Review on ๐ŸŽ’ Optimized Hydration Backpack - Lightweight Water Pack with 2L Water Bladder for Running, Hiking, Biking, Festivals, and Raves by Sean Sheppard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great style, more storage than you think.

I am very happy with this bag and hope to get more. I will recommend them to friends. I took it to the canyon for the ABGT weekender and it was phenomenal! I was able to fit a camping blanket, inflatable pillow, flag poi, and packable running jacket into the main pocket! I've received several compliments on the color scheme (holographic - green). I want to use a larger size for my dance props. If you only take the essentials with you, you can easily get through security! You have not unzipped or checked my bubble. The mouthpiece is efficient and has a safety and bite valve and cap. The lid sometimes flew off during intense dancing in the pit. The hose heats up in the sun, giving you classic hot water before you even reach the insulated cover. The lid was removed from the bubble but I found it fell off more than I wanted. Overall average bladder impression. The mesh dries quickly but wasn't comfortable on bare skin. The chest strap could have been better but was reliable. The bag can simply be wiped clean with water or a damp cloth after the performance. The shine is retained and looks great with the silver zipper. You can often find sellers of similar gear at trade shows, but it will cost you almost 50% more than online and there are no size/color guarantees. Book ahead of the show to ensure you can stow your bags and receive a fresh, laundered bladder and tube.
