Hi! I have the fitbit ionic and I love it. I have one issue with it, the lack of an armband. I workout 7 days a week doing cardio kickboxing that requires me to wrap my hands and wear boxing gloves. Majority of the time my exercise pauses the first few minutes into my workout. As you can imagine, this is extremely frustrating. I would LOVE an armband for these workouts.

I believe you can find band extenders on Amazon. Perhaps that would work for you.

I very much agree and have had the same experience of my workout being paused or ended completely due to pressure from the surrounding gloves or other impacts.
My preferred solution would be an armband design from Fitbit. Something that could be word on the bicep or high on the forearm.

Hello @AMJasin and @SkaldMage, it's good to see you around in the Community forums. And thank you for your help with this @SunsetRunner.
This could be a very useful accessory if Fitbit ever decided to include it in the Fitbit Store, however, at the moment this idea is in Not Currently Planned status, as you can check here. I do recommend that you add your vote and include your comments in the suggestion I mentioned previously, this is always useful to attract more attention from the team of developers.
I hope this helps.
