I have become more conscious of taking in an increased amount water during the day for better overall health. When outdoors and hiking, cycling, gardening, or even doing home improvement projects, it’s nice to have water easily accessible. Cups and sports bottles can sometimes be bulky and not always the most convenient. The Crave Outdoor Hydration Backpack allows you to carry 1.5 L on your back in a comfortable and convenient backpack.
The bladder to this product is detachable and removable. The hose screws in and out from one end of the bladder for thorough cleaning. There are two pockets inside the backpack so you can hold another item inside or even use it as a backpack for other things if you need to.
A large opening has been provided for easy filling and emptying. The lid is also screws on and off to help prevent leaking. The material used for the bladder is BPA free.
Tubing from the bladder is then fed out near the top of the backpack in a hole that is between the shoulder straps. It has a bite valve for hands free use.
Two sets of straps help disperse the weight from the backpack and water more evenly across the torso.
The Crave Hydration Backpack measures 17″ x 2″ x 10″. It is labeled to fit chest sizes from 27″ to 55″. There is one gray pocket with a zipper closure, a red pocket with Velcro closure and two gray pockets near the base of the straps that have a magnetic closure for keys, wallet, snack, and maybe an MP3 player. Depending on the size of your phone, it may fit in the provided pockets too.
This backpack is covered with Rip Stop Nylon, which keeps water away in a light rain. The 1.5 L Crave Outdoors Hydration Backpack is currently $32.99 on Amazon.com.
