FAQs
What is the total hydration capacity of the vest?
The vest includes two 250ml soft flasks, giving a total included hydration capacity of 500ml. The main compartment can hold additional items, but not additional fluid containers beyond the provided flasks.
Can I use my own water bottles instead of the included soft flasks?
The front pockets are designed to hold the specific 250ml Hydrapak soft flasks. While other similarly sized soft flasks might fit, larger or rigid bottles are not recommended as they may not be secure or comfortable.
Is this vest suitable for hiking?
While versatile, the vest is optimized for running. Its 2-litre capacity is best suited for shorter hikes where minimal gear is needed. For longer hikes, a dedicated backpack with greater capacity would be more appropriate.
How do I clean the vest?
Hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Rinse thoroughly and air dry. Do not machine wash, bleach, iron, or dry clean.
Are the soft flasks BPA-free?
Yes, the included Hydrapak soft flasks are BPA-free.
What material is the vest made from?
The vest is constructed with high-stretch powernet and breathable, fast-drying air-mesh on the body contact areas.
What are the benefits of the adjustable chest straps?
The adjustable chest straps allow for a customized, secure fit, which helps to minimize bouncing and improve comfort and stability during your run.
Troubleshooting
Vest feels unstable or bounces excessively.
Readjust the chest straps for a tighter, more secure fit. Ensure the contents are packed symmetrically to maintain balance. Check that the soft flasks are fully inserted.
Difficulty accessing items in the back pocket.
Ensure the pocket is not overstuffed. The high-stretch fabric should allow for easy access, but an overly full pocket may impede this.
Soft flask leaks.
Ensure the cap is screwed on tightly and correctly. Check the bite valve for any obstructions or damage. Clean the flask and cap threads before reassembling.
Zipper on chest pocket feels stiff or corroded.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and warm water. Ensure the zipper is dry before use. Avoid excessive force.
