Review on 💦 Nathan NS4196-0015-00 QuickStart Hydration Vest: Stay Hydrated on the Go with 4L Capacity by Nate Nelson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A simple package is enough.

Likes: Easy to fill, doesn't bounce too much, dries quickly, fits my phone, keys and concealed carry with little fuss. The elastic case fits perfectly on my Pixel3 with protective case. A zippered pocket fits my keys and an extra magazine and leaves room. Dislikes: Chest straps don't stay tight. I've found that using an elastic band to hold the "tail" of the strap in place solves the problem. I just have to check the elastic before each run to make sure it hasn't snapped. Conclusion: This is what I was looking for. Lightweight backpack for water and minimal items for the daily runs. I usually run for an hour or more, and water helps in warm weather. Haven't encountered any chafing or other fit issues yet. Aside from the previously mentioned chest walking issue, the only other thing is mine is now white with sweat. That's my problem, nothing to do with the performance of the product.
