Quality Piece of Kit (but larger size would be nice!)
The RunRep Running Vest for Women and Men with 1.5L Bladder is well made from quality materials. All stitching is good without any loose ends. Various straps and buckles allow the vest to adjusted to ensure a snug fit.In addition to the bladder compartment, the vest has numerous pockets of various sizes that can accommodate smaller items and a large rear pocket (5L capacity) that will hold small items of clothing There are two pockets on the front, one of which will securely hold all but the largest of mobile phones. The other is designed to hold a 0.5L drinks bottle (included). which is handy for carrying a sports drink.Overall, the RunRep Running Vest for Women and Men is well designed. However, it appears to have been designed for people who are built like racing snakes. I have a big chest and broad shoulders and struggled to get the vest on. Once it was on, it felt more like American Football shoulder pads than a vest. Apart from looking ungainly, accessing most of the pockets was difficult. This is a shame, as I was impressed by the design, layout and build quality. I would certainly consider buying a scaled up version or one with sufficient adjustment to suit people with a larger build.Overall, the RunRep Running Vest is a quality product and at current price of £34.99. is competitively priced with comparable products.Would recommend, but only to those with a smaller or athletic build.

Lots of Pockets
This running bladder vest is really good quality. The stitching is a lot better than some more expensive brands on the market. The straps are easy to adjust and it’s comfortable to wear on long runs. The 1.5l bladder compartment works exactly as it should do. It’s easy to fill and easy to drink from. I love that the vest has loads of pockets for keys and phone etc. There is also a pocket for a 0.5l water bottle which comes with the vest. It’s ultra lightweight so you can barely notice it when you’re running. It’s also breathable so your back doesn’t get sweaty because of it!

Excellent
This is an excellent running vest.Firstly its very lightweight, and the size adjustment is very good.It's very conformable to wear, you don't really know you're wearing it, and it doesn't move around as you run.There are plenty of pockets for phone and keys etc.The drinks bladder is very effective too, much better than carrying around a bottle!I think the price is fair for such a good running vest.I hope you find my review helpful.

This running vest has quickly become an essential part of my kit for both running and hiking. It’s got everything you need for a long workout—1.5L bladder for hydration, a handy water bottle, and space for a phone and other essentials. It’s lightweight and comfortable, which makes a big difference when you’re out for a couple of hours.The hydration bladder is easy to fill and doesn’t have that strange plastic taste you sometimes get with cheaper versions.

Plus, the vest has adjustable straps that really help fit it snugly against your body, meaning there’s very little bouncing, even when it's full. The included water bottle is a nice extra—perfect for keeping some electrolyte mix handy alongside the plain water in the bladder.The phone holder fits my smartphone comfortably, and there’s still space for a few energy gels, keys, and even a small snack. It’s well-designed for ease of access; I can reach everything I need without breaking my stride. The vest itself is breathable and doesn’t cause overheating, even on warmer days.Pros:Includes a 1.5L hydration bladder and an extra water bottle—perfect for staying hydrated.Adjustable straps for a snug fit and minimal bouncing.Lightweight, breathable material—comfortable for long runs or hikes.Ample storage pockets for phone, keys, and energy gels.Cons:The bladder can be a bit fiddly to clean, especially around the cap, but it’s manageable with a brush.Might be a bit tight if you’re wearing multiple layers underneath during winter.This running vest has made long runs and hikes much easier, with everything I need right within reach. It’s comfortable, functional, and well-designed—definitely a great investment if you’re into endurance activities and want to keep your hands free and your essentials close.

an excellent running vest for comfort and convenience
The vest has ergonomic design that fits snugly without feeling restrictive.with adjustable straps on the sides and front , it offers a personalized fit, which which reduces bouncing while your on the move. the fabric is lightweight and breathable. it doesn't feel bulky at all, which is a plus for speed.this vest has plenty of well thought out pockets. there front pockets that hold soft water bottles (provided) or gels (not provided)the back pocket where the extra water reserve is could be taken out and used as a jacket holder. plus it has zippered compartments to hold keys, phone or air pods.a small drawback is the front or side straps for my partner who is 6'2 in height, if there was more added strap adjustments it would be close to a perfect running vest. although it had a good fit if we added full water in the back reserve he wouldn't be able to fit it anymore. it becomes too tight and limits his chest expansion for deep breaths. as for me I'm 5'2 so it was perfect.overall this vest was an excellent

Heel handig - zit meteen goed
Ik had deze eigenlijk gekocht in afwachting van een andere duurdere vest die ik niet tijdig ging hebben en uiteindelijk vond ik deze veel eenvoudiger en handiger in gebruik. Ik gebruik het linker tasje met rits voor de smartphone en daar zit hij echt goed omdat die stof ook wat steviger is en de smartphone toch wat zwaarder. Bovendien is hij heel makkelijk bereikbaar daar. Verder nog heel wat handige en toegankelijke zakjes. Past ook heel goed, makkelijk aanpasbaar en nergens naden of lusjes of stiksels die schuren of irriteren. En dat allemaal voor een zeer lage prijs. Super aanrader!

Really Good Vest for a Steal of a Price
I have used about every type and style of running gear out there. I'm not a huge fan of vests typically because I feel they restrict the chest expansion and thus my breathing. However, for long hot summer runs where you need top carry hydration just to be safe, I would prefer this vest over most waist packs that I have.Material: all of this material is very comfortable and soft. I don't think I could wear it without an undershirt as on a long run of 10 or more miles I feel that it would lead to some chafing and or discomfort.Fit: The fit of this vest is probably one of the highlights of the product. Although I'm not a huge fan of the plastic clips in front they do a very good job of holding in place. All three of the straps in front are highly and easily adjusted so that you can fidget with them on the run. All of them do a very good job of staying in place unless you release them. I especially like the adjustable straps on the side of the pack that allows it to just the placement of the front of the pack for most comfort. Most packs I have do not have this feature and now I am starting to wonder why.Storage: This thing has a ton of storage options. On the left chest there is a pocket that is waterproof and padded that fits most smartphones very well. It is easy to get to and easy to pull anything in and out of. And the right side there is a smaller pouch that works great for airpods or similar cases for headphones. You could also get away with stashing some gels or gummies in these pockets. In the back there is a zipper stash that is great for more gels or nutrition that you would want not as easily accessible. There's also a stash pouch that does not zipper that you can access from both sides for stashing away any rain gear hats gloves or other items you may not need during your whole run. There is another water bottle storage compartment on the right chest area. It comes with a bottle that fits in there, but I have used it to store a drinking bottle for my dog. Again this is a very nice feature not found on most vests.Bladder: the bladder is very high quality thick bladder that is going to get a lot of use before any sort of issues might arise. It connects well and the hose leading out of it clips securely to the right strap of the vest. It takes a little bit of practice to get used to the bite down valve, however after a long run I was accessing it without even thought. I'm not sure why they made the hose so thick and insulated, maybe to avoid freezing or getting super warm with the weather. But it seems like it's a little over engineered.Overall: in general I was very surprised by how much I liked this fest. It stays secure has a lot of fit options and is generally comfortable for the longest of long runs. The material and construction are well done and well thought out. The overall design and storage compartments are well placed well constructed and a lot of thought went into deep design of this vest. Whether you're a new runner or highly experienced runner I feel like this vest is a valuable addition to any gear closet for your favorite runner, hiker, outdoor enthusiasts.

Wish I could give it a 4.5
Ultramarathoner reporting in!I really wish I could give this a 4.5 because there are a couple of small things that I'd change, but overall, this is a winner—especially for the reasonable price.PROS:- I've owned several hydration running vests and this is my favorite design, giving the most efficient capacity-to-size ratio- I loooove that you can have a large-capacity bladder in the back (included!) plus a collapsible bottle (included!) with your electrolytes available simultaneously- For the price, it's genuinely great that they provided a high-quality bladder and bottle- I love the waterproof/insulated pouch on the front; it happens to fit my iPhone 15 Pro (NOT max) perfectly even though that's probably not what it's meant for- I also have plenty of space for AirPods, a portable charger, a couple of gels, and could even cram a lightweight layer in the back.- The stretchy design is genius; it makes it mold to my body to reduce bouncing and discomfort- The triple buckle in front is so smart and allows for multiple arrangements- I've never owned a hydration backpack that tightens around the back like this one and it's a game-changer; I love not having a tight strap across my stomach!- The clasp on the top of the hydration bladder is secure and easy to useCONS:- The biggest con for me is that the bite nozzle on the straw is finicky and even when you bite it perfectly, the water flow is too low for my liking; I felt like I put a lot of energy into getting water- I'm not sure why the straw/tube is insulated but the space for the hydration bladder is not. I suppose it could keep the smaller amounts of water from icing up in the tube in cold weather, but I live in a very cold climate and if the tube gets cold, the bladder will ice up, too. The insulated tube just makes it heavy and it flops around (the anchor hook for it is a bit too wide so it doesn't stay put, and even if it did, the end would still flop)- Like pretty much all hydration packs, I have to decide between having it strapped tight enough to not bounce, and yet having it loose enough that it doesn't impact my breathing. This does it better than most, but it's not perfect. I loosened it about 22 miles into my run and was like "WOW, I CAN BREATHE!" but then it was instantly flapping around.- The universe has yet to develop a hydration pack that doesn't rub/irritate my shoulders when I wear a tank top. I have sensitive skin so it's not their fault, but I thought it was worth noting.Overall, given what you get for the price, this is my favorite running pack.
