Nice vest for long runs!

Vest held up nicely during long run. Plenty of water in the back plus options to add water bottles in the front. Phone, ID wallet, energy gels, first aid kit all fit with extra room to spare.

Best minimalist running vest

I love this vest. I live in Arizona and run in very hot weather, so I needed something that holds a lot of water but does not add a lot of extra material to my person. This fits the bill perfectly. I love that it rides high on the back and allows for maximum ventilation. The straps are easy to adjust and can be secured easily so that the excess doesn't flap around while I run. The pack feels very secure with no bounce while not being constricting or suffocating. I love the velcro piece that secures the water bladder in place so it doesn't slosh around. Between the water bladder and the front flask pockets I can carry 2L of water. I did have a similar issue to another reviewer with the straws on the flask being a bit long, but I just tucked them into the pocket and it wasn't a problem. I might try cutting them down as suggested. I've used Salomon, Nathan, and Naked running vests and have had various issues with all of them. This will be my go-to vest for the Arizona summer for the foreseeable future.

Ideal Running Pack

Ran my first marathon with this pack and it performed perfectly. I will be hiking rim to rim later this year and this will be the only pack I bring with me. Would have liked an option to purchase this and two flasks (at a discounted price) as a bundle.

Gear Vest v3

Perfect for longer days running on the road or trail. The front pockets hold a gel flask perfectly and 1L of water is a nice size while still feeling light. Only requested improvement is an integrated hose clip (I just trimmed mine). The higher mounting holds well on my body. Nice job Orange Mud!
