Why Every Runner Needs a No-Bounce Shirt with Waterproof Pockets

The Problem with Carrying Your Phone on a Run

Whether you're training for a marathon or doing a 2-mile jog around the block, chances are you run with your phone. Maybe it's for music. Maybe it’s to track your route. Maybe it’s for safety, in case of an emergency. Whatever the reason — your phone is coming with you.

But how you carry your phone while running? That’s where things fall apart.

Runners are frustrated with:

  • Phones bouncing inside running belts

  • Armbands sliding down sweaty arms

  • Moisture-damaged phones from sweat and rain

  • Bulky vests or pouches that ruin your form

  • The constant distraction of shifting gear

There’s a better way. And it starts with what you wear.

 

 

Enter the No-Bounce Running Shirt with Waterproof Pockets

What if your shirt could securely store your phone, keep it dry, and eliminate bounce altogether? That’s the idea behind no-bounce running shirts — and it’s revolutionizing how athletes train.

More runners are upgrading their gear and ditching extra accessories. Why? Because shirts like the Pock-IT Signature Tee 2.0 combine everything you need into one clean, comfortable solution.

 

 

The Top 5 Reasons You Need a No-Bounce, Waterproof Shirt

1. Say Goodbye to Distraction

With a snug, body-flush pocket, your phone stays still — even during sprints or hill climbs. No more flopping or adjusting mid-stride.

2. Protect Your Tech

Running in heat? Rain? Humidity? A waterproof lining means your phone stays dry and safe, no matter the weather or your sweat level.

3. Improve Your Form

Ditch the belts and bands that tug at your posture. A bounce-free shirt helps maintain your natural stride and rhythm.

4. Streamline Your Gear

No need for accessories. One shirt = storage + performance in a lightweight, breathable design.

5. Look Good. Feel Better.

Minimalist and modern, the Pock-IT shirt comes in sleek colorways that work just as well on the trail as they do running errands after.

 

 

A Story from the Founder: The Frustration That Sparked Innovation

Hi, I’m Jack Miller — the creator of Pock-IT.

As a teenage soccer player in Scotland, I hated running with my iPod bouncing on my arm. At a youth entrepreneur weekend, I had the idea for a shirt with built-in pockets. Years later in college, I made a prototype by sewing an armband into a tee and pitched it at a Shark Tank-style competition.

The prototype worked. I won. But turning that idea into a real product was a grind.

Manufacturers told me the shirt would never work. That it would sag. That phones were too heavy. Then one day, I wrapped an old captain’s armband around the pocket. That was the breakthrough — the elastane cuff that keeps the pocket stable and bounce-free.

I sold my car to fund the first batch of shirts. I messaged runners online. I packed and shipped orders from my college apartment while my parents handled European orders from Scotland. No returns. No ads. Just real runners loving the product.

Fast forward: we now have a patented shirt design, a second-generation tee tested on over 1,000 miles of real runs, and customers in 15+ countries.

 A: Absolutely. The Signature Tee 2.0 was tested on marathon-length runs with zero bounce or moisture issues.

Your Run Shouldn’t Be a Struggle

Too many runners settle for bad solutions: sweaty armbands, bouncing belts, gear that distracts more than it helps.

The Pock-IT Signature Tee 2.0 is more than a running shirt. It’s the result of years of frustration, thousands of miles of testing, and one obsession: helping runners run smarter.

You shouldn’t have to carry your phone. Your shirt should do it for you.
