I bought this hydration vest when I first started transitioning from shorter runs to longer runs, especially on trails. Personally, I prefer having two soft flasks on my chest over a reservoir on my back that could slosh around. I was afraid that running with a vest would be uncomfortable, but I swear, I forget I have this on sometimes; it’s very comfortable and breathable. There are plenty of options for storage as well. I put my phone on my right side, my earbuds and other small items in the zipped pocket on the left, and, for the especially long runs, I carry a small medical kit, a windbreaker, a hat, and gloves in the back. I can access all of these items without even taking off the vest. I even use this for some light and fast hiking. Nothing beats Salomon ... MoreI bought this hydration vest when I first started transitioning from shorter runs to longer runs, especially on trails.

I bought this to replace my Ultimate Direction vest that is now too big from the weight I have lost cycling and trail running. I just took this out on a 2x loops 15 mile Dog Mountain / Auspurger trail run yesterday. It took me a few minutes to dial in the fit but once I had the vest locked in it performed great. Yes, it does get hot with padded back but it was also a hot day in the 80's and steep trail as that run was nearly 6,000 feet in gain. I appreciated that extra padding at times as well. I could drink from water bottles without removing them. I like the slip pockets for Larabars, snacks, you could even stuff a lightweight windbreaker, gloves or beanie in them for easy access. The zippered pocket was super handy for my ID, extra set of wired headphones, cell ... MoreI bought this to replace my Ultimate Direction vest that is now too big from the weight I have lost cycling and trail running.

I wish I had this two weeks ago when I ran the Timberline Trail around Mt Hood. I will test more extensively on Loowit Trail here soon around Mt St Helens. I did not have any neck chaffing as some other have mentioned.

After reading all the glowing reviews of the Adv Skin 5, I may have gotten my hopes up a little too high. I like that I can carry water, food, and have a place to stash extra gear for when I find myself overheating during a long run in the winter. I’m 5’ 11”, 170 lbs, and perfectly between sizes. I find the medium a little too small and the large a little too big. The medium chafes my neck on the left side, and I don’t like the feeling of the lowest segment of the draw cord against my upper abdomen. with the large, there’s too much bounce in the water bottles, and the fit is too sloppy overall. As for pockets, there is definitely plenty of space, but i really wish there was a dedicated phone pocket. The zipped pocket on the left is too deep and wide, so the phone ... MoreAfter reading all the glowing reviews of the Adv Skin 5, I may have gotten my hopes up a little too high.

The zipped pocket on the left is too deep and wide, so the phone ends up horizontal and bumping up against my side, which is uncomfortable. Overall, while it does the job, I’m not nearly as satisfied with the vest as I expected to be.

I owned the AdvSkin 12 for a year or so before picking up this new model of the AdvSkin 5. It's nearly identical save less space to cram things. That being said, I can fit everything I'd take with me in the 12 into this 5 with no issues. It's pretty impressive how much it can hold. I'm 6'1" and 190lbs and the large fits me well. Other's have complained about neck chaffing? Not for me. This thing has performed flawlessly. It's a bit hot but I've never owned a pack that wasn't. I have no issues drinking out of the bottles, but if you do, Salomon sells extensions that you can trim to your exact needs. The reason the pros choose this pack--even pros not sponsored by Salomon who then have to put tape over the logos to hide them--is because they simply make the best ... MoreI owned the AdvSkin 12 for a year or so before picking up this new model of the AdvSkin 5.

I bought this pack in May for marathon training. I used it daily and it was great. It held all my stuff, didn’t bounce around, and was exactly what I needed. It did chafe my neck a lot but I think that’s just how these things work. In August I noticed that the stitching was coming undone. I take care of my equipment so I was surprised by this. Seems like a craftsmanship issue. I ended up filing a warranty claim and it was approved. They replaced my pack. Kudos to Salomon for standing by their product. Hopefully the new pack when it arrives won’t have same issue.
This is my second iteration of this product. The bottles are not as secure and bounce around when half empty. This is annoying but manageable. What is much worse is the chafing on the neck. This leaves a nasty abrasion after every wear. Never had this issue with precious versions, or similar models from other brands. Very disappointed and not fit for purpose.
Bought a size medium based on the size chart but it was too tight. Replaced it with a large and it fits much better.The bottle are fantastic. I don’t feel like it’s bouncing around at all and they are really easy to drink out of. I like that I can squeeze/feel the bottles to see how much is left in them. Can’t do that with a bladder.It’s very light and stretchy. Confirms very nicely to my body and doesn’t feel too tight or loose anywhere.Downsides…my arms rub the front of the pack when I run. Have only done 14 miles and it didn’t bother me all that much. Hoping that’s the case for runs of 20-50 miles as well.While it does have a pocket to hold a bladder, there doesn’t seem to be a clear way to run the hose up front. I’m going to have to figure out some way ... MoreBought a size medium based on the size chart but it was too tight. Replaced it with a large and it fits much better.The bottle are fantastic.

I’m going to have to figure out some way to attach the hose if Indont want it just hanging there.
Bought this about a month ago to start training for my first 50k. So far I’ve used it on 10 miles, 15 mile, and 27 mile runs with no issues. Carries plenty of water and all the food I need with an abundance of of extra space. Some of the reviews complained of lots of back sweat which I did notice only after my runs, it never bothered me nor did I notice while running. No chafing, no break in period, my third run with it was over 27 miles. I did buy the Salomon bladder that lots of reviews said ended up breaking early so we will see if that becomes an issue but correct try I love it. Sizing was spot on with the guide.
Unfortunately this vest is soo hot, even without the pouch for the bladder and bladder in it. In the fall I was running and I was the only person sweating ... please please please make another without it being so hot to wear.I couldn't image wearing this in the summer on a long run where I'll need the bladder.But this winter it really helps to keep me warm! Maybe Salomon call this the winter vest and make a light/cool/breathable one for warn/hot weather... promise I will buy the cool new vest like so many others :-)The fit it awesome, even for someone like me who is heavy chested, I can't wear very many vests due to that but this vest forms perfectly. To accommodate for my large chest I went with an XL too big but I can adjust it.Thanks for making this, now ... MoreUnfortunately this vest is soo hot, even without the pouch for the bladder and bladder in it.

I didn't know packs could be this good. I used a certain two-worded competitor brand for several years (two different models), and just assumed they were the best I could get for training and racing. One was designed specifically for racing and was a poor experience during 50/100ks due to bouncing and chafing. This pack blows those two out of the water. It's seamless, light and I experience no bouncing whatsoever with two full bottles on the front (I alternate between two Hydrapaks and the Salomon ones this came with, same slim dimensions/capacity and both work great). No need for bottle straws given how ergonomically the bottle pockets are placed.The number of pockets and their placement works well for me - routinely carry phone, small thing of bear spray, key, ... MoreI didn't know packs could be this good.

Particularly like the trash pocket. It's much easier to grab things from the back, too, than it was with my previous packs. Make it even lighter and cooler by taking out the bladder insulation sleeve if you're not using a bladder. Will not hesitate to use this for 50-100mi races.
