Reviews

Well made, highly functional

"Love my new vest! I've done two long runs so far, no rubbing issues and very comfortable. Supplied flasks are hydra flask, so no issues there. Plenty of pockets for gels, bars, phone, inreach to fit comfortably. The lumbar stretchy pocket is perfect for quickly stowing a jacket and gloves and can be accessed without taking the vest off. I bought this for a 50 miler in April and I have no doubt it will do the trick."

— Tanner M. (5/5)

Fantastic Vest

"I love this vest. It's perfect for my training and ultra races."

Favorite running equipment

"Having never run wih a vest or hydration pack, I was worried I would obsesss over it bouncing around on the trail for 2 1/2 hours. But having run my first trail 1/2 marathon with just a water bottle and getting seriously dehydrated I promised mysef that'd have to end. To my absolute pleasure it fit snug, but not restrictive. There was enough fluid to help me pass the first aide station. Zipper pocket fits my S20, front pouches hold plnty of gel packs and calories. I can reach the back pocket to ditch and store clothes for when i inevitability wear to much on the trail. Now I wear it out for practice runs. Essential part of my long distane gear now."

— Joe P. (5/5)

Great vest!

"I'm a fan of this vest, but I had to change the front straps because I couldn't get the vest tight enough for me. To be fair most running vests are like that for me."

— Maxence F. (4/5)

Excellent Suspension & Storage

"I'm very happy with my Distance 4 Hydration Vest. It has a great suspension system that keeps gear from jostling. Mesh everywhere means ventilation is superb. I've also been pleasantly surprised with how much I can carry. Zippered pocket in the front keeps my phone and keys readily accessible & secure. Well done BD!"

— Andrew P. (5/5)

Great running vest

"I really like all the stash pockets and flexibility with bottles I can use since its pockets stretch so much. I wish it had two zippered pockets. Only real complaint so far."

— Shayne B. (4/5)

A VEST for my MOM

"The vest was a gift for my mom, and like a true mom, she’s always extra prepared for any situation—so she really loved how many compartments it has. They’re not just practical, they’re also sturdy and spacious. She ran over 20km with it and said it was comfortable the whole time, with no chafing at all."

— Patricia E. (5/5)

Great running vest for carrying

"Great running vest for carrying the essentials."
