Nathan TrailMix 7L Running Vest for Men & Women, Hydration Vest w/ 2L Bladder Hydration Pack, Water Backpack for Hiking, Running, Walking, Marathon, Race

A really good pack. I've had mine over a year and it has held up well with my day hikes and marathons. I have washed it multiple times (for the pack - delicate cycle, air dry only; and for the hydration bag insert - hand wash in warm soapy water, cool rinse). The pack is light weight and works well with or without the hydration bag insert. The clips and drawstrings are sturdy. I couldn't be anymore satisfied with this brand and product.

I ran 8.45 miles with this beat first time out with it and it didn’t bounce and was comfortable even with a tank top on. Nice vest and for my longer hikes has plenty of room for a small lunch and necessary supplies for a day hike.

Great for trail running / hiking (up to a few hours for me). Small front small pockets handy for snacks and holding phone. No room for anything bulky like an extra layer or jacket. It has fully replaced my backpack now for all my hikes and runs.

It’s everything you need in a running vest. Fits nicely doesn’t chafe. Storage is great. Nice and lightweight. It takes a little of time to get it fit properly but when you do it’s awesome

Just finished my first trail 50K and very pleased with my Nathan TrailMix 7L hydration vest. Bladder was easy to fill (and clean/dry afterwards) and the mouth valve worked much better than both of my friend's Camelback's valves. The front pockets held my 2 soft flasks secure for the whole run. I also did a short training run with regular 500ml water bottles and they did fine also.While I did not need to use all the storage space during my race, I chose this vest to also use on future all day hiking trips. Plenty of room for extra snacks, rain poncho, flashlight, etc.Like some others have mentioned, the front straps did loosen while running, but it was simple to reach up and pull the strap to snug it up again. A minor annoyance. I had no issues with chafing or rubbing through my single layer tech shirt.

Lasted about 2.5. It's squeaking by at 4 but with tape, knots and saggy pockets.Mean issue on the side straps in the front straps they don't stay in place you tighten them down then they get loose within a few minutes. That's the absolute most aggravating part of these. That started since day one so I just tied knots in them however if I have different layers of clothing I have to adjust them or just deal with a tight or loose backpack. Straps need significant improvement.

Great hydration vest. It is light weight and has pockets for a phone and for other running supplies (like gels). Overall awesome vest!

Hydration pack leaks after a handful of uses. This is a known issue and should be recalled but Hydrapak doesn’t want to address the issue.As for the vest itself, it’s okay after rigging it with a rubber band so your phone doesn’t bounce in the chest strap pocket. Also good to take a bungee cable to keep the pack portion from bouncing.Poor effort on both parts, look elsewhere!
