Anyone who hikes, runs or trail runs knows how important it is to stay well hydrated on the go. Hydration systems with a water bladder and drinking tube are a classic and reliable solution. You carry the reservoir in a compact backpack or vest, with a tube running over your shoulder. A quick sip from the bite valve, drink, and off you go again. Ideal for longer hikes or runs.
These systems allow you to carry larger amounts of water, often up to two litres. The weight is evenly distributed against your back and, thanks to leak-proof valves, the system stays watertight.
Trail runners and ultralight hikers can no longer do without a running vest. It lets you carry all your essentials with ease: keys, an energy bar and soft flasks filled with water or sports drink. These soft flasks mould to your body and shrink as they empty, ensuring maximum comfort while moving.
For shorter distances or training sessions, a running belt is a practical alternative. Compact around the waist, with space for just the essentials. No shoulder straps, so it’s easy on your back.
A running vest fits closer to the body and distributes weight evenly. This keeps everything firmly in place while running and gives you quicker access to drinks and snacks.
