I was itching to buy a new hydration vest for months, knowing that my old one wasn't cutting it anymore. I finally jumped on a sale opportunity on Salomon's website and got this vest for under $95, which is fabulous as it retails for $150. I could not be more pleased! I love the way it fits on my body. I feel like I'm not wearing the vest at all! I haven't had any issues with the material rubbing my skin or getting too sweaty (it seems quite moisture-wicking). I'm a huge fan of the storage capacity, as well. I can safely carry all the water I need, as well as gels and arm sleeves.
I'm not entirely sure what makes this a "women's" vest, to be honest. But that was important to know for sizing purposes. In the unisex vests, I'm typically an XS or even XXS. I initially tried on an XXS size but it felt way too tight around my arms, so I ended up getting an XS. I'm glad I did because I like having the range of motion and looser fit. That being said, the vest does secure very tightly and I don't feel like it's flopping around, which is a must.
