Hydration Backpack 5.5L Running Vest Hydration Pack Water Backpack Hydration Vest Running Backpack Water Bag for Cycling Marathon Hiking

I’ve never run carrying water before, but as Saturday long runs are long distance I needed to think of a solution to thirst.I bought this after a lot of research and am over the moon. Wore it today for a half-marathon and honestly barely felt it. The water is easy to access and I also carried my phone, some tissues, money and sunglasses.Brilliant, would give it 10 stars if I could 😀

Still use daily 3 years later

Wore it last night on a run and it’s so lightweight and comfortable. Didn’t rub at all. Great pockets for all you need to carry. The front bottle pocket is the perfect fit for my iPhone 14 pro max.

Comfortable fit and once you get use to the bottles very good value for money.

Good quality. Good comfort as well even over very long distances. Not waterproof though.

Great first hydration vest. Fits iyst e ough in it for long distance rinning days and events. Better than i expected quallity wise too. Fits a hydration bladder in pergectly and gas a clip for the long too. Only downside is that its quite a tight fit for me, i am broad for a runner so that was to be expected.

I use my Aonijie backpack 4-5 times a week for trail running. It is lightweight, a great adjustable fit and is suitable to carry a waterproof, water, phone, GoPro and snacks if needed. It’s not waterproof so I carry a phone in a small plastic bag. The backpack is great value for money but a persistent problem I’ve had is the elastic closures on the strap pockets have broken on the last 2 backpacks I’ve had. Whilst not a disaster this means my water bottle and GoPro need to be carried internally in the bag and therefore the bag needs to be taken off to use these. Would have had 5 stars without this problem

The bad1. The pockets are a little bit small, can't get my phone in em so have to use the extra water pouches on the front. - not a major issue as the bladder on the back holds more than enough water for an armature runner like me.The inconvenient.1. The back bladder is in close contact with your actual back so the water gets warm, not really much you can do about it, its really more of a minor nit pick, could put a towel with an ice pack in between you and it as there is plenty of space in the bag but I haven't tried because it doesn't bother me that much.2. The mouth piece is a bit finicky and the suction isn't great when the bladder gets low, again, not much you can do about it. If you're struggling to get suction then pull slightly on the hose below the mouth piece and it sorts it out.The Good.1. Very light weight2. Comfortable and a good fit, can be adjusted a lot, will fit over my weight vest fine3. High viz, very important with the days getting shorter4.The bladder is of good construction and I'v had no issues with leakage or anything5. sturdy with good stitching.Tl:drits a really good product for the price and Is ideal for newer runners to more experienced long distance runners.get baking soda with it as you'll need to wash it out prior to use to avoid the plastic taste( this is common with any water bladder, can't be avoided)
