Why We Like The Salomon ADV Skin 5L Hydration Vest Set
Salomon's best-selling hydration vest, the ADV Skin 5L Hydration Vest Set features a stretchy and breathable fabric that snugs up to our torso to feel like a second skin when we're running. We like the bounce-free fit and the easy access to our fluids in the front flask pockets, and we can also stash some poles for gnarly mountain runs with the elastic bungees.

I love this vest!
I loved it so much that I bought a second one. It is perfect for my marathon training and I am a huge fan.

Great for outdoor activities
My first running vest! Great for trail running over longer distances. I had only used a running belt before, but this vest is a game-changer. You can access all your things immediately without any effort.

First Vest and I like it
I did a bunch of research before deciding on the ADV skin 5 and so far I'm very happy with it. I was unsure if I needed a M or a L, even after my initial purchase. However after loading it and cinching it down I'm very happy with the M. There is minimal bounce and really only noticeable when both flasks are full. The vest is a little warm, especially on the back. I would have preferred that they didn't use the crinkly material on the back, but it isn't a deal breaker.

BEST IN CLASS
The Salomon ADV Skin 5 Hydration Vest is best in class. I got it before I became a more serious runner, and it’s been a fantastic investment. If you’re a newer runner, skip the endless noise of recommendations and just go for this vest if it’s within reach. I always feel secure wearing it, and it comfortably holds my phone, snacks, and epi. I use it for everything—running (even if it’s just a few miles to get boba), hiking, and even on the slopes. (In running attire, I'm a true XS, but with thick winter layers a S would work well.) While there are more affordable alternatives, if you can save up for this one, it’s worth it. Comfort matters, and I’ve never had chafing issues with this vest. My only small gripes are with the side pockets. The front panel pockets are sewn down, leaving about a one-inch gap between the side seam and the front panel. It’s hard to explain, but my fingers often get tangled when I’m reaching around there. I understand why it’s designed this way—to keep the pockets from sagging—but it can be a bit tricky. On the plus side, I love that the back panel stash pocket entry wraps slightly to the front, making it more accessible. After having pins put in my elbow following a bad break, I can’t fully bend my arm, so this design choice makes a real difference for me. Another minor issue was the little trash bag in the front right pocket. Because of my limited range of motion, I kept getting tangled up with it, so I just removed it. Tossing trash into the main pocket works fine for me. Overall, this vest is a winner—comfortable, reliable, and thoughtfully designed.

Great purchase.
I was initially skeptical about running vests and their comfort, especially coming from using a single bottle for hydration. However, this vest has completely changed my perspective. It fits like a glove and conveniently carries my phone, nutrition, and hydration all in one place. The only downside is that the flask tends to slosh around a bit when you drink most of the water, which can be a bit annoying. Overall, though, it’s been an awesome addition to my gear!

Comfortable lots of pockets
I’ve worn this twice on 2 long runs. Super comfortable with the adjustable plastic string. Good water storage. And pockets.

Good functionality but sizing was a bit off
Overall light and useful pocket space, despite usually wearing a medium this felt a bit tight around my chest. Hopefully a large will fit better!

Great
Bought as a gift for my sister so purchased 2 sizes. She's a UK10 and 5ft3. The XS was the better fit, no movement when running. She was extremely pleased with it.

Great hydration vest
I bought this about a month ago and I'm made up with it! The only thing I would say is that the phone pocket could be a bit bigger: I have a Samsung S23 FE and have to remove it from the protective case to fit it in the pocket which is a bit of a nuisance. But, otherwise, it is great! The soft flasks are brilliant! I would highly recommend.
