The Classic also boasts such essentials as a comfortable and breathable soft mesh harness, a secure Bungee cinch system that holds extra clothing, an external zip pocket for your keys and other valuables, and reflective details that help you stay visible in low-light conditions. As a final bonus, the Omega reservoir is well insulated-- helping keep your liquids chilled for hours--and is backed by a lifetime warranty. The pack itself, meanwhile, carries a two-year warranty. About CamelBak
CamelBak is the originator and world leader in hands-free hydration systems. The first CamelBak products proved to be very popular among mountain bikers and motocross riders, because it allowed them to drink without taking their hands off of the handlebars in technical terrain. The product began to cross over into other sports when scientific studies showed athletes drank more fluids and performed better when they wore a CamelBak. Since then, athletes from an ever-growing list of sports and activities use CamelBak hydration systems for their convenience and performance benefits. In addition to cycling, CamelBak has Hands-Free Hydration systems for hiking, running, snowboarding and skiing. CamelBak's state-of-the-art packs and hydration systems have benefited athletes, outdoorsmen, and soldiers around the world. While CamelBak has grown tremendously since the early days, one thing hasn't changed: CamelBak still believes in the performance advantage that proper hydration delivers for just about any activity. The privately-held company is headquartered in Petaluma, California.

 Excellent for hydrating on the run September 25, 2009
J. Sarvis (Orlando, FL)
Need both of your hands for a protest, or some other activity? Want to stay hydrated on those hot tropic days?
This camelbak does the job! A little hard to clean, but the models with straps are much more useful to wear.
Just keep it dry and clean when you aren't using it, or you will want to replace the bladder.
Great gift for my active boyfriend April 5, 2009

Camelbak Saved My Life July 17, 2008

I purchased the 2L Camelbak just before the 206 mile Seattle to Portland (STP) bicycle run. It was over 90 degrees F and there was no way I could have stayed hydrated using a conventional rack mounted bicycle water bottle. During a meal stop near Portland, OR the waitress filled it with ice water - SUPER!
Great item December 28, 2007

 Great Pack for Female Runners Too September 12, 2007

Amazon lists this pack for men, but the truth is it works for EVERYBODY. It doesn't say male or female on the label. You don't have to be a guy (or even be built like one) to enjoy the benefits of the Classic Camelbak. I gave in and bought one after having trouble finding decent reviews for women's versions (I tried one on in the store before coming back to Amazon). All of the straps are very adjustable (the chest strap can be lowered a lot or pulled or off), and they feel very smooth (no sharp edges) for nylon. It has a zippered pocket that has enough room for a car key, 2-3 gels, and a small cell phone. If you add cold water, it insulates it and keeps it cold til the very end. So far I've taken my Classic on a few 4-16 mile runs with me (including a 10-miler on a 90-degree day), and I am happy with it.
There's only two things I'd really change:
1) The straps get looser the longer you run (as you drink) so it continually has to be tightened during long runs. It seems like adding some sort of bungie/elastic in the straps may help.
2) It needs a key clip in the pocket. The CamelBak Catalyst has this kind of function, and it really makes life easier as I don't worry about losing my car key while reaching in for a gel.
Other than that, I am *very* pleased with this pack. I heartily recommend this pack for both male and female runners.
