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.

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.

Great Vest! Nice features
Bought this vest for running marathons and 50milers - Running my first marathon with it this weekend but I have had several 20+ runs in training with it and fits great! Nice and snug no bouncing around. The pockets are nice too! Plenty of space in the back as well.

Quite literally, a second skin!
I was looking for a vest that's light, breathable and above all for my hydration needs. I've been in conditions wherein I've had no source of water to refill, so the 500ml flasks and an additional space to put in a bladder makes it huge! I've just done a couple of runs so far and I'm loving the fit so far. Plus, the red color looks great!

PERFECT RUNNING VEST
I've been skeptical of running vests forever, feeling suffocated by them. But not this vest!! It's so comfortable I hardly even feel it. It fits so much water and the back area is the perfect size for snacks, keys, a light jacket or another bladder. It has perfect pockets on the side for your phone or other items you'll need to access easily.
