SharkMouth Hydration Backpack, Hiking Hydrated Pack with 2.5L Water Bladder, Multi Pocket Organizer, Lasts Long Day Mountaineering Trips, Travel and Journey

Very pleased with this pack!havent used it yet, but material looks good, has plenty of pockets plus a small zipper pocket perfect for your phone as well as great side pockets to hold easy access beverages.

Bag is not too big and has sufficient room for storage even with a filled bladder. A couple of flaws but not a deal breaker IMO. The straps for the bladder are a little too long. The straps on the bag are left to flop around. Should have a band or velco for extra material. And the drinking spout limits the water flow a little too much for my liking. But that could be a good thing as it stops u from over drinking.

I absolutely love this hydration pack! It’s a really nice size and lightweight. I got to test it out today, was hiking and climbing over big rocks and there was no water leakage at all. Holds plenty of water for those long hikes. Love that I can carry snacks and protein drink as well. Has a little pouch for keys, phone, etc. plenty of storage for what I need. Sturdy little pack. Love it, would def recommend!

First the good: i loved the size of the backpack. It has a storage area for the water reservoir which is insulated, along with three other zippered area for storing stuff. There are also elastic areas on the side with straps higher up, which is where i stored my walking sticks when not using them. Very light, feels like it will last. What i didnt like: the insulated area created condensation when i placed a chilled water reservoir in that space. It got my back wet as it leaked through. Also, the water bladder itself and drinking tube. The tube has to be screwed in; it doesnt snap. It is slightly difficult to attach. Also, the tube has to be attached to the bladder or else it will leak. The tube also has insulation around it, but it doesnt really keep the water cool.

This is my absolute favorite Amazon purchase ever. It’s big enough to pack a change of clothes, snacks, miscellaneous emergency and first aid items, plus a full bladder of water, minimum. It has a million pockets and slots for organizing, plus a felt lined smaller pocket on top that was perfect for my cell phone. Many reviews stated that it’s not large enough, but unless you’re trying to pack for an overnight hiking trip, this is more than enough. But it’s also small enough to use for cycling/snowboarding/day use. I went on a 15 mile hike shortly after getting this bag, and of the few issues I had that day (frozen toes, mostly), the backpack was never any of them. I could hardly tell I was wearing it. The chest and waist straps are long enough for a husky man, so they are perfect over my winter gear.

Pack came in fast was the size color and could do everything i needed it to do

I saw others complained of a plastic taste to the water from the pouch so i was worried. I soaked the inside of my pouch with a dishwashing detergent pod and hot water for 10 minutes. Then I rinsed it out thoroughly until squeaky clean. Be sure to get it fully out of hose by pulling on the mouthpiece continually so the water flows freely through the hose. My husband didn’t want tall the fuss on his and so just washed with soap and water. Well he said his tasted like a toy from Toys ‘R Us from his childhood. Lol like the inside of an inner tube for the pool. Terrible, especially for a hot day. We hiked 8 miles on a beach and we loved all the features of these bags. My only 2 complaints is that the mouthpiece is difficult to get a serious drink from, it’s ALOT of work to get thirst quenched quickly, so it’s better to really just continually sip while walking. The other complaint is that in sand, the cover for the mouthpiece allows sand to get in. It’s not sealed tight enough. So be sure to put tip of mouthpiece with cover on back into the zippered compartment before putting bag onto the sand. Other than that, the water stayed cold on an 86 degree day for over 6 hours with our drive and hike. Next time I’d put ice into the pouch however to make it ultimately refreshing. All the pockets were so convenient with double zippers. I was able to keep a cold canned zevia soda in the insulated pouch as well and it stayed cold for hours. Really thoroughly pleased. Well worth the money and very comfortable. I’m 5’2” and short waisted with a 32” inseam. But the bag fit me perfectly, didn’t hang awkwardly like other back packs. I was wearing a tank top and by the end of the hike the bag rubbed a little on right arm but nothing to leave a rash.this was the most comfortable back pack I’ve ever worn. It didn’t feel as tho I was carrying 3/4 of a gallon of water at all. I packed my lunch in bag as well and bug spray etc. all in all my by weighed 12lbs fully packed but it was effortless to carry. My husband felt the same way about his bag. Would highly recommend this bag!

We used this pack for not only water but wine too … and other items We bought 2 but want to return one

When I received the product even though I went through the measurements in my head I found it slightly smaller than I anticipated. Also it didnt seem to fit me comfortably if I strapped the chest buckle it felt like it was choking me, so I thought about returning it. It didnt come with any instructions which would have helped a ton,after inspecting it form there I realized that everything I was complaining about was very adjustable, it was just hard to see that it was. I was able to get it to fit comfortably and and actually has pretty decent space for a day hike, the water bladder is exceptionally good it took some time to figure out how everything feeds through a couple of tips, feed the tube through the arm strap first, before threading it into the pouch, I thought the velcro loops inside the bag compartment,where to hold of the tube but in fact they are to hold the bag so it doesnt sag when its filled with water, there are two slots on the top edge of the pouch for the velcro loops, which is a nice feature,the mouth piece of soft and doesnt seem to leak any water also when you suck you dont get a bunch of air mixed in. Really for the price is an amazing pack, hopefully it will last me many years.

I was initially worried about the size of this backpack. I was heading out on a hiking trip to Montana and knew I would be doing long daily hikes carrying rain gear, layers, food, and water. This pack managed to hold everything I needed. I particularly like the insulated pocket for the water bladder. I slid my lunch in there and it kept everything cool. I am happy with the purchase!
