I bought this to add to my Wolf tactical weighted vest via the molle system on the back of the vest. The low profile design works wonderfully, and looks like it was made to fit the vest perfectly. You'd think it came that way, except for a slight difference in the camo color. Love it. Then the included bladder system is the best I've encountered. the ziplock type opening makes the bladder much easier to clean than the screw top lid styles, as you can get your hands down inside to wipe/wash clean if necessary. The tube and valve are also the best and easiest to use I've tried. You don't bite down on the mouth piece like most, you pull, and it locks in place, making sucking down a bunch of water easy, without feeling like your sucking a thick milk shake through a straw, the way some of those bite valves do. the quick attach/release system is also very good. ...and you can buy replacement parts for this brand, if a valve/hose wears out. Highly recommended.

The picture of the item described shows a separate way (screw top) to add water or ice, and the slide top is for cleaning. What was included did not add this screw top fill part. The pack and everything else is as described, but the water bag is not. At least for what I received, pictures attached. But, barring that, it is a bag with molle that will hold water. Only years will test if it holds up.

Purchased for an extreme hiking and camping expedition. Quality is excellent, good stitching, heavy fabric and lightly padded pouch. Decided to taste the water on the first rinse before filing for the trip, even on the first rinse there was no flavor from the water bladder. During the trip the bladder heated up due to the high temperatures, again no off taste to the water. Molle strips on the pouch made it easy to attach to a vest or the outside of my pack. Only concern with longevity is the connection between the hose and the water blader, the idea is sound but would be an area that would break.

Il costo è esagerato per quanto mi riguarda ma il prodotto è di ottima fattura. Con source si va sul sicuro. il prezzo non è giustificato per la sacca contenitore

The low profile design is key. By making this pack wider and longer you get 3 liters in a very thin package. The mounting straps are very strong and allow for a tight mount to avoid much movement even when jumping or running. The quick detach mouthpiece allows for easy conversion to a Sawyer system and the storm valve gives plenty of flow. Hydration is important. This might be the most important piece of kit you own.

Slim, square, and staying put! A hydration system is the best invention of the 21st century and this is the next gen upgrade you want. Addressing:bulk, attachment, easy filling, easy cleaning, better material, and manufacturing/ the finish is outstanding! You get what you pay for.

I had another Source pack that I was using and wanted to have something that would work with my Hill People Kit Bag V2. The molle straps work well with this and doesn't move around or bounce when installed on the pack properly.... took a couple of iterations to get it right. Keeps a low profile while wearing. Went on a long hike through the Arizona desert and it worked like a dream. Probably should mention this but I froze the bladder the night before and it actually kept the water cold through the 5 mile hike in 90+ degree weather...

Le haut du panier, et ça se paie. Solide comme un tank, monté sur un porte plaque, ça ne bouge pas. Les trois kilo de flotte sont vite oubliés.

Bought as my old camel pack was leaking and not very good, so decided to give this a try, I was a little reluctant at first as it was a bit pricey but the quality of the product and the overall appearance not to mention the ease of being able to get water out of the dang tube plus the safety cover cap was worth it!I would recommend this item to anyone, I recently used it for one of my rucking sessions and it worked great and also ssooooo much easier to clean.

Qualitativ ein sehr hochwertiger Trinkrucksack und gut verarbeitet. Ich hab ihn an meinem Plattenträger befestigt und bin sehr zufrieden. Er ist dicht und das Mundstück hat ein Quick Release was einen Austausch sehr einfach macht. Da auf der Frontseite auch Mole vorhanden ist konnte ich Prima noch eine Tasche draufsetzen ohne Probleme. Hab den Rucksack für die Dark Emergency 9 gekauft gehabt und er hat es ohne spuren oder auslaufen einwandfrei überstanden. Das Mundstück ist doppelt gesichert gegen auslaufen, einmal durch ein Drehverschluss (muss nur eine viertel Drehung gemacht werden) und danach muss das Mundstück aufgezogen werden wie z.B. Powerrade Flaschen. Dadurch ist auch das Mundstück sehr auslaufsicher.Pro:- Sehr Hochwertig-Dicht in jeder Position-Trinkbeutel ist leicht zu entnehmen und zu reinigen-Low Profile-Langer Trinkschlauch-Schnellverschluss an der Trinkblase zum befüllen und trotzdem Dicht-Mundstück mit Kappe versehen um es vor Schmutz zu schützen-Mundstück ist angewinkeltContra:-Preis

Buy this now. I've been shopping for a year for hydration bags and always getting let down. This fits the back of the vest perfectly without wasting any space or exceeding the back plate area. They really did their research on this one I mean it fits perfect. I was able to get multiple bags on the exterior Molly Everything just fit perfect. It's also low profile which completely helps out. And the hydration bag comes with it which is the glass tasting technology. This is my 2nd source bag and I was impressed with the 1st one. I was looking at odoms, crye, AND EVEN Patrol incident gear and SKD (which I use ,love and have multiple items from both) But this one destroyed them all! Thank you source for making an amazing pouch and bag. All the guessing and homework was done by you guys all I had to do was fork down and buy it. If you guys wanna send me some of your stuff I'll review it non biased !

This is designed to fit on a plate carrier, but also works on any surface with molle of this size and that can carry 3L of water. Combine this system with the UTA (universal tube adapter) for filling the hydration pack without removing the bladder and you have a GREAT system.Some people don't like the 'storm' twist valve and would prefer a bite valve. I personally like the twist valve, can do it one handed and like that the material is quality plastic, so easier to clean than a spongy bite valve. I haven't used it long term but the storm valve seems like it will last a lot longer than a bite valve. If you want a bite valve, you can order one and pop it on. Keep the storm as a spare.The quality of the molle, pouch and bag is top shelf.3L is a lot of water, so make sure your system can handle it. Check dimensions and weights etc. (about 7 lbs with pouch). So far, all my Source products are great. Antimicrobial (no scunge yet), easy to clean, easy to use, functional etc.
