IX INOXTO Running Hydration Vest for Men Women Water Backpack for Running 3L Running Hydration Pack for Trail Running Marathon Race Hiking

I love this hydration vest! This thing has been with me on multiple adventures, including being soaked in the bottom of my kayak, then unceremoniously dumped on the ground while I drained my kayak. It has been tossed all over my car and worn on countless adventures. I’ve thrown it in the washing machine, and it still looks brand new. Very durable! It’s comfortable to wear. I can loosen it to fit over my weighted vest or tighten it for a run with minimal bouncing. The hydration pack is super easy to fill and clean. The spout is great to drink from. This won’t hold a sweatshirt but will hold snacks, first aid kit, emergency ponchos, wipes, etc. The extra hydration pockets up front worked well for bear spray, and I love that there are small zippered pockets to keep keys and valuables secure. This vest is worth every penny!

So I will start off by saying that this is a small & short bag. Better suited for smaller individuals. A 12L bag but it seems so much smaller once you put items in there, along with the bladder. This bag is enough for a short walk/run/hike/trip experience. Anything longer and you’re going to want to get a larger capacity bag. Two days in a row what I love that it’s lightweight and has an amazing amount of pockets & storage for whatever you may need for a quick grab. The shoulder straps and rear exterior of the bag are made of a breathable honeycomb mesh. The inside is conveniently large enough to carry several items, if you’re not carrying the filled bladder. Once you have a filled bladder in there, the space is minimal (look at the last 2 photos). You’re carrying just the essentials at that point. The exterior of the rear bag has crisscrossed elastic ties that are great for carrying trekking poles, a packable jacket, small blanket, etc. All the straps are enclosed in a reflective material which is great for nighttime visibility. Now my favorite part is the front of the vest! Pockets everywhere! I like to have my items easily accessible, so that way I don’t need to slow down or stop to look for items. The bag has 3 cross body slip&lock straps: upper chest, mid chest and the lower back. There are two pockets to hold the soft flasks (that come with the bag!); 2 zippered mesh compartments on the waist wrap; and 4 smaller pockets to store snacks, keys. chapstick, etc. The bladder and connecting tube worked great. No leaking issues or trouble with the tube as I’ve seen in other reviews. You have to get used to pulling from the mouth valve while being active, but once you have that down, it’s a highly effective hydration bladder. Overall, I find this bag to be just as good as the name brand bags and even better because it’s a fraction of The cost. I highly recommend

I really like this hydration vest. It is so convenient, has lots of pockets. The water bladder works great with a snap-on system & big tube. I can easily drink the water on the run. I strongly recommend this vest.

Great vest! It has many pockets and it’s really light! You almost can’t feel it. You can adjust the side straps to fit you better. I took one star because it the collapsible bottle one of them the cap come off easily (it doesn’t seal correctly). Other than that it’s a really great vest! I will use it for my first half marathon

I own quite a few running/hiking packs and hydration bladders and this is by far my absolute favorite! You can tell there was great attention to detail put into every little feature. The size is perfect and exactly what I was looking for as a smaller build, athletic woman. I love that it's so small and lightweight and the straps keep it in secure in place so I can wear it on runs and not worry about it bouncing around everywhere or leaving my back uncomfortable and sweaty - though not too small that I can't fit everything I need to pack with me for long runs or short hikes. The straps are great and do not dig into my shoulders at all which is very important to me when wearing a pack for a long duration of time. I also love all the small pockets on the straps, both zippered and non-zippered, that allow you to easily access small items while wearing the pack without having to take it off which is very useful. And added bonus, I just love the light grey color and think it's so cute! The included hydration bladder is also great and I actually like it even more than some of my more expensive ones. I especially appreciate the included cap for the mouthpiece so I don't have to worry about it getting dirty and germy while out on the trails. And so far after quite a few uses I have yet to experience a single leak from it! A great purchase!

I loved this pack it eventually broke after i washer & dried it a few times. 😭

Perfect size, lightweight, many compartments. Perfect for travel/hiking.

Loved how it was lightweight and has lots of breathability. But that damn straw is terrible. The locking mech does nothing to stop errant drips or leaks when set down. Clips were rather flimsy. 1 star for fit, 1 star for the water capacity and including 2 pouch bottles, 1 star for affordability.
