Ridge Packs Running Hydration Pack - Includes Horizontal 2L Bladder - Waterproof Breathable Fabric - Gray - 6L Backpack with Phone Pocket - Also for Hiking, Cycling, Mountain Biking, Skiing

The Ridge Hydration Pack, patent pending design, is made to allow you to run at an optimal forward lean. This is achieved by incorporating a hydration bladder that fits in the backpack horizontally. And the best materials went into making this pack lightweight and durable. It’s made with extra strong polyester thread and ripstop nylon fabric. The shoulder straps contain EVA foam for extra comfort. It will keep you hydrated and can hold snacks, a smart phone and clothing like a light jacket. You'll be energized and protect your gear from rain, wind, and snow. The fabric is both waterproof and breathable! This means any wet clothing in the pack will dry as you run. And, the tube exit point is designed to prevent water from entering the pack at this location. The horizontal 2 liter bladder can accommodate either water or electrolyte drink to keep you at your best. It’s designed to be quickly disconnected from the intake tubing to allow for quick fill ups. And, it has a wide opening for easy filling, and access to clean the reservoir when needed. The 2 liter capacity gives you the ability to go on adventures without frequent refills.

• OPTIMAL ACTIVITY WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION - Wearing this hydration pack for running will allow you to run faster than wearing a traditional hydration pack. The key to an optimal running “forward lean” between 3 and 8 degrees is having a high center of gravity. This is achieved by incorporating a horizontal bladder. The design also allows you to move more freely with other sporting activities. The backpack itself weighs only 6 oz. And the reservoir, 4.7 oz., is located close to the wearer’s back.
• HIGH-FLOW, LEAKPROOF VALVE - The included horizontal 2 Liter hydration water bladder is designed to fit into the back pack horizontally. It has a high-flow bite valve and high-flow 5/16” diameter tubing. In addition, the leakproof shutoff valve prevents the bite valve from being accidentally activated. The bladder also includes a quick-disconnect feature for fast access, and a wider opening for cleaning. It also features easy one-handed filling and is BPA- and BPS-free.
• DESIGNATED GEAR COMPARTMENT - There’s a designated area in the hydration pack backpack to keep a lightweight jacket, snacks, and other items. There’s also a pocket that can accommodate a large smartphone. The backpack is made with a waterproof breathable fabric and a waterproof zipper.
• CONFIGURED IN THE USA – Ridge Packs backpacks are designed in the USA. The water backpack is “Assembled in the USA”, and the backpack water bladder is “Made in the USA”.
• PATENT PENDING – The innovative design includes other aspects in addition to the horizontal bladder for example convex sides, a bidirectional guide loop for the tubing, shoulder straps with midpoint buckles for easy on/off transitions, and better fitting shoulder straps due to the inherent dimensions of the backpack. The U.S. patent application number is 16/847,099. Ridge Packs offers a 60-day money back guarantee if for any reason you’re not satisfied with the backpack’s performance.
