FuelBelt Sahara 22-Ounce Palm Holder with Pocket

I bought this in April 2010 to better hydrate during training runs and reduce my pit stop times at water stations during races (I have issues running and drinking from a cup).

My initial impression was this product performed adequately. The 22oz bottle provided enough hydration for up to half-marathon distances. The neoprene collar and rubberized lower band held the bottle securely in place and allowed for easy swapping of other bottles of similar dimensions. The zippered pouch was large enough to hold a gel pack, key or identification without fear of losing them.

The outer pouch, while large enough to hold items, did not secure them and I stopped using it after the first time I lost something. The hand grip uses a nylon strap and buckle that, while difficult to adjust, allowed for a wide degree of adjustability except for the smallest hands.

The biggest downer is the lid, despite having a gasket, constantly leaks. I have other bottles that don''t have a gasket and they don''t leak.

I prefer my GoLite HydroClutch Handheld Water Bottle Color: Sun / Smoke to the FuelBelt Sahara because it has a better hand grip and the bottle doesn''t leak.

I''m 100% satisfied with this water bottle. It stays put on my hand, does not leak and has three pockets for valuables or other necessities. There''s a zippered pocket, an outside open mesh pocket (I don''t recommend putting anything important here because it will fly out) and a very small velcro pocket on the hand strap (perfect for a key). I would recommend this to anyone, but especially to runners.

Great concept I like it but it leaks all over the place when I run! Not happy I am training for an ironman and I am doing long runs with wet hands.

Amazon will not allow me to order or place it on my wish list this product even after I''ve made the appropriate choices to the left, as requested. This has been an ongoing problem with Amazon, that they refuse to correct. I wanted one of these for someone at Christmas, but it appears it is time for plan B, no thanks to Amazon.
