I saw those running vest, in front put water bottle, behind all the cards, money etc..
Is it good?

I am using, it's good because you have plenty of storage to put a lot of stuffs but the con is it may weigh you down when running unless you're not aiming for PB.

Also putting more weight can helped you train better. And I like it as it's very secure when running.

Anyway, I am also ordering the waist one recommended by bro xllms which I had been eyeing for sometime reason being it's more compact but then I don't know how secure is it and how to put a water bottle 🤔

But then, for water bottle, I had a good solution. Can buy those collapsible type like below :

So far, the link I provided is the cheapest.
I got mine@$22 from shopee.

If can best to get those with a outlet drinking tube so you can easily drink water when thirsty. Mine doesn't have this feature.

The only con of why I wanted to get a waist type one is it's compact so maybe easier to run on race day but the hiking vest is good for training.

I don't need those drinking tub, very troublesome to wash hehehe.. those soft plastic bag (cones with the vest?), is more than enough.

No, the vest doesn't come with the soft plastic bottle.

Actually I had been running with it for few times n I think with the drinking tube outlet, it's more convenient for you to drink while you're still running unlike you have to stop, remove and unzip your vest behind to take out your drinking bottle.

You can checked it out at decathlon but getting online will definitely be much cheaper.

It's definitely secure though the weight if you put a water bottle will be heavier when you run but it's good for training so during race day, you can run lighter and better.

Also need to use brush to wash inside the bottle cos it will be very slimy inside.

This one is good to have as you can easily refilled water in Singapore and empty just fold it up and easily can put in small pounch.
