Ready to take on the trail without that annoying sloshing common with hydration-bladder packs, the Ultimate Direction Women’s Adventura Vesta Hydration Vest includes two Body Bottle 500s and touts a bottle holster on each shoulder strap to make it easy to grab a drink and refill. The tough 70D nylon ripstop fabric fights off wear-and-tear through long days of use, and the Airwall Mesh back panel helps you stay cool with enhanced breathability. Gear loops at the back safely store your ice axes or trekking poles when you no longer need them, and the zippered storage compartment securely stashes extra layers, lunch, and any other essentials you may want close at hand.
