Review on ๐ŸŒฐ CamelBak Medium Nano Vest (2 X 500ml) Quick Stow Flask - Autumn-Winter 2018 by David Dreher

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect with small adjustments

This vest is amazing (with a few adjustments) and for the money you can't beat it. I am 5ft 9.5in, 180lbs, medium size fits perfectly. Since the bottles sit a bit lower on the chest I ordered the camel extension tubes and they are perfect. There's also a 1 liter platypus bladder that fits nicely in your back pocket. And if you tie knots with fasteners (make a bunny loop), then the vest will not untie when running, and the knots are easy to adjust if necessary. The vest is very light and breathable. It fits my iPhone 7 Plus in a zippered phone pocket as well as side pockets. I still usually carry my phone, car keys, gels and maybe a little snack like nuts and that's all great. Well done although the side pocket was a bit loose so I relined it and that fixed the problem before it became one. All in all I used the best for about 2-3 weeks probably 60 miles and really enjoyed it. With extension hoses and a bladder, the total cost was about $75-$80 and I don't think you can do better than that.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
