Abstract: A waistband storage device includes a body portion having an opening for access to a storage compartment, a back plate attached to the body portion, the back plate including a plurality of layers of material arranged to mirror the musculature of a human lower back; and a V-shaped strap attached to the back plate for securing the body portion to a user. The waistband storage device is resistant to slippage during physical activity due to increased friction between the back plate and the lower back.

Abstract: The present invention is an arm pocket attached by “V” configured straps allowing a wearer's arm to comfortably and securely support the pocket worn. A storage body may contain dual flaps extending over the top of the arm pocket when opened, and extending below the arm pocket when unlatched. The pocket can contain a “touch-through” vinyl window to allow portable music player operation without removing the player from the secured arm pocket. Various pocket/strap sizes and hook and loop strap configurations, along with many material compositions suitable for every occasion with added security provided by the compressible split-end strap that fold back over the double-loop sizing device. Utilizing visco-elastic memory foam-type padding sculpted to mirror the arm's natural contours, the arm pocket wearer can also comfortably and securely carry heavy items.
