Ultra Vests offer high-volume storage for ultra distances, Adventure Vests add weather protection and more space for kit-heavy runs, while Race Vests are stripped back for speed and race essentials only.

Utility Belt and Ultra Belt are top choices—both feature stretch pockets for bottles, jackets, and phones, plus secure fit from a magnetic or elasticated closure—making them ideal for races and short, fast training sessions.

Most packs include Body Bottle soft flasks and bladder compatibility, allowing for flexible hydration setups, even for multi-bottle needs on ultra distance routes.

Models use upgraded, weather-resistant ripstop and mesh; key pocket zips are waterproof to protect electronics and nutrition from heavy showers

This adjustable system prevents bounce and hot spots, letting runners fine-tune the chest and back fit mid-run—even over a full kit or with swelling from mileage.

Designed in collaboration with top ultra athletes, UD’s gear emphasises minimal weight, clever storage, fast-access pockets, and stability—real-world tested in harsh mountain and trail conditions.

Hydration belts and minimalist vests work for short races or training, while 10–12L vests with multiple pockets and bladder sleeves suit long ultras or mountain adventures.

Clean after muddy or sweaty runs using gentle soap and air dry; avoid machine washing for vests or belts to preserve technical fabrics, zips, and elastics.
