Part of Ultimate Direction’s Signature Series, the Adventure Vest 5.0 combines a superlight design with a 17-litre capacity to make a top choice for endurance athletes needing to carry more than just the essentials.
Featuring UD’s updated Comfort Cinch 2.0 system, the lighter, thinner componentry and improved adjustment points enhance comfort, fit, and accessibility for easier amendments when you’re on-the-move. Once the vest is on, it feels secure and stable against the body; essential for longer distances and uneven terrain.
Multiple pockets on the harness accommodate gels, bottles, snacks and electronics, while the large main compartment is hydration bladder compatible. For all-season performance, an integrated rain fly can be attached around the pack for protection when the clouds roll in.
Finishing touches come in the form of two new Ultimate Direction Body Bottle II 500ml soft flasks. Lined with their proprietary Peeva laminate, it ensures you taste the water and not the plastic, for a better drinking experience whether it’s the first hour or the twelfth.
