Freestyle Libre Waterproof Sensor Armband, Alternative to Adhesive Patches for Freestyle Libre (Black)

My Son and Son-in-law both use the Freestyle Libre Sensor. Within a day of getting the 2 week sensor, my Son's unit fell off of his arm. After getting a replacement, he started using tape to hold it in place. While the sensor stayed on his arm, the tape cause several issues, including itching, pulling on the sensor, and being dirty.Initially not liking the idea of the arm band, he wasn't thrilled with this gift from the old man. Today, though, he and his husband love this armband, so much they both have their own unit.They find them comfortable.When it comes to slippage, my suggestion (not yet taken) is to use tape to hold the armband in place instead of continuing to tighten it.For those wondering about size, my Son has 21 (or 22) inch arms and his armband fits just fine. At least, I've not heard any complaints.

I’m not sure if this will prevent the dislodging of the Libre sensor or create but more of a surface area for it to rip out. I dove into the water and my sensor came off, which is why I went looking in the first place. To be very honest, I definitely knew going in, from common sense, that the best thing to keep the sensor in place is one of the various adhesive patches that are widely available including at Walgreens, Rite Aid, and CVS. If the sensor is going to get caught on something, it will get caught on this to.I know that I bought this because it looked cool, like an accessory, not for practicality. I guess I prefer things that look cool rather than look medical.

You know you have it on but forget about it after a while. When putting on a pull over shirt you need to pay attention that you don’t get shirt caught cause then you will also pull on sensor that you were trying to protect. Great for exercise and bicycling in any type of work out will keep your sense of secure I use it he’s of patches for everything else I use adhesive patches plus this band and yes I would buy it again

Very, very happy to find this. Husband just started wearing this sensor and was concerned out knocking it off, before the 14 day wear time was finished. He knocked off a sensor from the back of his arm reaching for something in the backseat of the car. It is soft, lightweight and not at all bulky, looks like a watch strap. Easy to change shirts or t-shirts. In expensive, not a problem in the shower. Dries quickly. Better than any of the tape solutions. Husband wants to order 2 more.

The concept was great but unfortunately my son said it was not comfortable at all. It’s a shame because I spent money on something that he only wore for a day, now what do I do with it? Wish the band was more elastic, with no adjustable plastic piece, just have the plastic casing to snap over the Libre Sensor to keep it in place. There’s a great idea.

Adjustable, the holder face has a very smooth black surface so the holder and band clean easily when I shower and dry fast on my arm, very comfortable, stretchy but strong, no sharp edges or hanging strap ends - I only take it off when changing sensors and no longer “feel” its presence on my arm. Big bonus - no skin irritation and stays up and stays snug, never pulls on the sensor. I’ve tried several of these, this one is the best design by far.

The band is adjustable, which is nice, and it SEEMED like a good idea that it has a silicone piece that is notched to fit snugly around the libre sensor.Unfortunately, though, what happens in the real world is that instead of the band staying firmly in place and keeping the sensor from getting dislodged, the band moves and then dislodges the sensor that is locked into it.

This works like a charm! My husband was forever knocking his sensors off. He has been wearing it over a month. Very comfortable. He has worn it swimming and in the hot tub! He does take it off after to dry, and it dries really fast. Love it!!!
