Love it so far

I was worried about the size, but the vest adjusts enough to fit like it was made for me, almost. The only area that is a little big is the width across my shoulders. Still, that has not caused a problem. I have gone on two runs with it, the latest 11 miles. I don't have any areas of chaffing, and wore it with a tank top. It seems well worth the cost.

Great vest!

Been using the vest for over a week. Very pleased with the performance thus far. Fits great, no bouncing, and alot pockets for my running essentials. Solid materials too. Well worth purchase.

Endurance Pack V3.0

Took this pack for a test run today it’s well built and absolutely no bounce when weighted down. Looking forward to test running it on my next hundred mile on the 22nd of this month.

Very comfortable. . .one flaw!

I just love how comfortable the V3 is. The adjustments are simple to manipulate and change as the bladder empties. Lots of space for the storage I need.

I have used other packs (Osprey in particular) and am very disappointed that the hose does not have a magnetic clip or other hook available. The hose bounces all over. I've tucked it in the front adjusting straps to compensate. Please add this design feature!

Orange Mud, LLC

Hi Dennis!

Thanks for the review! One tip on the hose that solves the problem noted, just cut the excess length. I suggest popping off the bite valve and cutting it to where the valve starts approximately 4" in front of the elastic shoulder keeper. Then you drink and drop it and it's rock solid in one spot!

Thanks!

Josh

The Mighty Mini Marvel of Multi-Sport Awesomeness

When it comes to hydration packs, the Orange Mud Endurance Pack V3.0 is like a scrappy underdog—it’s small, mighty, and has some impressive moves. This pack ticks a lot of boxes for runners and multi-sport athletes, but let’s be real: it’s not perfect, especially if you’re on the larger side. Here’s my breakdown after putting it through its paces:

Fit & Comfort

I’ll start with the elephant (me) in the room. As someone wearing a US XL, this pack fits tight—tight enough that if you’re larger than XL, you might not find it comfortable. Once I adjusted the straps, it stayed put and felt secure, but it was designed with a more slender audience in mind.

Hydration System

This is where the pack truly shines. The 2L bladder slides in easily and doesn’t fight you when filling or storing. My twin 500ml soft flasks up front are equally hassle-free. I loved how simple it was to stay hydrated without fumbling around mid-run. However, a full bladder squishes the back storage pockets, making them less usable when carrying a lot of water. It’s a trade-off you might have to consider for longer runs or rides.

Storage Layout

Let’s talk about the pack’s storage game.

The shoulder stashes are absolute champs, holding a boatload of gels (at least six per side!). The front mesh pockets easily fit essentials like salt sticks, snacks, or even an iPhone 16, which was a delightful surprise.

But the back pockets felt cramped when the 2L bladder was full. Sure, they’re there, but they’re not super…
