Ospreywomens Dyna 1.5 Dyna 1.5 Women's Running Hydration Vest (pack of 1)

This is the best hydration backpack/ vest! Forget Camlback, this one rocks!I usually wear size M-L clothing but after measuring my chest I went with the small size and it fits perfectly, I even have plenty of room to wear a jacket underneath. It has a bunch of pockets front and back, plenty of room for gels, your phone or even gloves in case it gets colder.The volume of the bladder is more than enough for my needs, perfect for trail runs and half marathons. As the bladder empties towards the end you have to suck quite hard to get any water out but then I also didn’t fill it all the way up.The bladder doesn’t leak and the water doesn’t slosh around too much, it sits in a comfortable position high up between the shoulder blades. My problem with the longer hydration packs was always that they almost touched my behind and sat way to low for my liking (I’m 5’5”, my torso is, well short because I’m a woman and most of the hydration packs are designed for men). This short vest takes care of this problem, it doesn’t interfere with movement while running. I’ve only ever worn it with shirts on and it was never chafing anywhere. I have to pull my shirt down a bit occasionally but that’s not a deal breaker! I love this vest so much, I’m glad I bought it!

Close fit, great pockets held extra food (bars, gel packets, even an apple in the back pockets) and also held an extra water filter for refilling if needed.

Bought this as I’ve started going on longer trail runs and need water in the unforgiving Florida weather.Took it for a 3 mile road run last night in 90 degree weather.I only filled the bladder half way (I had to look up how to open the bladder, turns out, super easy), and the water sloshing sound will take some getting used to.It didn’t chafe at all while I was running, hardly noticed the weight at all. I feel like if I walk (and sway my arms), it does pose a possible chafe risk, I’ll test it this Saturday.Love the color, super vibrant.I ordered the S/M one. I am 5’5’’ 150lbs. I don’t know bra size but I typically wear a medium in sports bras. This fit well, if not a little snug (which I like, no bounce!).I’ll update after I wear it for more than 5 miles.(Update 05/23 - wore it for a 14 mile hike, filled it to full twice. Will take some getting used to having the extra weight on my shoulder, I developed a bit of a neck ache from it but I think that will fade as I grow accustomed to carrying the extra weight. Didn’t chafe, but I did tuck the two little tightening straps on the sides into the pockets near them because I could tell they would chafe if I didn’t. Still, it held up well, and so far has definitely been worth the price. I filled all the pockets with various things, worked like a charm!)

I am 5'3" 150lbs, 32DD bra size. I ordered the WS/M size hydration vest. .The good: Love the color, great visibility on the road, light weight, seems durable, doesn't add much warmth/sweat. has enough pockets to fit keys, wallet, and phone. Vest also has pockets ideal for music player use. I have been using it for the last couple of months with no defects from the vest. Seems to be high quality.The mediocre: Not sure I got the right fit. Can rub on my arms when running due to the seams in the arm area. It doesn't seem to fit my chest right (I have a big chest). It goes over my upper chest, and leave my lower chest looking weird. Might not be a problem for others.The bad: Expensive, first 5ish uses of the badder tasted like plastic, but this has happened with every badder I have bought.Conclusion: I use this vest weekly and it is very functional, but if I would go into a store to find a proper fit if I buy one again.

This has been a great addition to my long runs. I used to run with water bottles in my hands and I can't believe how long it took me to buy this. It has been well worth the investment. It gives me extra support and I use the larger zippered pocket for my phone and don't have to worry about it popping out. I can easily store a couple gu packets and the magnetic clip for the water spout is perfect and strong enough that I don't need to perfectly place it when I'm not using it. I order the small and was nervous it would be too small, but it's perfect. I'm 5'3" and about 145lbs with broad shoulders and I'm so happy with the fit and dunction of this pack!
