Have tried several race / hydration vests but this one did exactly what I needed. Carried all the mandatory kit for ultra marathon, comfortable, no bounce, easy access pockets. No chaffing!

Would be a perfect vest if it had 2 zip pockets. Otherwise outstanding value for money

The Racepac 8 is a great mid sized Trail running pack. I had a couple of 10k on the fells just to get used to it before using it in anger on the Fellsman. The training runs were invaluable as I realised that a normal 500 mil bottle sits too low to access without removing from its holster. The purchase of two bottles with straws rectified this. I was also unable to get a good fit with my pole sleeve but I was able to squeeze it into the main pack area so no dramas there, but if you’re someone who likes to use a pole case and access and stash frequently whilst on the move then something to consider. (The pack does have pole attachment points on the front and loops at the waist in the back). The only negative point for me was that whilst the chest/waist pocket on the left can take a lot of stuff, it falls out too easily when taking the pack on/off. (I nearly lost a ‘spare’ 500ml bottle, but thankfully someone spotted it fall from my pack). I’ll most likely remedy with a small amendment to the pack as it’s otherwise extremely comfortable and stable.

It's a great product that i have used for several long(ish) runs and so far so good. The only downside i could pick is that the brand's own bottles get caught on the low level pockets each time but i'm not sure how that could be changed.

For context, I put in up to 100km of running a week and cannot step out the door without a vest. This vest is truly impressive—it's hard to believe it costs just 60 bucks, given the great value and quality it offers. I recommend choosing a size up since it fits snugly & has an easy adjustment. As promised, it has zero bounce, making it really comfortable whether you're out for a quick run or even training for a marathon. I think this brand & their products deserve more recognition on a global scale. I live in a country where they do not ship, yet I used a shopnship forwarding service & took the plunge, and I couldn't be happier! Absolute 10/10 vest.

I've been comparing several hydration vests, and this is by far the best in terms of quality and value for money. I would recommend going a size up since it fits snug. As they promise, it has zero bounce, quite comfortable for daily short runs or even upto a marathon distance. Special shoutout to the GTN youtube channel for reviewing this model in their hydration vest videos nearly 1 or 2 years ago.

I am 170cm tall, wider shoulders thus I ordered size M (based on size chart) but It is too big. I used it just on one run and the other thing I am in doubt is how long will those elastic string in front going to server its purpose. Otherwise I am very satisfied with what you get for what you pay.

I have Salomon running vests which are great but this vest from Inov8 has a cool stretchy stash pocket that wraps under arm and is out of the way. Really love the storage and overall weight. This is my go to vest now I’ll be giving away everything else.
