Weight, comfort, and usability. All Nathan vests are above the rest because of these three reasons. It is very easy to adjust, it doesn't bounce around, it is very light at 5.5 ounces (most Camelbaks similar in size are heavier). I've never had a problem with chaffing with this either. Plus the pockets in the front are great for holding gels and other race nutrition. When I am not racing I put my cell phone and ID in there.The back pouch is also great for carrying surplus gear. While it's not a big pouch, I've gone on 10 hour day hikes with this and been fine.
