Review on InnerFit Insulated Hydration Backpack and Water Bladder - Durable Camel Backpack Hydration Pack for Running, Hiking, Biking, and Outdoor Activities - Lightweight Water Backpack by Tom Tucker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for long runs as advertised

Pros: I started training for a marathon over the summer and just finished last weekend. However, this pack was used on 16-22 mile runs for several months. I also used it for the marathon itself. In general I liked it. The pack is excellent value for money and performs as well as or better than quality moisture packs. When running, there is little to no movement (I have a 5ft 9in, 155 lb male). No part of the backpack has fallen apart, the bladder has not leaked, and the straps do not need additional adjustment. Cons: The clip holding the hose came loose after a few runs (it didn't break, it just came loose after a while.) I've found it's much more reliable if you attach it with two straps, and not with a . I attached it to one of the shoulder straps and the extra tail after it goes through the clip. Since then it hasn't been a problem. Also, there are no pockets that are convenient to access while running. I understand they don't advertise it as such, but if it did I literally don't need any other gear when running. Instead, I have a small fanny pack for carrying electrolytes, carbs, etc. The usual non-running cargo, including my phone, fits nicely into regular pockets.

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • easy maintainability
