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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTECH SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacity: 6L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded bottles: 2 × HydraPak Body Bottle™ 500ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReservoir compatible: up to 1.5L (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosure: Side-zip entry with elastic band across the lower ribs and side bungee adjustments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront pockets: 9 total — 3 large stretch stash pockets, 3 zippered pockets, 2 soft-flask pockets, 1 small envelope pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear storage: 2 larger back pockets including a lower pass-through pocket — 11 exterior pockets total\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrekking pole carry: Customisable stash loops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFabric: 100% polyester primary body, 82% nylon \/ 18% elastane secondary panels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes: SM, MD, LG (SA listing)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut: Xodus Vesta (women's narrower shoulders and back; see Xodus Vest for the unisex\/men's roomier cut)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReflective logos for low-light visibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UltimateDirection","offers":[{"title":"Small \/ Onyx","offer_id":44386816131251,"sku":"80480624ONX-SM","price":3999.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium \/ Onyx","offer_id":44386816164019,"sku":"80480624ONX-MD","price":3999.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large \/ Onyx","offer_id":44386816524467,"sku":"80480624ONX-LG","price":3999.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/2402\/6291\/files\/1_02b644d1-fedd-4ff5-8e1a-813ed45c5e48.png?v=1744714845"},{"product_id":"adventure-vesta-6-0","title":"Adventure Vesta 6.0","description":"\u003cp\u003eTake on the biggest objectives with the Ultimate Direction Adventure Vesta 6.0 — a women's-specific 17L vest with deployable rain fly, 13 pockets and a wraparound fit for full-day mountain missions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDESCRIPTION\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Adventure Vesta 6.0 is UD's most voluminous women's vest, built for the days when the plan is bigger than a race vest can handle — a self-supported traverse, a winter mountain link-up, or a wet day where you actually need every layer you brought. A weather-resistant clamshell main compartment holds layers, food and a 2L reservoir; a deployable rain fly drops over the lot when the cloud comes in. Up front, two PLB pockets sit on the shoulder straps for a GPS locator or InReach within easy reach, a Body Bottle™ 500 rides in a holster, and the Comfort Cinch™ system with High Molecular Weight Polyethylene cord and air-mesh anti-chafe panel dials in lateral fit from the small of your back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're tackling a Drakensberg traverse, building toward Skyrun or Ultra-trail Cape Town's longer formats, or you want one women's vest that can do multi-day FKT attempts and double as a winter long-run pack, this is it.
