I like this hydration vest so much, I bought two of them!
I am a sucker for a pretty hydration pack that fits like a vest and has tons of storage, and this vest fits the bill perfectly.
The Nathan VaporAiress is a women’s specific fit that also features Nathan’s new Adaptive-Fit design, which means that you can easily adjust the pack for a personalized fit. Once it’s fitted properly, the vest sits right where it should with no movement or bouncing, it doesn’t rub or chafe and fits like a second skin.
Let’s talk pockets! The Nathan VaporAiress has a total of nine pockets: two upper chest stretch mesh pockets, two lower zippered water-resistant pockets, two lower stretch mesh pockets with holsters behind that you can stash more stuff in, a large rear kangaroo pocket (this is where you put the 2L hydration bladder, which comes included with the pack!), a large rear zippered pocket, and a huge slide-through lower back pocket. This is all in addition to the bungees, located on both the front and the back of the vest, as well as trekking pole attachments on the back.
I originally bought this vest as a hiking vest, but I loved it so much, I ordered a second one for running. It fits comfortably, it holds all my gear, and it looks great.
