Great for long runs

Holds everything I need and doesn’t hit the sides of my arms when I run which is great. Easy to wash and love how adjustable it is.

Great for Long Runs

Originally posted on salomon.com

I purchased this to help with training for my first marathon. I intended to use it for long runs, but in this summer weather I’ve used it for all distances to stay hydrated. It’s lightweight and convenient for holding keys, ID, headphone case etc. The only negative is the “Salomon” lettering started peeling off after a couple of months. Now it just says “Mon” so I peeled the rest of the letters off :). Otherwise I love it.

Great for Trail Adventures!

I’ve been using the Salomon Active Skin 8 for both trail runs and hikes. It’s lightweight, comfortable, and doesn’t bounce around while moving. There’s also way more storage than I expected, which is great for carrying water, snacks, my phone, and other essentials. It’s become my go-to vest for longer adventures.

Perfect for mid-length runs/hikes

Originally posted on salomon.com

Great for trail runs and for longer road runs. I love that the back pocket cinches down so that it doesn't flop around if it's not completely full. The only thing I would change is adding a zippered pocket to the right side chest - only having a zip pocket on the left limits easy access storage of important items like phone, keys, etc if my running clothes don't have secure pockets.

Everything I wanted

Originally posted on salomon.com

I brought this product a few weeks ago in preparation for a 36-mile day in the ADK High Peaks (was a success!). 8L was perfect for everything needed including gear, extra clothes, nutrition, and hydration. This is a perfect pack for everyone from the weekend warrior to the seasoned ultrarunner. The price point is extremely approachable and includes all the essential elements of a high-quality vest. Excited to use this on future adventures!

Good pack overall

Comfortable material, good fit, lot of storage in the back, no bounce even with flasks full. Pockets are tight in the front making it tricky to place flasks and essentials.

Nice day pack.

Originally posted on salomon.com

I just received the Solomon 8 L vest two days ago.I have only used the day pack once, but for a 5 mile walk it was very comfortable. The water bottles seem quite flimsy. Unfortunately, the first one I cut into trying to remove the plastic tab that they place over the cap, and it is now unusable. It leaks 😞 The rubber/silicone is VERY soft so be very careful when removing the plastic cover so as to not cut into it. I am now trying to see if I can find a replacement.

This pack fits me like a glove. I love being able to go out without a lot of gear. This holds just enough for me to stay hydrated and carry a jacket if the weather turns.

Very comfortable and light weight, carries everything I need for a run or a long bike ride! Been using it 6-7 days out of the week for a few months now and it’s still good as new ever after multiple washes!

For the comfort and durability alone this vest is worth it! I wear it for every run, hike and bike ride and it doesn’t rub against my skin and is very light. The bag in the back is also great for my keys, phone, wallet and additional items for longer bike rides!

Love the Active Skin 8 for my trail hustles. I use a Platypus 1.5L bladder in the posterior cavity and have plenty of storage for nutrition, phone, and bear spray in the accessory pockets. Whistle included in front left pocket. Large zipper compartment in back holds my jacket and the front zipper securely holds my phone. I amble to attach my pole quiver and bungee it to keep from bouncing & rattling. Love this vest!
