Phone Pouches & Holders for Sports, Travel and Outdoor Adventures
Your phone goes almost everywhere you do – running, cycling, hiking, travelling and out on the water. Zulupack® phone pouches and holders help keep your device protected, securely attached or within easy reach while you're on the move.
The range includes waterproof phone pouches, phone holders for running and other sports, phone mounts for bikes, motorcycles and scooters, as well as waterproof document pouches. Whether your priority is water protection, quick access or secure mounting, you can choose a solution designed for the way you use your phone.
Waterproof phone pouch or phone holder – which one do you need?
If you want to protect your phone at the beach or while paddleboarding, kayaking, canoeing, sailing or enjoying other activities around water, a waterproof phone pouch is the natural choice. Often also searched for as a waterproof phone case, this type of protective pouch is designed to help keep your device protected from water, dust and sand. Always check the IP rating and specifications of the individual product for its exact level of protection.
For running and other sports, a phone holder may be the more practical solution when quick access and secure carrying matter most. On a bike, motorcycle or scooter, a dedicated phone mount provides a stable attachment point and can keep the screen visible when needed, for example when using navigation.
If you use your phone across several activities, a modular mounting system can offer greater flexibility by allowing compatible components to be combined for different sports and modes of transport.
How to Choose a Phone Pouch, Holder or Mount
The right solution depends on where and how you use your phone. A waterproof pouch designed for activities around water serves a different purpose from a running phone holder or a phone mount attached to a bike. Start with the activity, then consider whether your priorities are water protection, easy access, secure attachment or a combination of these features.
Waterproof phone pouches for watersports and travel
A waterproof phone pouch is a practical choice when you want to protect your phone from water, rain, dust and sand. At the beach or while paddleboarding, kayaking, canoeing, sailing and enjoying other watersports, the complete construction of the pouch – including its closure – is just as important as the outer material.
Waterproof phone pouches are also commonly referred to as waterproof phone cases, although the two terms can describe somewhat different product designs. For Zulupack® products with a flexible protective construction, “phone pouch” is generally the more precise description, while “waterproof phone case” remains a useful term when searching for this type of protection.
The IP rating provides a more precise indication of protection against water and solid particles. Always check the IP rating and usage instructions specified for the individual product, particularly when there is a possibility of significant water exposure or immersion.
Phone holders for running and sports
When running or taking part in other active sports, your phone should remain securely attached without restricting your movement. A suitable running phone holder keeps your device within easy reach for navigation, workout tracking or other functions while allowing you to move freely.
When choosing a phone holder for running or other sports, consider the attachment method, compatibility and how easily you need to access your phone during the activity.
Phone mounts for bikes, motorcycles and scooters
For cycling, motorcycling and scooter riding, phone mount is usually the most useful term. A securely installed bike phone mount can keep your device visible and accessible, making it particularly practical when using your phone for navigation.
Different mounting situations require different solutions. Consider the mounting point, compatibility with your device or case and the correct installation of the system. Always follow the compatibility and usage information provided for the individual product.
Modular phone mounting systems for different activities
If you use the same phone for several sports or modes of transport, a modular system can provide greater flexibility. Compatible Zulupack® phone mounting solutions use the RCT mounting system, allowing different components to work together across a range of activities.
This can make it possible to adapt your setup for running, cycling, motorcycling, scooter riding and other active uses without relying on a completely separate solution for every activity.
Waterproof document pouches for documents and larger essentials
Your phone isn't the only item that may need protection from the elements. When travelling, boating, enjoying watersports or spending time outdoors, documents, maps and other important belongings may also be exposed to water, dust and dirt.
A waterproof document pouch provides space for larger items that would not fit inside a phone pouch. Always check the dimensions, IP rating and intended use of the individual product to make sure it is suitable for what you want to carry.
What does an IP rating mean for a waterproof phone pouch?
An IP rating is a standardised classification indicating how well a product is protected against the ingress of solid particles, such as dust, and water. The first digit after “IP” indicates protection against solid particles, while the second indicates protection against water.
This matters because terms such as “waterproof phone pouch” or “waterproof phone case” alone do not define exactly what level of water exposure a product can withstand. Rain and splashing water place very different demands on a product from temporary or deeper immersion.
Before using a phone pouch around water, always check the specific IP rating and usage conditions stated for that model.
What should you check before using a waterproof phone pouch?
Effective water protection depends not only on the design of the pouch but also on correct use. Before exposure to water, make sure the closure is properly secured and check that there is no sand, dirt or other debris on the sealing surfaces that could prevent correct closure.
Also check that your phone fits comfortably within the internal dimensions of the pouch and that the device can be used as intended while inside it.
Which phone solution is best for your activity?
Beach, paddleboarding, kayaking and sailing
For activities where water protection is the main priority, choose a waterproof phone pouch with an appropriate IP rating. This type of solution can be particularly useful at the beach, on a boat or while paddleboarding, kayaking, canoeing and sailing.
Running and active sports
For running and similar activities, a sports phone holder can keep your device securely attached and within easy reach without requiring you to carry it in your hand.
Cycling
A bike phone mount is designed to keep the phone securely attached and visible while riding, making it a practical solution when navigation or quick access to the screen is important.
Motorcycles and scooters
For motorcycles and scooters, choose a compatible phone mount designed for a suitable attachment point. Secure installation is particularly important when the device is exposed to movement and vibration.
