Salomon Advanced Skin Cross Season
Best weather-resistant hydration vest for long-distance trail runners.
This vest takes the gold-standard fit of a race pack and wraps it in weather-resistant armor. You sacrifice a bit of breathability for the sake of keeping your gear bone-dry, making it the ultimate choice for unpredictable shoulder-season miles where the forecast is merely a suggestion.
