INOXTO Hydration Vest Backpack,Lightweight Water Running Vest Pack with 1.5L Water Bladder Bag Daypack for Hiking Trail Running Cycling Race Marathon for Women Men

I LOVE this pack. I was so on the fence about getting one for marathon training. I didn’t want the extra weight behind me, I didn’t want it making me warmer. After a 14 mile run trying to carry a water bottle a gave in and got this pack and I’ll tell you right now. It’s a lifesaver. My only complaint is the bladder that comes with it seals on the top by sliding the plastic top on. But the plastic piece that is supposed to keep the water in isn’t quite long enough. So while running the water splashes out the top a little leaving my low back and butt soaked with water on long runs. But I can replace that pretty cheap. This pack can hold any bladder you’d want to put in it. The 4 pockets are awesome. A zipped pocket carries my phone. And 4 other drop in pockets for fuel. It’s light weight and not super hot. If using for walking or hiking the bladder issue wouldn’t even be a problem.

Super easy to clean! Great for running! I can hold a lot of my essentials for long runs. Great quality

I tried a few different types of running belts and didn’t like them for multiple reasons, mostly they jostled around on my waist which I hated and they couldn’t hold enough water for my long runs, especially in the summer. I looked into running vests and was intimidated by ones that were over $100 from the reputable running brands. As a new-er runner that was a lot to sink into a product, especially since I didn’t even know if I would like wearing a vest. I figured I’d give this $20 vest from Amazon a go (and maybe invest in a more expensive one if I liked it). Turns out I LOVE this thing. It is super convenient for long runs; it is lightweight, breathable, very adjustable so no bouncing or chafing, has plenty of storage space, including plenty of pockets (zipped ones for more secure storage and easier access ones too). There is an attached whistle which I’ve never used but like having as a little safety measure. The water bladder it comes with is a nice bonus too, but just make sure you only use water in it - I made the mistake of putting electrolytes once and it’s impossible to clean the little bits of mold in the tube. I’ve been taking this on all of my long 2+ hour runs and I can hold plenty of water and everything/anything else I need. I’ve had it for 7 months now and it is holding up really well. I’ve even thrown it in the wash with no issues (not sure if it’s supposed to be machine washable). I really have no need or desire for a “nicer” (more expensive) vest, but if anything I would like to purchase the same vest in a different color.

I bought this hoping to use it for an upcoming marathon but it's not going to work out. Since covid, aid stations are less frequent so I wanted to be able to run unsupported. Unsupported running is also nice for trail races which don't typically have aid stations like road races do. I wanted to carry 500 mL bottles in the front pouches along with the included 1.5L bladder for long runs, or to carry just the bottles without the bladder for shorter runs (they're easier to maintain than bladders). This vest seems like it's nice quality, especially considering the price. It's light weight and soft. The straps make it easily adjustable to fit many body types. There are extra pockets so you can store things like your keys which is extremely nice when you drive yourself to races without a support crew. The water pockets seem sturdy enough, but unfortunately I didn't get to test them on a run which is a bummer. Overall it seems like a nice vest, but don't plan on using large volume bottles on the front pockets. I figured I could use the soft 500 mL bottle from my old vest since there is an option on these to buy it with two 450 mL bottles. Apparently that vest option has a different design because the pockets on this the 500 hangs way out. So much so that the top is by my ear. I know the bottle I tried is 50 mL bigger than their bottle option, but those bottles aren't that much smaller. I'd say you can probably comfortably fit a 250/300 mL bottle in them. In short. I'd keep this if I was planning on using smaller bottles (running shorter races), but I'm going to return it to get a vest that I can use for the long runs. If you're okay with using the bladder only, and/or using smaller bottles this is a good option.

I bought this water pack to train with and use for a full marathon. I was afraid it would be heavy but it’s so lightweight. It feels like it weighs a couple ounces even with a full water pack inside. The pockets are deep enough you can put your keys, headphone case and cell phone in one pocket. In the other pocket which is on the strap I had a protein bar, electrolytes packet, energy gummies, and chapstick. It comes with a chest strap that is adjustable and not bulky at all and a stomach strap. I love the placement of these straps because they really help keep the pack from moving. I like the straps to feel tight and they were tight in all the right places. I am so happy how well this pack worked out. I highly recommend this pack for any kind of training/sport especially for the size, comfort, and price!!

This think is awesome. There are a few of small details I can harp about (and I will because that's who I am) but overall I couldn't be happier especially at the price point. The bladder is good. The pack is comfortable. The straps are well made. I put this through a Spartan Super already and it handled everything like a champ. My few small gripes. 1) I wish they just made a black/grey one. I know this is silly but all my running stuff is black grey and red so none of the three color options the have match. I shouldn't care but I do. 2) I wish they made a 2.5 liter one. I shoved my larger bladder in it for a 5 hour race I had to do but really would have liked a larger option to buy. 3) I wish that they put a clip point on bladder hose not just on the cap. While running and having the cap clipped to the vest it popped off a couple times. No biggie but I would like to be able to clip elsewhere. I might try and transfer my magnetic clip from my other bladder to this.

Got into running as a way to stay active during cancer treatment. I’ve lost a lot of weight due to my illness, and to my surprise this fits snug on the tightest adjustment! Water doesn’t slosh around. Easy to fill and clean. Very comfortable and accessible for my medical equipment. Comfortable on my chest port. Very lightweight, don’t even notice it’s there. Holds my phone well and lots of room in the pouches. Trendy appearance, easy to figure out, versatile for any activity.

My wife and I bought 2 of these vests because we do a lot of long distance running. We had to return one because it was too big for my wife. We adjusted the vest to the minimum possible size for her. It was still too big on her. She is 5'2'' and 100 lbs. The one that we kept for myself fits fine and works as intended. However, after almost a month of use, the bladder pouch in the back is leaking. I tried not to think too much of it on our last long run (12 plus miles). Maybe it was just the condensation from the cold water. Unfortunately, it was not the condensation but an actual leak. By mile 4 my lower back and shorts were all drenched from the water that leaked out. Half the bladder had leaked on me. We had to stop and dump out the remaining water. I had to finish the rest of my run with wet clothes and limited fluids to drink. This was very unfortunate. I sent the seller a message and I am waiting to hear back. This review was created on 8/20/2023.

The quality of this product seems to be reasonable although I haven't tried the water system yet, which has a lot of negative reviews but I have a spare CamelBak one which fits too. Minor points to note are that most of the circular 'close-up' detail pictures are innacurate e.g. there are no elasticated 'water pipe fixing straps' at the shoulders, there is no (strangely named) 'energy bin' behind the upper pockets (bizarrely named 'warehouses) - which have a toggled draw cord not shown in the pictures - and the chest fixing buckles are different to what the detail picture shows and the '6.8" mobile phone pocket' is only 4.5" deep. This is probably due to the design changing over a period of time and the vendor not bothering to change their pictures but one major point to note is that the pictures of the whole vest have been stretched to make it look bigger than it really is, which is Asian sized rather than Western sized (note that they conveniently don't have any pictures of anybody wearing one). I am just 175 cm tall and weigh 76 kg but, as can be seen in the picture below, this vest is more like a bra and what they call the 'adjustable hip belt' is 10" above my hips (without the weight of the water pack pulling the shoulder straps (which are not 'adjustable' as claimed) upwards). This is definitely more suitable for a small person and I'll give it a go while it's still t-shirt weather but it will definitely be too small to wear over anything heavier.

purchased this item a week ago and used it for a test 30km long run. this product is highly recommended and gives more value back for your money. gave me no chaffing, got enough space for the phone, sun glasses, bars or salt packets as well as other things. the vest fits very well on my considerably plump physique. i am very glad i transitioned from the hydration belt to this. need to wait for the summer season in UAE to test against heat but so far i love it. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Muy bonito y de excelente calidad. Mi mamá encantada con su chaleco

Absolutely not possible to wear in heat, as it has no ventilation. Also had increased chafing in the chest area when wearing this. It is good for carrying a lot of stuff tho

Muy buen producto, fácil de usar, cómodo y de buena calidad.
