Criuage USA Patent Running Hydration Vest Backpack, Lightweight Chest Pack with 2.0L Water Bladder Bag Daypack for Hiking Running Cycling Race Marathon for Women Men

Better than expected! This pack is honestly impressive and totally worth the money. The quality is where I’m most surprised. I was expecting thin material with thin zippers but it’s the exact opposite. The material is thick and sturdy, like a new pair of carhart pants. The zippers are lined with a waterproof seal (shown in pictures), they zip smoothly and firmly, and don’t come loose when running. The shoulder straps are sturdy and easy to adjust and even have Velcro straps to ensure the excess isn’t flopping around. I’m 6’4” and weigh 240 pounds. This pack fits me great once I adjusted the shoulder straps. I did adjust them almost to the max, so I’d say anybody taller than 6’6” may be pushing it close. But overall this definitely works for tall folks. The hydration bladder is well made, has a good seal, and the mouthpiece has a dual locking function with is awesome. What I am most impressed with about this pack is how versatile it is. I LOVE the concealed carry chest pouch. I carry an Sig P365 and there is plenty of room leftover. You could easily carry a full framed 9mm like a Glock 17 if you wanted to. I live way out in the country and always have had to wear a belly band when running - but this now solved that problem. On the front there is the main concealed carry pouch, a phone pocket, and two smaller accessory pouches. The are perfect size to fit a can of snuff and a wallet, or keys, etc. And on the back, there are two deep internal pouches (one on each side) that would be great for slipping in snacks or anything else. And on top of all that, there is also an elastic cord on the back which is perfect for securing extra clothes like a rain jacket. Long story short, this is a fantastic pack, great for running, hiking, biking, hunting, or just about anything else you can imagine. I recommend it 100%.

I use the Criuage USA Original Patent Running Hydration Pack for fly fishing and hiking, and it’s been an excellent hydration backpack in the field. The compartment layout is well designed, offering plenty of storage for fishing gear, fly boxes, tools, snacks, and essentials without feeling bulky. Everything stays organized and easy to access while on the move. The hydration bladder system works great and makes staying hydrated easy during long hikes and full days of fly fishing in rivers and streams. The pack is very comfortable, fits securely, and doesn’t bounce or shift while hiking, wading, or casting. It also works well as a lightweight running hydration pack for outdoor adventures. Overall, this is a versatile and durable hydration pack for fishing, hiking, and trail use. Highly recommended for anglers and hikers looking for comfort, storage, and a reliable hydration system.

Water capacity is good. Adjusts easily. Very comfortable. I have used it several times now for 4-5 mile hikes. Appears to be rugged and well constructed of durable materials. The front pack is organized well and the multi compartments provide plenty of space for carrying essentials that I like to carry on my hikes. Everything is easily accessible. Perfect for my needs. I carry a 50lb sandbag while hiking and sweat a lot so not sure what long term impact of heavy sweating and water exposure will be on the material.

So I've taken this guy out on the slopes a few times for some ski fun. I get dang hot and thirsty, so hydration packs are a MUST for me. The good: 1. pockets pockets pockets galore, and most are on the front! Readily accessible pockets! That's it. That's the RTB right there. If you love pockets, you'll love this thing. Keep all your stuff accessible in the front pockets! Snacks! Wallet! Keys! Did I mention pockets? Because I love pockets. 2. Snug and secure. Everything tightens well, no flapping straps hanging around to get caught on ski lifts. 3. It's pretty good looking - Every day I've had it out, I've been asked by others about it, so I've been happy to share. 4. No leak problems at all. The bladder seals well, and doesn't seem to be prone to the common problem of "oh I started twisting it a quarter inch to the left too soon so now the threads are misaligned and my back will be soaking wet in 10 minutes" issue. 5. The front zippers are rubber covered to keep water/snow out of the Really Cool Pockets Pockets Pockets. The bad: There are two things I DON'T like about this, but I'm going to keep using it anyways. 1. The bladder goes in and you have to strap it to the roof of the compartment with Velcro straps, which is really inconvenient when most hydration packs have a big plastic tongue on the bladder that just slides into a little pocket in the compartment to secure it. The Velcro straps take longer, and it's a bit archaic. 2. That bite valve doesn't release enough water. By the time I'm sucking on the hose for a drink, I'm THIRSTY and I need water NOW but the bite valve is all "Dude chill, drink slowwwwwwly" so I'm going to mark that as a negative. So the pack itself is amazing, but the bladder mount and bite valve need some improvements. But, and I can't stress this enough: POCKETS

I've used this bag for bike riding, which is how I travel every day. Compared to others I've tried, this is the best. On long rides in this summer heat, I add water to the bladder and put it in the freezer. As the ice melts I get cold water for about 3 hours and it helps keep me cool. It takes some adjustments to get the straps right but once they're sorted, it's very comfortable to wear, even fully loaded. A review that I read stated that the straps lay unevenly and makes it uncomfortable but there is a velcro strip that prevents that from happening so the manufacturer may have addressed that. I don't have that problem 🤷. I have nothing but praise for this item. It has room for everything I need, my wallet, cell phone, first aid, protein bars, glasses, wet wipes, and, at times, a full-size pistol and extra mag. I've thoroughly inspected seams, zippers (the easy draw ring-shaped pulls, water-resistant/proof teeth), and buckles. All top notch. The water hose can be directed to the left or right with easy-to-use clips on both sides that rotate 360°. The material is durable and waterproof. This is a very useful item for me and I highly recommend it. It's freekin awesome 👌

Just got the vest, it looks really good quality and good fit. Great for conceal carry when outdoors, and water if you need it. So far so good.

This vest is the best. I've been using it a whole lot. No leaks very durable and ease of use. I walk 5 miles almost everyday and the water temperature doesn't drop

Good vest to run and cycle in. Only problem I've had is that after purchasing in June it's the beginning of August and my 2l bladder has a leak in the area that the hose connects to the bladder.

Se siente muy resistente, fácil de ajustar, se siente la calidad, la bolsa no derrama líquido, es ligera y muy útil

the water leaked immediately and there were no instructions so i didn’t understand if i was doing something wrong

Great fit for average build, very light weight, great storage, would definitely recommend

Bisher ganz gut beim laufen die Gurte reiben wenn man oben ohne läuft leider etwas in der Haut wäre ein Polster noch ganz gut ansonsten zufrieden

オフロードバイクの走行に使用。 ハイドレーションバッグとウエストバッグを併用し、スマホをウエストバッグに入れていたのでまず、ウエストバッグが不要になったので良し。 これまでのハイドレーションバッグとウエストバッグで締め付けていた、わがままウエストが解放されたのでさらに良し。 さらに、ハイドレーションバッグエリアが、3層に仕切られているので、収納力もある上に、３Lのハイドレーションパックも入れられました。
