Backpack Water Bottle and Snack Holder

I guide backpacking and mountaineering trips, go on fastpack adventures, and am an untrarunner. I have yet to see a pack this won't work well on, including my 5yo son's backpacking pack. Note that it is too skinny for a Nalgene, but for good reaaon - you wouldn't want that much bulk/weight on the front. Buy a bottle of water at the grocery store that fits, and reuse it. Also fits a 0.6L Hydrapack water filter soft flask, which is the best backpacking filter currently.

Great product -although I had to alter mine. My back pack would not come apart to slide on so I cut elastic straps and sewed them back after placing it on my strap ..

I love the simple light weight design. Could be a little bigger in diameter for most standard reusable water bottles. A tall SmartWater bottle fits well.

Over all this works OK, however the straps that go behind the shoulder strap to keep the bottle from bouncing are a solid piece. This works great if you can seperate you shoulder strap and slide them over. However my packs all have sewn rolled ends (a common feature so it does not slide all the way out) which means I either have to pick out the stiches, put the pouch on then reroll the end of that strap, or find another way. I found another way, which was to tie it down with short pieces of cordage, but that means it bounces more.This could have been avoided if the retention straps had either Velcro connection points or some kind of small buckle.

Love these little pockets! I included the image to show them on a variety of backpacks.Clockwise from top left, Gregory 35L, Osprey 25L, ZPacks 60L, Gregory 18L. Single images, ZPacks 60, Osprey 18, Gregory 35.I had no problem attaching to any of the backpacks, sometimes would use a loop of Paracord on an attachment point on the pack.The only modification I made to the pocket was to add a little shock cord on the bottom pocket, so I can cinch it shut (since my glasses case doesn't always fill it in enough to make the smaller pocket tight for my knife and chapstick).Size wise, I have a long torso, so my packs are all large mens except 'one size' for the 18L.

It fit just fine but the cheap elastic bands that hold it to your should strap wouldn't last very long. Save your money. I returned it.

Great fit for the Osprey Eja Bags! Their cell phone pocket is also a must!

Works great super easy to set up and super helpful planning to order another one for the other side
