Durable!
I have owned my Pinnacle vest for 2 years and have definitely put it through the test with multiple ultras - several 50 milers, a 100k, and a 100 miler. It has proven its durability. So much storage areas and various sized pockets that I can find a place for any running essential. After long runs, I just toss it in the washer therefore it has even lasted through many washing machine cycles. I am not a fan of the insulated bladder it comes with so I replace it with a regular 2L Nathan bladder - I find these to be much easier to fill and MUCH easier to clean as you can turn them inside out. No amount of insulation can survive the AZ heat so it wasn't a feature that was important or beneficial to me. A great vest overall!

Pockets galore!
This pack is comfy and holds everything I need to bring-water, gels, extra layer, small handheld water, phone, snacks-with room to spare. I rated 4/5 stars only because I wish it had additional straps to tighten it up, it has just the two across the chest, but as my water empties I’d like to pull it up a littler higher. Overall it’s great!

SO MANY POCKETS!!!
If I could give this 30 stars, I would! Have had it for about 3 months. Had a previous Nathan hydration pack that worked great for 10+ years but didn't have as many pockets as I'd like so I bought this. OH THE POCKETS!!! Soo many pockets that I'm still finding new ones 3 months later. It was truly intelligently designed so that you can reach all of your stuff while you're running. Amazing. And it fits like a glove. It doesn't bounce and doesn't chafe. It fits like a piece of clothing vs a pack. If I'd known how great this pack could be, I would have upgraded years ago.

Leaky pack
The vest had a lot of storage and fits comfortably, and I haven’t had any chaffing. However, the mouthpiece developed a hole after only two uses and now sprays water constantly whenever there’s water in the hydration pack. I asked Nathan for a replacement mouthpiece but never heard back. This is unacceptable given how expensive the vest/hydration pack was.

Amazing Features!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the storage space in this and how light it is! Additionally, the insulated feature of the bladder is a game-changer for running in the heat!! I would recommend this to anyone to add to their gear list.

Beautiful color!!
Got the vest knowing it was a compression vest. I ordered a small but probably could have used a medium. Works great thus far minus being tight. I love the color and functionality. Training for my first marathon this fall & need the summer hydration for long runs before the event.

Very Nice Pack - Only Issue is Chafe w/Sports Bra
As expected it chafes my back when I run in a sports bra (all packs do including my previous Nathan). However, it fits comfortably and is nice and stretchy. It doesn’t feel tight and restricting when I have a full bladder in, like my previous pack. I also wear it for mountain biking and it is amazing!! No chafe, even with a sports bra, and super comfortable (nothing digs/pinches). It seems to hold heat a little more than the VaporHowe did, but once it’s soaked in sweat it doesn’t chafe anymore. More storage than the VaporHowe too.

Wonderful Pack
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my new Pinnacle hydration pack! It feels like you are wearing a piece fo clothing. It is soft and fits to your body. No bouncing around, even as the water level goes down. Lots of great pockets to put all the snacks! :)

Holds everything and comfortable
I love this hydration vest. I can carry the bladder in the back and/or two flasks in the front. It can also hold all of my needs for my long runs. The pack does not move around and fits snug and comfortable.

It's just right! You won't know it's there.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vest is "THE ONE." This true-to-size women's vest fits just right. It's so good that you will not know it's there. There are so many thoughtful features. The pockets are just the right size, and in just the right place. I literally use every one, and keep the bladder in back to get me through half marathons and up. I would also say that this color really grew on me. It looks better in person.
