5 of 5 Great bag, disgusting bladder February 3, 2014
Reviewer: Matthew Sleightholme from Reading, Berks United Kingdom  
The bag itself is great, fully loaded its not rubbing or moving, lightly loaded just as good.
Only downside is the hydrapak bladder is basically like drinking plastic. I've tried, freezing and baking soda so far but no help - anyone got good suggestions for making it better I'd love to know. Assume at this point you'll buy a different bladder.

5 of 5 Nathan VAPORWRAP Race Hydration Vest January 16, 2014
Reviewer: James from Jersey, Channel Islands  
Only used this for a few 8milers so far, but once the straps are adjusted it's so comfortable.  The front phone pocket works perfectly for HTC smart phones & the front bottle holders are making life much easier so haven't had the need to test the bladder yet.

5 of 5 Nathan VAPORWRAP Race Hydration Vest December 28, 2013
Reviewer: Tristram Lake from Budapest, Budapest Hungary  
It's great. Big enough for longer runs where a bottle of water and a couple of gels are not enough. Small and light enough for the shorter runs for it to be a viable (more comfortable) option even just to take a 1/2 litre of water.

5 of 5 So comfortable October 25, 2013
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Evesham, Worcestershire  
I previously used a basic Camelbak for trail running but found it short on storage. Having entered more long distance trail races I wanted something to carry more gear without being uncomfortable. After much internet research I chose the Nathan Vaporwrap. I opted for the men's version as I wasn't too keen on the white ladies version and the men's version had an extra pocket!

Wow it is so comfortable even with a full bladder and lots of gear. The pockets on the straps at the front and side are so convenient so you can refuel without stopping. There is lots of room for a waterproof, extra base layer, dry socks, buffs etc. There are pockets for gels, snacks, phone. I love the fact the bladder is easy to clean as you can turn it inside out. I also like the front bottle holders too, making it versatile to run without the bladder or have a choice of energy drinks or water.
All in all I am very impressed with this pack, its comfort, practicality and versatility.

4 of 5 Backpack September 21, 2013
Reviewer: Gareth from Gloucester, Gloucestershire United Kingdom  
Lovely fit, the only bit I didn't like was the taste on that mouth piece - it does need a fair bit of cleaning before using it!  Don't think I can use this on my run commute to work, the storage compartments are too small!

5 of 5 Fantastic September 3, 2013
Reviewer: J E Allison from Leeds, West Yorkshire United Kingdom  
Clearly designed by runners for runners. Longest run so far is 4 hours but it was so comfortable I bearly noticed, even when full! My IPhone does fit in the phone pocket so I can't even have that minor grumble. Love the attention to detail and the lifetime guarantee!

5 of 5 Excellent August 14, 2013
Reviewer: Neil Bailey from Chelmsford, Essex United Kingdom  
Excellent piece of kit. Done three two hours runs in it so far and wouldn't even know I'm wearing it. Front pockets make using my phone for music etc easy.  Only down side is that the removable front pocket won't fit an iPhone.

5 of 5 Great piece of kit August 5, 2013
Reviewer: DJ from United Kingdom  
I've now used the Vaporwrap on a few 3-4 hour runs and I have to say that it's the most comfortable pack I've ever worn for trail running.

The fit is perfect and very easy to adjust on the move. Once adjusted, the pack is snug and I haven't noticed it at all, whether I'm running or scrambling.

The pockets are really well thought out and everything you need is within easy reach. The main compartment has plenty of space for waterproofs, a thermal top, first aid kit, extra food and so on.

The bottle holders are very well placed and my bottles didn't bounce around at all. I haven't used the bladder, so I can't comment on that.

In terms of build quality, the pack is really well made and I am pretty sure it's going to last a long time.

Finally, I received excellent service from Keith at The Ultramarathon Running Store: great advice and very prompt delivery.

5 of 5 Fits like a glove... July 21, 2013
Reviewer: David Allan from London, London United Kingdom  
Once you've found the straps to adjust its fit!

Bought it as I'm bored of the inconvenience of hydration bladders. It was a toss up between this and the ultimate direction SJ. This just pipped it due to the extra pocket (fits an iPhone). Only downside is the lack of water protection but its nothing a little bag can't fix.

It was delivered on the Tuesday after a Sunday night order. Very quick.
