What type of activities is this vest best for?

It is ideal for short to moderate runs, trail running, hiking, and other outdoor activities where quick access to hydration and essentials is needed.

Troubleshooting

Vest feels unstable or bounces during activity

Adjust the sternum strap and side straps for a more secure fit. Ensure flasks are fully inserted into their pockets and that the vest is not overpacked.

Difficulty accessing flasks

Ensure the flasks are correctly positioned in the front pockets. Practice inserting and removing them while wearing the vest to find the most efficient motion.

Water leaks from the soft flask

Check that the flask cap is securely fastened. Inspect the flask for any cracks or damage. Clean the flask's nozzle and ensure it's properly seated.

Zipped pocket won't close with phone inside

The zipped pocket is designed for smaller items. If your phone is large, consider carrying it in the rear compartment or a dedicated armband.
