Be the First to Know when new UD products become available.

Featuring 12 L of volume and a variety of features, The UD Peter Bakwin Adventure Vest allows you to stay hydrated and comfortable on any size adventure from quick outings to all-day expeditions.

The pack Peter Bakwin always wanted did not exist – so he designed this one.  The 12 ounce PB Adventure Vest has the same abundant storage options as the SJ Ultra Vest, but with a large 8.5 litre main compartment, constructed with a unique one-piece pull cord for instant expandability or compression.  With a special pocket for a locater beacon, and a system for readily attaching trekking poles or an ice axe, this is the most comfortable pack ever for hiking, running and climbing.

"The Adventure Vest is the pack I’ve always wanted but wasn’t available… until now!
Peter Bakwin

Ultimate Direction products May 5, 2013
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Finland  
First of all, thank you for offering products from Ultimate Direction online for European customers. Before finding your webstore, I knew of no way to get their products delivered to Europe.

As for the product itself, based on my first test, which was a 6 hour rogaining race, the vest met all of my expectations. Enough room to get all my stuff in the backpack and the fit was so good I didn't notice the vest most of the time.

A bit of warning regarding the size though, I have a 37 inch chest but bought the smaller size based on other online reviews and it fits me very well, so I expect that the sizing guidelines for UD are a bit misleading (S/M size is for up to 33 inch according to UD).

first use March 13, 2013
Reviewer: gaetan tellier from caumont sur durance, vaucluse France  
for me, it is the first time with bottle behind and after the firts use, they move a little. but i think after several use, it will be not a problem
The weight of the bag is ok, a lot of pocket. good !!

Great all round eperience. March 1, 2013
Reviewer: Steve Smith from Waurn Ponds, Victoria Australia  
My PB Adventure vest does all it is designed to do.  Fits perfectly, no bounce and no rub.  I would recommend it to anyone who cannot stand the 'sloshing' noise of a bladder style hydration pack.
The storage is well placed and allows for items to be accessed without taking pack off such as gels, tablets and of course water bottles.
The pack comes into its own with the main storage compartments having elastic webbing to secure items and stop any movement.  Once you have the pack on the ability to pull the pack against your back then makes it 'part of you' and not sitting on your back.  This 'no bounce' feeling is what has won me over.
It is an expensive pack but its top of the range for a reason.  I can find no faults at all and I would have paid more for it if thats what it took to get my hands on it.
IF your serious about ultrarunning and don't want a bladder on your back then give this a strong consideration.
