A reliable companion for high-mileage days, the updated Ultra Vest 6.0 blends innovative design with excellent load stability and breathable comfort.Ultimate Direction says:Elevate your Ultra running experience with the redesigned Ultra Vest. Boasting a lightweight design, water resistant pockets, and ergonomic details, this vest was crafted for long miles. Two stretchy mesh side panels contour to your body in motion, while soft, breathable monomesh liners ensure comfort during extended miles on the trail. With a full-size range, this unisex vest comfortably accommodates most sizes.Our VerdictWeighing in around 222g for the medium, this 12-litre vest has been built with long-distance efforts in mind. The updated Comfort Cinch 3.0 system provides a secure fit without restricting movement, and the mesh construction maintains consistent airflow even when the pace picks up. I appreciated how the front bottle pockets sat just rightclose enough for quick access without bounceand the included 500ml flasks are soft and easy to drink from on the go.Theres a good mix of accessible storage too: the chest pockets take a phone without fuss, and the rear stretch stash space is large enough for a jacket or spare layer. The water-resistant main compartment gives extra peace of mind for valuables, and the rear bungee system secures everything in place nicely when the vest isnt fully loaded.Pole carry is flexible, working well from the front or back, and pairs well with the included bungee loops. I did find the sizing leans slightly roomy, so its worth double-checking measurements if you prefer a closer fit.- Reviewed by Ultralight Outdoor GearFeaturesIncludes 2 HydraPak Body Bottle 500’s with bungee loop bottle holders to keep bottles up and in place as you drinkSoft recycled monomesh liner is lightweight, breathable, and strong for next to skin comfortAdded air mesh panels behind bottle pockets offer extra comfort and chafe protection as the miles tick byIncludes four removable bungee loops with hooks to attach trekking poles; loops can be attached at front or back of vest for customizable trekking pole carry options, and stowed in nearby keyhole when not in use2 large zippered ripstop chest pockets are water and sweat resistant, and large enough to accommodate most phonesFront buckle static sternum straps give bounce-free stability for larger loads, and hook attachment lets you customize placement and fitLarge water-resistant main compartment with zippered clamshell opening Reservoir sleeve comfortably accommodates reservoir Stretch back passthrough pocket for ambidextrous access on the go; large enough for jacket, gloves, hat, layering system, quick stow items, and nutrition Bungee compression system that is clean, hidden, quick and adjustable while wearing SpecificationsSmallWeight: 213gCapacity: 12LHeight x Width: 38 x 35 cmMediumWeight: 222gCapacity: 12LHeight x Width: 40 x 37 cmLargeWeight: 234gCapacity: 12LHeight x Width: 41 x 40 cmMaterial & Construction84% Nylon, 16% ElastaneHelp & advice:Choosing a Rucksack
