Race long mid-distance ultras in a vest that fits like a tank top with the Ultimate Direction Xodus Vesta — a 6L women's-cut closed-front design with side-zip entry and 11 pockets for serious storage without the bounce.
DESCRIPTION
The Xodus Vesta is the women's-cut version of UD's clean-sheet long-distance race vest — narrower through the shoulders and back, with all the same Xodus innovations. Instead of an open front with sternum straps, the Vesta pulls over your head and closes with a side zipper, giving you a tank-top fit that wraps the torso completely. Stretchy fabric and an elastic band across the lower ribs keep it locked to your body even when fully loaded, so a full kit list rides without rubbing or bounce. Two HydraPak Body Bottle™ 500ml flasks sit deep in front pockets, and the pocket count is impressive: nine front pockets including three large stash pockets, three zippered pockets, two flask pockets and a small envelope pocket, plus two larger rear pockets with a lower pass-through.
If you're racing a 50k to 100k where you want uninterrupted front storage instead of sternum-strap fiddle, training shirtless in summer (the closed front is one of the only vests that won't sand your skin), or you want a women's-cut vest that genuinely doesn't bounce when stuffed, the Xodus Vesta is for you. The side-zip takes a run or two to dial in, but the fit is unlike anything else in the UD range. For an open-front classic vest, look at the Ultra Vesta 6.0 or Mountain Vesta 6.0.
