    The Raide 2L belt is a must have for me. I have yet to find a vest that doesn’t bounce all over the place when I pick up the pace. With this belt, I can carry water, plenty of fuel, and my phone all while getting under 6 minute miles with no issues.

    a little bit heavier and more stiff than the naked belt - but tightens to your waist like a belt! great for if im planning on using poles and need to use the bungees.

    Lauren Tkint de Roodenbeke

    My favorite piece of gear. Can carry up to two 500ml flasks in the back + poles and/or jacket in the belt loops. I carry my phone + easy access gels in the front. Adjustable, doesn't move around at all.

    I can’t say enough about this belt. I’ve done several ultras in it, and it’s never let me down. I’m able to store multiple gels and flasks in it, and there’s ZERO BOUNCE. I don’t understand it but I love it.
