S/LAME - Broke in under 25km
1 month ago
Bottle loop ripped off within 25km of my first run using this vest. Given the price and an expectation of decent quality from S/Lab products this is just rubbish. Aside from the actual damage, the bottle pockets generally are a bit too big for the provided bottles, so even on the side that didn’t break, the bottle slips free of the loop when less than full, and falls into the pocket, but has the potential to bounce back out once it is free of the securing loop. The tensioning cords at the top are quite nice but there is nowhere to secure the excess, so they get in the way at the front. And there is nowhere decent to store poles, and no way of getting them stored without taking the bag off. I had high expectations, but it isn’t up to the job.
No, I do not recommend this product

Best Long Distance Running Pack Ever
1 month ago
I used this pack for a 220 mile non stop ultra marathon. I absolutely loved it, the access to your gear via the central rear zip is fantastic, especially in the middle of the night when exhausted it just makes your life easier. Great back side pouches for poles, doesn’t have the quiver attachment which is a shame. The front zipped pockets are not stretchy but the they feel huge. It’s a little heavier than my ADV skin 12 but the weight distribution in my opinion is far superior to anything I’ve used before, I even wore it on a red hot day with nothing underneath and received no chaffing. Love it.
Yes , I recommend this product

Sizing!

Salomon designers, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, start making smaller chest circumference packs again (xxs). There are so many petite women athletes who need good running vests (especially multi-day packs like this one). I love my SLab Ultra vest, but need something with more volume for fast packing. Can you all please make your packs in all sizes????
Yes , I recommend this product

one of the best

I was testing it for more than a month for different types of runs, including lots multi days runs in the mountains. I think this is one of the best vests with more volume on the market. Pockets are amazing, fit is good.

I really wanted to love this vest.
4 weeks ago
I've been looking for a larger capacity vest for Cocodona 250 and I really thought (hoped?) this was going to be the one. I love my Active Skin 12 vest! This was almost perfect but had two major dealbreakers for me. First, the material between the shoulder straps rubbed very intensely on my neck. The material between the shoulder straps that was causing the issue seems unnecessary to the overall design of the vest. At first I thought the vest may be too small so I exchanged a small for a medium. It didn't matter. I tried wearing the pack unloaded and fully loaded and still experienced the rubbing. This would result in major chaffing for me on a large effort. Second, I tested the vest on a very easy 5 mile trail run. I was wearing a simple running t-shirt and the lower clip (for the bungee straps) on the front left side for the chest folded behind the soft binding material and caused pretty significant chaffing on my chest. Both of these issues may just be me-problems, perhaps this pack just doesn't work for my body type (5'6' female, 145 lbs). Unfortunately I had to return this product and the search continues. Otherwise the concept is cool and I really wish the design worked for me.
