Arc

Hello everyone, I like running a lot and usually have my phone with me for listening to music and GPS tracking with Sports Tracker App.
I am looking for an armband that will fit the Arc so I can have it with me now that due to the summer coming will be wearing t-shirts mostly when running. (Until now I usd to carry it in my jacket's pocket.)

The armband should let the 3.5mm jack open so I can plug in my headphones.
Can you suggest one?
Thank you.
- Sony Xperia Arc | Fusion Kernel | CyanogenMod 10 FXP
- iPad 16GB White 4th Gen WiFi
- Motorola Milestone | CyanogenMod 7

Default why not make your own

I know this might be tacky, but why not make you own; from an old sock.
If you have an old sock, with a long top part (the one that extends to the calf), you may cut it at the ankle, fold it inwards half-way. Stitch from the fold up to the edge (two rows wide apart to fit the phone in the middle), and voila!
Wear the "armband" up your arm (with folded side to the bottom). Insert you phone inside the pocket created with the stitching.

MacGyver would be proud of the sock idea tho.

There's a form fitting one for the arc over at Amazon. Been pondering about getting one for myself. [LINK]

That one you found on amazon looks to be better quality than the one I found on eBay. If you do get one be to post a review here.

Yeah try order online from those China sellers in ebay. Its cheap so buy several until u find the one u love lol.

Anyway im using my old Nike's for MP3 player, its a hard fit, but it stretch well and keep the phone steady. As long as it works i guess

I presume you already received yours. How is running with it? Does it hold the Arc well enough? Which one did you order by the way, have you any link on Ebay yo it?
