Why We Like The Salomon Pulse Belt
The Salomon Pulse Belt carries our gels, hydration flasks, and other essentials with unmatched comfort and stability. The snug fit stays put no matter how fast we’re running, and the nylon/elastane blended construction is lightweight and breathable to keep us from sweating more than necessary in the lower back. Two horizontal stretch pockets designed to hold 500ml flasks, as well as other small secret pockets for the rest of our gear, are included.

Pulse
Comfortable and I can store my phone and keys safely

Great fit and feel but poor durability
This is a great belt and I’ve used it for short runs and longer multi day races including running in the Alps. But this is the 3rd belt I’ve had where the zip gets stuck and eventually chews a hole in the material to the side of the zip. Could the material be reinforced?

Perfect fit and function!
I’ve been using my pulse belt for a few weeks now, almost daily. It’s been a long time since I’ve used any kind of running belt because I typically get annoyed with the bouncing or the rash, but honestly after the first couple of runs when you get it situated the way you like it, you won’t even know it’s there! I put my wallet in the zipper compartment and soft flask with my phone(covered with a plastic bag) in the pocket area and no longer worried about my car being broken into and stuff being stolen while I get some miles in after work. I found it best to have the soft flask in the front and zipper compartment in the back. Unless you attach poles to the loops, which I haven’t done yet.

Great fit!
I wasn’t sure I needed a hydration vest just yet, and this belt works perfectly! It fits snuggly with zero movement on my runs and fits my car keys, a credit card, gels, and a soft flask in the back pocket.

Minimalist perfection
Fantastic running belt to complement my larger running backpack for times when I don't go as far. It fits a 500ml flexible water pouch and my phone/keys in a separate zip pocket. Highly recommend. I'm 5'9" and 150 lbs, the medium is perfect.

Excellence during the Leadville Trail Marathon '24
Wearing both the Salomon Advanced Skin 12 for hydration and the Salomon Pulse belt for other items (including trekking poles, gels, and my phone), I couldn't be more happy with my Salomon running gear and put it to the test during the Leadville Trail Marathon on June 29th, 2024! If you're on the bubble of sizes, select the smaller size to account for the additional weight that you might carry - also prevents any slipping down around your waist! All in all, excellent products!!

Space for everything needed for long or short run!
Space for water bottle, phone, gels or even straps to hang your shirt.

Exactly what I needed
This has been great so far. Switching from an armband to this is great for comfort and storage. Not an avid runner but trying to get back into it and anything that makes that process easier and more enjoyable is definitely a win.

Great piece of kit
Great , I had a 500ml soft flask in it and it was comfortable to run in , I would use this when I don't quite need a hydration vest , but need some extra pockets for gels / snacks , or a small amounts of fluids, will definitely be using it for gel storage for my next marathon !
