FAQs
What is the total hydration capacity?
The vest includes two 500mL flasks, totaling 1L. It is also compatible with hydration bladders up to 2L.
Can I fit a smartphone in the pockets?
Yes, most standard-sized smartphones fit in the accessible front pockets designed for quick access.
Is the vest suitable for hiking?
While designed for running, its storage and hydration capabilities can be useful for short hikes, especially if you prioritize minimal gear and bounce-free carrying.
How do I clean the vest?
Hand wash with mild soap and cold water, then air dry. Do not use a washing machine or dryer.
What should I do if the vest causes chafing?
Ensure the vest is snug but not overly tight. Adjust strap placement and consider wearing moisture-wicking base layers underneath.
Does it come with a hydration bladder?
No, the vest comes with two 500mL hydration flasks. Hydration bladders are sold separately but are compatible with the rear compartment.
Troubleshooting
Vest feels too tight or restrictive
Adjust the shoulder and sternum straps to find a comfortable, secure fit that allows for deep breathing.
Hydration flasks leak
Ensure the flask caps are properly screwed on and fully seated. Check the flasks for any cracks or damage.
Items bounce during run
Tighten the vest straps and ensure all items are placed in secure pockets. Overfilling can also cause bounce.
Bungee system is difficult to adjust
Practice adjusting the bungee cords when the vest is off. Familiarize yourself with the locking mechanism.
