💦 Ultimate Hydration on-the-go: CamelBak Flash Belt 17oz Review

Perfect for those long walks I take. To clarify some of the things others have said. All straps are easily adjustable and there are plenty of little ties to hold the excess to keep it from dangling. In addition, the drinking bottle holder is also suitable for round drinking bottles other than the ones supplied, as long as they are not too wide. The only real downside is that a modern phone doesn't fit in your pocket to play your music as it's too small, basically only good for keys or a…

I bought this to carry electrolytes without a water bottle. I've already worn it for a few runs. Once I tightened the straps to the correct height, everything was fine. It rocks a bit, which is to be expected with a water bottle tied to your waist, but it's not bad. My iPhone 10 and gel pack fit in the small pocket. I suppose I could stick another gel or key or whatever in there as well, but I haven't tried. The water bottle is really great, doesn't leak at all. Overall I am very happy with my…

Bottle of good size and easy to use; The one-way valve works well and doesn't leak even if you accidentally leave it open for a while. When properly attached, the "bounce" of the bottle is kept to a minimum and does not bother. The zippered pocket easily stores enough protein gel or small energy/refill bars. Also great for storing your phone and keys when you don't want to use a bracelet or carry it in your pockets. Too much filling makes the bag visibly bloated, so your hand could hit it while

Don't believe what you read about the competition. They *SAY* one size fits all, but at least from what I've seen, only this one does what it says on the tin. I wear 40 inch shorts and they are comfortable. I haven't found anything else that suits me without being at the absolute top of its range. In terms of comfort, it tends to be SLIGHTLY peppy when I get to work. Literally after the first sip of water, it sags and I don't even notice it anymore. I think it really helped with the dual lap…

Over the past 14+ years I have had many bottle carrier straps, mainly from the Camelbak brand but there are others. This is my second favourite. This strap puts the bottle in the most horizontal position of any strap I've used and it really helps keep the bottle from bouncing compared to all other straps I've used - as long as I have enough straps have stretched. Unfortunately, this position also makes it easier for the bottle to fall out compared to a strap with a more upright bottle, so an…
