Ultimate Direction 12L Ultra Vest

Elevate your Ultra running experience with the redesigned Ultra Vest. Boasting a lightweight design, water-resistant pockets, and ergonomic details, this vest was crafted for long miles.

Take on the trail in this vest, it's ultra lightweight and made using stretch mesh side panels so it won't weigh you down and features a new universal and dynamic fit that wraps completely around the torso for more security. The soft recycled monomesh liner is lightweight, breathable, and strong for next-to-skin comfort, and air mesh panels offer extra comfort, airflow and chafe protection as the miles tick by. It is storage-centred with plenty of options being offered up, including 2 large zippered ripstop chest pockets (water-resistant and large enough for most phones), 2 lower front stretch mesh pockets, a stretch back passthrough pocket with plenty of space for extra layers and a large water-resistant rear compartment. Further storage is offered by four removable bungee loops with hooks to attach trekking poles - the loops can be attached at the front or back of the vest for customisable trekking pole carry options. To keep you hydrated over the miles, the vest features two 500ml Hydrapak Body Bottles, with bungee loop bottle holders to keep bottles up and in place as you drink, and a reservoir sleeve and hanging strap in the main compartment and reservoir hose options to accommodate a hydration system (hydration system not included). The front buckle static sternum straps give bounce-free stability for larger loads, and the hook attachment lets you customise the placement and fit. Reflective logos ensure visibility in low light, and a whistle has been included to attract attention in emergency situations. Finally, all the zipper pulls are glove-friendly for ease of use.
