SPARTAN by CRAFT Hydrate Belt
Craft
- Durable ripstop fabric with lightweight mesh material
- Holds one water bottle for easy hydration on the go
- Includes one zippered pocket for storage
- YKK zippers and adjustable buckles
- Color: Black
Needs tri-glide sliders on each strap to keep straps from loosening. I tried the pack w/ a 16 oz. H2O bottle and I had to keep tightening belt every 1/4 mile or so. I do like it more than a hydration pack, however. Ordered a $2 pack of sliders to improve design.
The Hydra belt has a small pocket to fit gels and a zipper pocket to slide keys into but not a phone if you need it. The bottle pocket doesn't close tightly and my bottle fell out the first time I used it. I learned how to position it on my waist and it hasn't happened again. Only problem is it doesn't stay tight. I have to pull the straps every mile or so to re-tighten it. Maybe it's the way I have the straps looped in the clips. Overall it is comfortable when adjusted properly.
I buy Craft for long term wear and good quality.
Well constructed, good design, very practical.
No disappointments!
