Race a fast 50k or chase a parkrun PB with the Ultimate Direction Race Vest 6.0 — featherlight, zero-bounce carrying for runners who count every gram.
DESCRIPTION
The Race Vest 6.0 is built for one thing: moving fast. Stretch side panels wrap the torso, dynamic bungee sternum straps let your chest expand on the climbs without the pack pogo-ing on your shoulders, and the upgraded Comfort Cinch™ 3.0 dials in fit across the small of your back so the whole vest disappears once you start running. Two HydraPak Body Bottle™ 500ml flasks ride up front for easy sipping, the rear compartment swallows a 2L reservoir when you need it, and recycled monomesh keeps the next-to-skin feel cool over long, sweaty efforts.
If you're racing anything from a 10k trail to a fast 50k, working towards your first Ultra-trail Cape Town finish, or you're the kind of runner who'd rather carry less than have a pocket for everything, this is your vest. It carries the essentials — flasks, gels, phone, shell — and nothing you don't need. For longer adventures with more kit, look at the Ultra Vest 6.0 (10.3L) or Mountain Vest 6.0 (13.5L).
