Nike+ Sport Band to hit Asia in the coming weeks

John Chan | May 01, 2008

We've written about the Nike+ Sport Band, which is part of the sportswear giant's system for generating statistics about your own running patterns and progress. Though the Western world has gotten it first, we here in Asia don't have to wait too long. Nike has informed us that it will go on sale in Singapore from May 8, with the rest of Asia to follow shortly after. It will retail for S$99.

For the uninitiated, the Nike+ iPod Sport Kit was originally meant to be used with an iPod nano. The main component is a chip with a pedometer which goes into a hole in the sole of your Nike+ shoe. With the Sport Band, you no longer need to have an iPod nano, which is a boon for those who find music players and headphones cumbersome during jogs. Read our full review of the iPod Sport Kit here.
