If you’re a serious long-distance runner who’s looking for a pack that’s going to allow train light and unencumbered – then look no further than the Advanced Skin 5 Set from Salomon.
This pack is expertly constructed with high-quality fast wicking and lightweight fabric for maximum comfort and features a Sensifit system that conforms to your body to prevent movement when you’re mid-run. The two included soft bite valve flasks sit in the pockets located at the front of your chest, which reduces sloshing and enables you to move your neck down to drink without removing them. You can also hang a separate 1.5L bladder in this pack as it has an insulated sleeve - so you can keep both a water and energy supply handy at all times.
This pack is highly accessible and features a back kangaroo pocket, a main zipped compartment, and plenty of smaller ones to keep all your essentials within reach. The form wrapping design, breathable and comfortable fabrics, and superb construction of the S-Lab Advanced Skin 5 Set will take your training to an entirely new level.
Hi just wondering if this vest would be suitable for an ultra distance event?
G'day Trav,
Yes, the Salomon Advanced Ski 5 Running Set it suitable for an ultra distance event. You probably need to carefully check what you're required to carry in the event as we have lots of people go for the Advanced Skin 12 Set as they have a little more room for water, snacks, gels and other required gear.
Where do i measure myself for a size for the Advanced Skin 5 Running Set
G'day Michael,
I wasn't entirely sure of this one, to be honest, so I gave Salomon Australia a call for some guidance. You need to measure around the largest part of your chest, under your armpits, and around your back. The size recommendations on the chart they sent me are below:
XXS - Min 69cm, Max 86cm
XS/S - Min 86cm, Max 98cm
M/L - Min 98cm, Max 109cm
XL - Min 109cm, Max 125cm.
I hope this clears it up for you.
