Helpful Positive Review

Comfort and convenience.

by Eric G., Updated on November 9, 2018

Bought this vest after reading several reviews and "observing" them at several races. Had concerns at first by being bothered by the sloshing of the bottle or the seams under my arms.

Ultimate Direction Hydration vest

by Erin, from PA, United States Updated on June 10, 2018

I really loved my new best. Used it on a 50 k trail race yesterday. Very comfortable , no rubbing or bounce and lots of pockets! Only thing I would change is it didnt come with a bladder and the one I bought really did not fit well in it. Also think I will switch out the front bottles for soft ones.so that it is not bulky in front

THE BEST

by Jerico C., from Philippines Updated on July 6, 2017

I'm no expert in trail running but this vest from UD is just what I needed. Light and tight and molds to your skin. The pockets are what I can use and are soft but tough. Materials are topnotch. With the 30% off and another 10% upon checkout, it's a super duper great deal!!!

Questions & Answers for Ultimate Direction SJ Ultra Vest 2.0

Q I read that sizing is difficult for this vest. I fall right between M and L. Can I order both and return the one that does not fit, and what would be the cost of that.

You can order both sizes and return the one that does not fit. Just contact our customer service department when you know which one you would like to send back and they will get you a return shipping label at no cost to you.
