Why We Like The Salomon Active Skin 8L Set
Bringing enough water on a run or high-speed hike is always tricky. We skip sacrificing movement with a clunky backpack and instead bring our water along in the Salomon Active Skin 8L Set. This pack is designed for movement with a 3D-mesh harness, dual chest pockets that hold the included soft flasks, and a large back pocket that stashes extra layers.

Exceeds expectations
I bought this vest for my marathon training/race and it has made a profound difference in my long runs. It is hardly noticeable, doesn't chafe, easy to hand wash, and has plenty of storage. Being able to bring all the water and nutrition I need without having to return to my car is a game changer. Plus, it's versatile for hiking and ultras if I ever decide to try one. It's worth the money!

Worth the Investment
I have already used my Salomon running vest multiple times. I purchased the product for my first 50k race. It has plenty of storage and extremely comfortable, which was my biggest concern. I’ve used in other applications like Mounting Biking too. Great Product and I would definitely buy again.

Packed it with 6 avocados, ran 4 miles, NO BOUNCE
the title could be the whole review. This thing is great. I bought the size based on info on the site, it fits perfect with easy adjustments, my phone is HUGE and fits snug in the front with no bounce, even with both water containers full. But most importantly, I was out on a run during a wind storm, found avocados on the ground, put them in the back, and there was no bouncing while I finished my run, nor any discomfort. I was shocked and pleasantly surprised. Surpassed my expectations.

Loved it initially - flasks dont stay up
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Size Bought:
- Large
I bought this ~30 days ago and have used it on maybe 10 total runs thus far. At first I really liked it! Felt secure, good storage, accessible items. But lately the elastic loops that go around the top of the water flasks have stretched out to the point they dont hold the flasks up anymore which makes it really annoying & difficult having to fish out a rubbery soft flask out of the holder mid-run. I havent tried anything else yet so not sure if this is unique to Salomon but definitely annoying.

Great choice!
The vest is a great choice! It holds a ton and comes with two water bottles which have been really useful on my long runs. Great product for anyone looking for a hydration vest!

Nice product, some tweaks needed
I would give it a 3.5 of 5 starts. Love the ‘no slosh’ bladders and overall snug fit and various pockets / compartments to carry things. Bladders hold enough fluid for about a 10m run. Vest is overall a great design and I would recommend it to others. Some improvements: sizing chart is off. I have a 40” chest. Per the dimension guidance (foto #2) I ordered a Medium. However, the actual vest is very tight causing the bladders to be way off to the side (foto #1) making them hard to reach when running - I need to take both hands and pull the bladder towards my mouth to drink. Secondly, it’s pretty hard to get the elastic string inside the clasp. The clasp mouth should either be slightly wider, or have more of an angled bevel to help guide the string to its mouth. It takes about 3-4 tries to get the string inside the claps. Again, I do like the vest, but think these corrections would help.
