![]() Although you do have to buy the 1.5l bladder (£32, ) separately. If you need more than the 1l of water that can be stored in the flasks (or if you prefer drinking from a water bladder), this bag comes with a thermos sleeve, which helps to keep your water cool, and pops directly into the back of the vest. ![]() It holds up to 5l – so it’s meant to be used for shorter outings or race days. The elastic straps on the front offer a wrap-like feel and they are adjustable, so you can customise the fit. It also offers minimal bounce – we really appreciated the subtle elastic loops that secure the flasks in their pockets, which makes them easy to drink from. We really loved how comfortable this vest felt to run in. Featuring a ridiculous amount of pockets – two expandable stretchy pockets at the front (ideal for snacks), two pockets to fit the flasks, small shoulder pockets that are great for keys (there’s even a key holder), one wide back pocket and a secure zipped pocket, perfect for your phone – it also comes with two 500ml soft flasks, and the fact it’s made from breathable fabrics means it fits snugly to the body.

If you’re planning to head out for a full-day hike and you want to stay hydrated, or you’re training for a marathon and you want to practise running and drinking at the same time, you’ll need a hydration vest that’s big enough to carry all your essentials – something that’s lightweight and breathable, and has easily adjustable straps to keep you comfortable. You wear them high up on your back and they fit snugly, to limit movement while running. Hydration vests are specifically designed for running. Plus, carrying water via a backpack-style vest means you can focus on your running (rather than holding a bottle) – and there’s extra space to stash your phone, keys, and energy gels, too.
