Choosing your RooSport
What is a RooSport?
A RooSport is a magnetic pocket that clips over the waistband of your leggings, shorts, skirt, scrubs or jeans, so you can carry your phone, keys, cards and energy gels hands-free. There's no belt and no strap. It was designed by a marathon runner and is made in the USA.
Should I get the RooSport Large or the RooSport Small?
Choose the RooSport Large (7.5" × 4.5") if you want to carry a phone of any size, 8–10 energy gels, two EpiPens or a passport. Choose the RooSport Small (6" × 4") for a smaller phone, keys, cards, cash, 4–6 gels or an insulin pump.
Will my phone fit in the RooSport Large?
Yes. The RooSport Large fits every size smartphone, including the largest Pro Max and Ultra models, even with a case. You can carry it standing up or lying down.
Will my phone fit in the RooSport Small?
The RooSport Small fits smaller phones. If you have a standard, Plus, Pro Max or Ultra size phone, or a thick case, choose the RooSport Large.
What else can a RooSport hold?
Keys, credit cards, cash, ID, lip balm, energy gels, sports beans, electrolytes, medications, an inhaler, EpiPens or an insulin pump. The hidden zipper pocket keeps cash and cards secure.
Wearing your RooSport
How does the RooSport attach?
Slip it over your waistband and the hidden magnets click together through the fabric. It stays put until you take it off. No belt, clip or strap needed.
What clothes can I wear it with?
Almost anything with a waistband: leggings, yoga pants, running shorts, capris, skirts, compression shorts, scrubs, slacks and jeans. It's especially handy on clothes that have no pockets.
Does it bounce when I run?
No. Your waistband holds it snug against your body, so it doesn't bounce, even with a phone inside. Runners wear it for full marathons.
Will it pull my shorts down?
Not on fitted athletic wear. If your shorts or skirt are loose and you're carrying something heavy like a phone, tighten the drawstring after putting on your RooSport and it will stay in place.
Can I wear it on the front, side or back?
Yes, anywhere around your waistband. Many runners and cyclists like it at the back.
Can I attach it to a bag, fanny pack or running belt?
Yes. The RooSport adds a pocket anywhere there's an edge of fabric for the magnets to clip over: your waistband, a fanny pack, a running belt, a backpack or a beach bag.
Do I wear it inside or outside my waistband?
It's designed to be worn inside, against your body, which is the most secure and comfortable. You can wear it outside if you're carrying something light.
Does it rub or chafe?
No. The magnets hold it so firmly that it doesn't slide back and forth, and the side against your skin is soft Lycra (spandex).
Magnets and safety
Will the magnets hurt my phone?
No. Today's smartphones have no magnetic hard drive, so the RooSport's magnets don't affect them. Your phone is safe inside.
Will the magnets erase my credit cards or hotel key?
Chip cards and tap-to-pay cards aren't affected. Older cards and hotel keys that rely only on a magnetic stripe can be affected, so keep those in a different pocket.
Can I carry an insulin pump in a RooSport?
Yes, comfortably and discreetly. Place the pump on its side with the tubing at the top and run the tube out through the top of the pocket. The magnets are not double sided, so they do not bother the electronics in your pump. The RooSport is recommended and sold by doctors' offices for their patients.
Can I carry an EpiPen or inhaler?
Yes. An inhaler fits in either size. The RooSport Large holds a two-pack of EpiPens in the main pocket, or one in the outer zipper pocket.
Is the RooSport safe if I have a pacemaker or implanted medical device?
The RooSport uses strong magnets. If you have a pacemaker or other implanted device, ask your doctor before wearing it.
Care and materials
Is the RooSport waterproof?
It's made from waterproof fabric that keeps out sweat and rain, even during a marathon. It isn't designed to go underwater, so it's not for swimming.
How do I wash my RooSport?
Machine wash it and let it air dry.
Where is the RooSport made?
Every RooSport is made in the USA.
Orders, shipping and returns
How fast do you ship?
Orders ship within 2–3 days.
What is your return policy?
You have 90 days to return your RooSport. If you're not happy with it for any reason, email brenda@theroosport.com and we'll make it right.
Do you have a travel wallet?
Yes. The Travel Wally is an RFID-protected hidden travel wallet that attaches with the same magnets. It holds two passports, cash and cards, and weighs only 1.5 oz.
