Great sized water bottle! It leaks a little bit, especially if I use it with a carbonated drink or supplement, but the shape is very comfortable to carry, and the adjustable strap keeps it close to my hand. This is perfect for runs of up to about 6 miles. The speed draw is great! Despite a little leaking, the positives are clear.

NOT made for running which I kinda had hoped I could figure out. I just lightly jog with it, but it for sure is not ideal for running. it be nicer if it had two separate straps but for the price and the way it is built I am 100% happy. I recommended it already to my friends

and sometimes when you're going out for just an hour so you need something like this, a small hand bottle. It's taken me a little while to get around ...

I am just under 5' tall and was worried this would be too large. All the adjustability makes it fit just fine, and the added shoulder padding is great. I bought this to help with osteopenia and hope the walls and jousekeeeping while wearing it strengthens my bones. I also like that the weight can be tapered down for days I am not up for the full 20lbs

I've used it almost every run since I got it to avoid dehydration in the heat. For holding, I switch back and forth with putting my hand under the skinny adjustable strap (where your hand is intended to go) and put it straight onto the water bottle under the cushioned part. I actually like wearing the second way a little better. One note - I would fill up the water bottle first before putting stuff in the pouch as it can be hard to see that it is full/filling up because of the curve at the top of the bottle and the dark color
