SharkMouth Hydration Backpack, Hiking Hydrated Pack with 2.5L Water Bladder, Multi Pocket Organizer, Lasts Long Day Mountaineering Trips, Travel and Journey

Living in Arizona having water readily available can be crucial to a persons health. I regret not buying this sooner. The quality of the materials are generally good. Well see how durable the shell is. The bladder is easy to clean with a large mouth, which also allows for lots of ice (a must!) Satisfied with its performance so far. Worth the price.

Great little pack for day trips. Nice and expandable and can hold a good amount. We typically use it for snacks and extra clothes when we hike. Ive only used the water bladder once, but it worked great. No leaks. Pack is lightweight and comfortable. I wouldnt recommend it for an overnight trip, unless your an extremely light packer. I wont say its undoable, but it would be tight. Especially if youre some place cold and need to pack thick warm stuff. Weve used ours nearly every weekend since purchasing it and so far all the zippers work great, no rips or tears. Seems to be made of good sturdy material. I recommend it, especially for short day trips where you dont want to lug around a big pack!

I saw others complained of a plastic taste to the water from the pouch so i was worried. I soaked the inside of my pouch with a dishwashing detergent pod and hot water for 10 minutes. Then I rinsed it out thoroughly until squeaky clean. Be sure to get it fully out of hose by pulling on the mouthpiece continually so the water flows freely through the hose. My husband didn’t want tall the fuss on his and so just washed with soap and water. Well he said his tasted like a toy from Toys ‘R Us from his childhood. Lol like the inside of an inner tube for the pool. Terrible, especially for a hot day. We hiked 8 miles on a beach and we loved all the features of these bags. My only 2 complaints is that the mouthpiece is difficult to get a serious drink from, it’s ALOT of work to get thirst quenched quickly, so it’s better to really just continually sip while walking. The other complaint is that in sand, the cover for the mouthpiece allows sand to get in. It’s not sealed tight enough. So be sure to put tip of mouthpiece with cover on back into the zippered compartment before putting bag onto the sand. Other than that, the water stayed cold on an 86 degree day for over 6 hours with our drive and hike. Next time I’d put ice into the pouch however to make it ultimately refreshing. All the pockets were so convenient with double zippers. I was able to keep a cold canned zevia soda in the insulated pouch as well and it stayed cold for hours. Really thoroughly pleased. Well worth the money and very comfortable. I’m 5’2” and short waisted with a 32” inseam. But the bag fit me perfectly, didn’t hang awkwardly like other back packs. I was wearing a tank top and by the end of the hike the bag rubbed a little on right arm but nothing to leave a rash.this was the most comfortable back pack I’ve ever worn. It didn’t feel as tho I was carrying 3/4 of a gallon of water at all. I packed my lunch in bag as well and bug spray etc. all in all my by weighed 12lbs fully packed but it was effortless to carry. My husband felt the same way about his bag. Would highly recommend this bag!

Pack came in fast was the size color and could do everything i needed it to do

I was initially worried about the size of this backpack. I was heading out on a hiking trip to Montana and knew I would be doing long daily hikes carrying rain gear, layers, food, and water. This pack managed to hold everything I needed. I particularly like the insulated pocket for the water bladder. I slid my lunch in there and it kept everything cool. I am happy with the purchase!

Ive had this backpack for an entire year I think or close enough to it. Ive put loads of hiking miles on it and its a great bargain. Ive been looking at more expensive bags and so far I havent even found one I like as well as this one no matter the cost. First the hydration bag is decent. Mouth wide enough to get my hand into to turn inside out and clean and insulated line so it doesnt get hot in summer or freeze during winter. Line does still freeze when youre out there in freezing temps tho but easily overcome by tucking inside clothes. AND, this is what Im NOT seeing in more expensive bags, the area where hydration bag stores is insulated! Yay! Its managed to keep my water cool for 4 hr hikes in very hot summer. Plenty of zipped areas, place for car keys etc. Fits well enough for me to occasionally do a little trail running too but not my preferred bag for that activity.

Bag is not too big and has sufficient room for storage even with a filled bladder. A couple of flaws but not a deal breaker IMO. The straps for the bladder are a little too long. The straps on the bag are left to flop around. Should have a band or velco for extra material. And the drinking spout limits the water flow a little too much for my liking. But that could be a good thing as it stops u from over drinking.

Holds just the right amount of water and has enough pockets to travel with anything you might need. Very useful for music festivals and also for hiking!

This bag is a great size and the ‘sharkmouth’ openings are perfect to reach inside the bag. I was hunting for a bag that was more compact and this is perfect for a 5’4” slim teenager to carry without the bulkiness of a standard backpack. We needed a feeding pump backpack for our daughter while she had her NG feeding tube, with few straps I was easily able to modify this pack. I added Velcro straps to the current bladder Velcro straps (inside) to hold her bag of feed and ice pack. The monitor fit nicely at the bottom with no tube kinking. It has the thermo backing inside to keep the liquid cool. The zipper and wide ‘mouth’ opened nice a wide for quick access to every pockets and to the feeding machine as needed. Our daughter used different pockets for all the feeding pump supplies, couple of water bottles, meds, her wallet with ease. Now that the feeding tube has been removed our daughter looks forward to using this again for outings as hydration bag or regular pack.

I like backpacks. I just love how functional they are. Ive bought a ton of them over the years. This has to be one of the best ones Ive ever had. It reminds me a bit of Swiss Gear which is my favorite backpack brand. It was challenging trying to find something small but still had a lot of storage. But I found it!
