I was skeptical but made a nice purchase.

I had seen other runners wear these things you call the lumbar pack but I never thought you could run comfortably with one due to giggling and bouncing and what have you. But I'm a big boy runner now so I need to carry my own supplies. I just busted this beaut out of the box yesterday and hit the road with it today. I did a 14er and no bounce and since I was carrying my own fuel--no bonk. The pack did kinda want to rotate a bit but a gentle elbow and it'll slide back into position. Each hip pocket will hold some Clif bars, gels, sammy bags pack with nuts, etc. I haven't figured out what all the bungee cords do but I have a week off so I'll figure them out later. Bottles give good suckage and oddly enough, they feel nice in the hands. I haven't mastered the reinsertion aspect of the lumbar pack yet so I have to use to hands and some swear words.

Buy this, you'll be happy and look cool when inexperienced runners see you.
