There were still questions about how waterproof the sensor was and how to protect it if worn on the outside of your shoe. Even though the seam on the shoe sensor is tightly sealed, there are still many people looking for an extra layer of protection.

(That's why you can't replace the battery.) I don't get it. The Nike+ unit is already waterproof. (That’s why you can’t replace the battery.) I don’t get it.

My mother just found my sensor in the washing machine. I'll let you know if it works. I can tell you if it actually is waterproof or not. My mother just found my sensor in the washing machine.

Your totally AWESOME!!! Over the summer I tried out a bunch of Nike shoes during our San Francisco CLUB runs (aka Nike Marathon training runs sponsored by Nike) with and with out the Nike+iPod Sport kit (ipod and Nike sensor) but none of the Nike shoes ever worked for me. I really loved the Nike+iPod Sport kit but after a couple of miles in any of the Nike shoes it became clear that Nike shoes were not for me. The problem is I love my ASCII GT 2110, which fit me perfectly. I've participated in 4 marathons in 2006, in my ASCII shoes so I know these are the shoes that work for me (I buy running shoes every 3-4 months). When Nike advertised their Nike Plus resolution this month I really wanted to participate. For every person who meets their goal Nike will donate money to help children which is why I really wanted to participate. Now after reading this article I'm very grateful that I can participate and run in my favorite shoes. I can also be a team player in my running club too by participating in the Nike plus resolution challenge. Thanks Again - xGoofy Thanks.. Your totally AWESOME!!!

I wanted one of these, but I had to admit that the nike+ shoes were just not as comfortable as the plain old nikes that I wanted (and more expensive, of course). The sales guy assured me that I could find information on the internet about how to use it anyway. And, I did! Thanks again! Thank you, thank you!

Your solution seems like more trouble to me... and less elegant. Believe it or not, some of us don't actually want to cut up our running shoes. My main goal was to prove that you didn't need the Nike+ shoes to use the Sport Kit, and to do it with as little damage to my shoe as possible. And BTW, there's no duct tape involved. Glad to hear you're having good luck with your shoe mod. To each his own, dokein. Your solution seems like more trouble to me… and less elegant.

I mean, who wants velcro, plastic, and duct tape stuffed under their laces? I just grabbed my Xacto and carved a sensor-shaped hole into the midsole of my Brooks Adrenaline GTS's. Dropped in the sensor, and covered it back up with the inner sole. Can't feel it, can't see it, works great. And it is as water-resistant as it would be in a Nike+ shoe.
