If i had watched this video before, I would not have bought this vest. (Crying...) I invested a lot for my first trail vest, but really hateed that jiggle jiggle the very first time I tried it (I even thought that was normal for a vest since it was my first one)

Glad I watched, will not be buying one of those! I am looking for a vest for a marathon where I can carry lots of water, without needing to rely on aid stations, any recommendations? Lightweight but definitely no bouncing bottles!
Hi Marc, I tried that. But still not a comfortable amount of bounce. And I think you really want to be able to use this without having to carry stuff in the back. It’s an odd one as the rest of the vest feels pretty well thought out in the main.
I have a iphone 13 pro, and a ricoh gr3 pocket camera. can you suggest of which running vest to use to allow me to take them out to take photo or video or searching the map very easily? Thanks
i am using the Ultraspire Alpha 3.0 as my running vest. i can put my iphone on the side pocket vertically. putting on the front pocket is way to shaky when running. for the pocket camera i can only put it inside the bag, which takes a pretty long time to take it out.
I am doing research for this vest. Seen many reviews say that is a failed product, but I still want to give it a try. LOL. It could be the sizing issue... with a smaller size, it could have no bouncing at all. or I would use the backpack for storing water flack instead...
Hi (Kieran @manvmiles here), I don’t think a size down would change the bounce and it’s a vest that comes up quite small elsewhere anyway. Would recommend looking at alternatives like the Salomon or Montane.
Thankts for the review. Any suggestions for a good belt or minimal vest for a 15-20km run to carry a (soft) water bottle for warm summer times? Most options I found are designed for 25km+ runs with rather large water bottle options and lots of storage places I don't need (which makes it typically rather big then).
@@TheRunTesters they teamed up with gucci last year, sponsor celebs and feature frequently in fashion articles. They have stores on most high streets too so a huge part of their expense as a company is on branding/marketing. I'm not doubting the quality of their products but i don't think they are focused on competitive running wear. My only experience with a running product of theirs was a waterproof lightweight outerpants for fra race regulations in the UK and my immediate thoughts after using it was that the design wasn't well thought out.
