So far I used it for hiking and cycling. It’s very comfortable and its expandable size is very handy. However, it’s too large for my wife to use on the bike as the top reaches the back of her head but she finds it fine for hiking.
Got these as a gift by a work colleague who wanted to do something to help support me while training for The Ultra Tour of Edinburgh. They are super comfortable and convenient. Definitely buying a few pairs of my own before the big day.
Comfortable and great value
Forgot I had ordered them 🤭. Told hubby we can share. Opened one and they are perfect, good flavour, not to sweet.
Perfect fit. I have the Glen 15 back pack and needed something to store snacks gloves etc. It's spot on and well work it
Lovely top, fits well, soft and comfortable next to the skin. Really like the colour and it's got several useful zipped pockets.
Very pleased with my purchase.
Good quality hopefully they will keep yhe rain out .
Great bag, exactly what I wanted, very reasonably priced too. Very happy with it
I have a red one of these, which has seen me through Iceland, the Andes, two five-day ultras and whole host of other stuff. It is a brilliant, sturdy bit of kit that's lasted me about four years.
Decent compartment inside, and the amount of pockets on the outside mean I'm generally finding old wrappers or snacks for months after returning home.
I have been on the look out for a waterproof running jacket for a long time. I've looked at the whole spectrum of jackets. I was then excited to see this one released but was very dubious of the 20k claim! That's massive for any waterproof!
I wore this for the first time yesterday and I was blown away. The fit is excellent and true to size, the quality and material is what you would expect of a high end jacket and it's comfortable to wear. What truly impressed me was the breathability. There was none of the plastic bag feel, there was no pooling of sweat in the sleeves or any of the uncomfortable heat that you normally see with a jacket. It was exceptional.
Unfortunately the rain eased up very quickly so I can't really comment on the waterproofing but overall I'm seriously impressed with this jacket!
I have now used this back pack on 2 ultras and it is amazing , holds all essential kit and is extremely comfortable I would highly recommend.
👌👌
Haven`t worn it yet, but it looks to be good quality and a good fit.
I'm a five foot nothing, 60-odd kilo, Aussie lady and I love this trail vest. Ordinarily I am a size 10-12, usually a ladies Medium here in Australia.
I purchased a Large trail vest as the measurements matched the most closely with my existing Salomon 12L Unisex XS pack.
The pack is longer from shoulders to lower back than the Salomon and it would have been nice to know that length (although let's be honest, I'd have purchased one anyway).
The side and front pockets are a similar layout to my existing pack but the side pockets are a little smaller - I have had to rethink what I keep in those pockets now.
I have worn the vest for up to 5 hours on the trails and so far no chafing. It feels a little odd to have my lower back/upper glutes being 'brushed' by the bottom of my vest/hydration bladder, but it's not a deal breaker.
I have no regrets buying this vest. I'd probably try a Medium if I bought another one.
Nice and lightweight, material is stretchy so there's give in them for when you need to raise knee to climb over stile etc.
Haven't worn them to run in yet but I think they'll be great.
