Buy this for Belt Packs

I've been using FuelBelt for years and run long distances every week. I have trained for two marathons and several other distances including a triathlon. I've gotten tired of the FuelBelt lately because the bottles fall out when the rubber wears out. Bottles also leak when mouthpieces wear out. This belt is comfortable, lightweight and machine washable. It is almost entirely free of cracks and has a good adjustment to fit snugly around the waist. I don't like over tightening the belt because it causes discomfort in the digestive tract. But even with a slightly loose fit, this strap minimizes bounce. It also has mini bungees to allow you a small adjustment of tension on the fly. I rarely fill the bottle to the brim, so that helps too. When you fill the bottle all the way there will definitely be some bouncing, but it's tolerable. Do not put this belt in the dryer. On the go, you can easily remove the bottle with one hand and put it away. I need two hands to attach it securely, but I can do it calmly. When the bottle is under half, you can remove it with one hand (simply insert and don't tighten the mini bungee). It should stay in place unless you're running really fast. I run at an 8.5 to 10 mile pace, so not very fast. Much better than FuelBelt. It also has a small pocket for keys, snacks etc. I recently trained for a half marathon with this belt and had no problems. The mouthpiece does not leak, it is easy to open, close and drink on the go.
