Ultimate Direction Race Vest 5.0 - Cold Weather Testing

When it comes to running vests or hydration packs, I generally want less. I want fewer pockets. I want less weight. I need less material. The Race Vest 5.0 by Ultimate Direction has a mesh so breathable it’s basically see-through. But it’s pockets are made of ripstop nylon. There isn’t a lot of storage, just enough for a small reservoir and half a day’s worth of gels. This pack may be just what I’m looking for.

disclosures: Ultimate Direction sent me the Race Vest 5.0 and the Ventro jacket featured in the running footage. I purchased the 1.5L reservoir to round out my testing. Regardless of how a product gets to me, no one is paying me to make this video or to use these products. No one will get a chance to preview any of my footage or my thoughts before this video goes up on YouTube.
