Hey!

I want to encourage economic activity within Europe and also ethically align with recycled materials etc.

I’m trying to buy myself a hydration pack for running long distance with, and it’s hard to convince myself of anything better than osprey:

  • I’m familiar with the company and they have high standards
  • they have a great guarantee to repair products
  • they use recycled materials
  • the product “Duro 6” fits every requirement that I have

Before I go ahead and buy that, can anyone suggest an equal or better product produced in Europe?

I’ve been using the 2l hydration packs from decathlon, and it’s just doing it’s job. Nothing less nothing more, very affordable and purposeful

Edit: nevermind you were talking about the vest itself, not bladder. My bad 😅

Salomon, Silva, and USWE are the ones on top of my mind
