Works great for long runs
Bought this to prep for a marathon. The back and chest straps work great to hold it in place – it doesn’t move on me at all when adjusted properly. The 1.5L size is perfect – you can fill it up all the way for long runs, or only partially for shorter runs. My phone fits in the back pocket, and some quick-energy snacks fit in the strap pocket. The bite valve works great, and there is a snap on the right strap to keep the tube from swinging around when running. When done, I drain & remove the bladder, then rinse it off in the shower, and let it hang dry – easy.

Lots of storage and easy to use.
Very easy to use. I use the smaller mesh pockets for bear spray. Lots of storage areas. Straps are easily adjustable. Water bladder holds a good amount of water easy to use.

Fits too tight
Don’t know what the deal is with this thing, I’ve had hydration packs before, but this wouldn’t clip around my chest without suffocating me, and I’m not broad chested, I’m a 5’6 average woman. If you’re super itty bitty, buy it!

Versatile pack!
Excellent product. I am a petite female so it’s hard to find packs that will adjust and be light enough and this one is just perfect! I got the peach color- looks exactly like the picture. No leakage (but you have to twist to the left first until you hear a click and then you turn right to tighten lid). I bought this to train for a half marathon, I do a lot of beach running so I bought a small light towel to bring in it. iPhone 13 Pro fits perfectly in the front zipper pocket, I can also bring pepper spray and some snacks.Will be using it for a lot of other activities such as hiking, paddle boarding etc.My favorite part is that I can easily squeeze the mouth piece with my fingers and water will squirt out so I can use it to provide water for my dog on walks and hikes.For size reference- I’m 5’ 3.5” (longer legs, shorter torso/short waist), 110 lbs, 30B, usually wear XS clothing.

Great Quality, but Too Small
Great quality, but too small. I’m a 5’9″ and 160 pound male and I couldn’t get it on.
