Pretty decent design. Pretty decent fit and finish. If not for one fatal flaw, I would probably have given this product a four or five star review... HOWEVER, the cheap-ass water bottle they supplied leaks continuously and profusely from the tip... which is a pretty major issue in a product whose design REQUIRES the water bottle to be HORIZONTAL. So, if you don''t care about 1/2 your water dripping out onto your leg and socks--and don''t mind being thirsty because half of your water leaked out before the end of your hike--then this might not be a bad buy for you. The utter and complete cheapness of almost everything produced and sold today is a bit discouraging. I mean, how much more could it have cost to use a water bottle that did not LEAK? .05? .10? And the design of the pouch for the water bottle requires an unusually skinny water bottle... so, for example, you could not use a typical bicycle water bottle in this pouch... so, you''re stuck with the leaky water bottle they supply. A double insult.
