    Shirt with rear pocket

    I think I've seen runners wearing shirts with a rear pocket. I really, really don't want to get into jerseys -- it's a whole 'nother thing to figure out and spend money on.

    I just want a place for ID and cash to be safe. Does anyone know if there are such shirts, or did I imagine them? I plan to swing by the runner's apparel store and a sporting goods store, but anything to shorten my search would be welcome.

    Shebeest's plain Strada Jersey has a single zipped pocket on the back. TE carries the Crest Strada, but I have a model that I think is 2009, maybe 2008 that I see pop up regularly on eBay, Nashbar, Sierra Trading Post and other places. Comfortable light fabric, simple design. I've spotted it in pink, green, blue and purple. Sleeveless or short-sleeved. I got mine on STP for some terrific temporary price a couple of months ago---maybe $25?

    I was going to post about this Shebeest jersey when I saw the above. This jersey looks like a nice polo, but in wicking material and the zipper pocket is nice and flat. I just wore it for a ride to the farmers' market, where I had my purse in my pannier, so I didn't need to stuff my pockets.
    I have one or two wicking tees that have a very teeny zip pocket on the side seam, maybe big enough for a license and a dollar bill. I think they are by Mountain Hardware. Also, look at Athleta running stuff. I am pretty sure their running tops have something like this.

    I have a number of running shirts with little pockets - eddie bauer, sugoi, champion C9 (pocket in the sleeve) but my complaint about most running shirts with pockets is that the pockets don't zip. And I've lost keys while running...which really, really sucks. I also like the brooks shorts with the little outer side pockets (they velcro) - I think they're the synergy model.

    Or...another option are the little wristbands with a pocket inside them. I kind of like those to wipe my face with.

    I wore a cycling jersey on a run once - it wasn't a real duathlon, but an untimed tour with a 5K following. My ID baggie fell out of my pocket within the first 100 m and I had to hold it in my hand for the rest of the run.

    I'd go with a SpiBelt or, if you want to carry a phone too, an iFitness belt (chuffier).

    I have several Tek Gear shirts and tanks from Kohl's that have pockets that should work. I think they're meant for ipods, but I've used them for Gu. They don't zip, but they're pretty secure.
