"Overall I think this belt is excellent and well worth the price esp. for someone who will be running far distances and not have a local water station. I would buy again if needed. "cxk9758

(4)

Ease of use

Just find the right size, fill up the water bottles and go.

(5)

Quality of Construction

The water bottles are easy to open and close while on the run. The belt comes with reflectors. There is both a pocket in the front and back in order to hold gels, cell phones or keys.

(5)

Fit

Was comfortable and did not ride up while running.

(5)

Comfort

Was comfortable and did not ride up while running.

(4)

Adjustability

The velco on the front allows you to semi-adjust your size but each size has a certain waist size which I found to be accurate.

(5)

Durability

So far I use mine at least 4 times a week for almost a year and no tears rips and in excellent condition.

(5)

Value

This price is compariable to the fuelbelt and other items in the same category. The only difference is the size of the water bottle and what direction the bottle is facing on the belt.

(5)

Appearance

Has reflectors on the belt for night time running.

(5)

Performance

I have been pleased with this item from the first time trying it out.

Strengths

The bottle size is 10oz versus fuelbelt is 8oz so can hold more water or anything you want to put in the bottle. I find that it is easy to remove and place back into the belt the water bottles while running. The pockets are large enough to hold my cell phone, keys, and gel packets and ipod. I also find that this type of belt rides up a lot less than a belt with one large water bottle on it.

Weakness

Once you buy a belt with a certain number of bottles on it, you can not add more bottles to it. But that is the same problem that other fuel belts also have. But then 40oz might be enough for some ultra marathons anyways.
