5 of 5 Great fit May 30, 2014
Reviewer: Richard Gannon from England United Kingdom  
I recently bought the SJ vest for my Wife. She loves it! Training with it most days in prep for her next long trail race coming up! The fit is great, comfortable with easy access to bottles and pockets. Well done me for choosing it :)

5 of 5 Race vest April 28, 2014
Reviewer: Russell Morling from Maidstone, Kent United Kingdom  
First time I have purchased anything from Ultramarathonrunningstore. Got a call a few days after placing order for previous model of race vest. Advised out of stock but told latest version would be sent at no extra cost. I saved over £20, great customer service. Will defo use again in the future. Great range of products as well!

4 of 5 Best running bag I've ever used March 11, 2014
Reviewer: Adam Leadbetter from Cheshire United Kingdom  
I've had this bag for a couple of months now, but this weekend I used it in anger for the first time at the Bolton Hill Marathon. It carried full kit, water and food brilliantly.

when I first bought it, I was amazed by the lightness of the materials and the design aspects. It took me a while to dial the fit in - I'm right on the bottom end of the medium for chest size but as I'm taller than average for my width I didn't fancy a small. Using the full length of the rails for the straps sorted everything out though.

I'd definitely buy another (although maybe a v2.0) but I do have one or two minor gripes, hence the loss of a star. The gel pockets to the side of the bottle holders don't hold on to gels when you take a bottle out - at least not High5 gels. Maybe Gu or Clif with their shorter packets would stay in better. The phone pocket on the shoulder doesn't hold on to my phone (Samsung Galaxy Ace) so it doesn't quite work as advertised.

5 of 5 Useability February 28, 2014
Reviewer: Mark Robson from Bangor, Down United Kingdom  
A wonderful vest with great pockets and access ... And I love the stretchiness too. Well balanced too so it doesn't feel restrictive. Very glad I bought this !

5 of 5 Great item February 15, 2014
Reviewer: Robert Beech from Birkenhead, Merseyside United Kingdom  
Bought this for ultra runs and have tested it out already.  What a great item.

The kicker valves on the bottles in particular are brilliant once you get used to them.

Cant fault the item

Reviewer: Nina  
Useful both for long distances and for the short ones, when I put my gym shoes in it and run to the gym.

4 of 5 Small, light but capacius, no bouncing November 24, 2013
Reviewer: Francesco from Padova, Padova Italy  
On the back pack I could store a wind jacket, a light long sleeve shirt, a short sleeve shirt, a 70*140cm towel and shorts for swimming, one extra liter of water,... and there was still more spare room!
The side stretchable pockets (not water resistant) are good for food, smartphone, quick accessible items.
I replaced the 2 front UD 600ml bottles with 2 500ml soft flasks (a little too long, I secured them adding 2 cords) or 2 300ml bottles because I feel less bounce/slosh (however this is a personal feeling).
The front pockets above the bottles are too little for large smartphones.
So loaded the pack didn't bounce or chafe, you forget of it if not for the weight (of course).
I'm a male 180cm 75Kg with 97cm chest and went to Medium size: this is perfect (the Large size would be definetively too large).

4 of 5 comfortable October 29, 2013
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Milton Keynes, Bucks United Kingdom  
Only worn for one long run so far. Once I got used to it, I forgot I was wearing it.
Not masses of storage but adequate with some handy gel / food pockets.
