Hy Equestrian Silva Flash Mobile Phone Holder Armband
Description
Hy Equestrian Silva Flash Mobile Phone Holder
The Hy Equestrian Silva Flash Mobile Phone Holder is a reflective neoprene armband that holds your mobile phone securely on your upper arm while you ride. It is made for riders hacking out on roads and tracks who want their phone accessible and protected, and it works just as well for running, cycling and dog walking.
A waterproof plastic cover keeps the screen shielded from the weather while still allowing the phone to be operated inside the pouch, and a separate zip pocket takes a key. Reflective strips add visibility in poor light. Browse more high-visibility riding kit in our hi-vis collection.

FAQ
Will my phone fit in the Silva Flash armband?
The pouch is large enough to take iPhone Plus size phones, so most standard and larger handsets will fit. Measure your phone, including its case, against your own phone's dimensions if you use a thick protective case.
Can I use the phone while it is in the holder?
Yes. The specially designed waterproof plastic cover protects the phone while still allowing it to be used inside the pouch, so you can answer a call or check a map without removing it.
Is it suitable for riding in low light?
The band features reflective strips that help you be seen by other road users. Reflective kit relies on other people's lights to work, so pair it with additional hi-vis layers and lights when visibility is poor.
Will the armband rub on a long hack?
The neoprene fabric is chosen to minimise rubbing and chafing on the arm, and the fully adjustable touch tape lets you set the tension so it stays put without pinching.
Can I carry a key as well as my phone?
Yes, there is a separate zip pocket designed for key storage, which keeps the key away from the phone screen.
Is it only for horse riding?
No. It is designed with hacking in mind but is equally useful for running, cycling, walking and other exercise.
