Best Selling Trail Running Hydration Packs

salomonvest

We’ve done #Top7 shoe lists for awhile now–monthly and the big mid-year and end of year reports.

Today we’re unveiling our first ever Top 7 Hydration Pack List: The #Pack7

We’ll continue to do monthly pack reports through the spring and summer and at the end of 2016 crown the Best Packs of the Year!

With shoes, we usually distinguish between men’s and women’s; but with packs, we’ll just do one Top7.  Some of our best sellers are unisex, coming in multiple sizes that both men and women purchase.

#Pack7

(sales from Jan. 1 to April 30)

  1. Salomon S-Lab 12L Set
  2. Salomon S-Lab 5L Set
  3. Salomon S-Lab Sense Ultra Set
  4. Ultimate Direction Adventure Vesta – women’s specific
  5. Ultimate Direction Ultra Vesta – women’s specific
  6. Nathan Vapor Airess – women’s specific
  7. Ultimate Direction PB Adventure Vest 3.0

Check out our full list of packs on our Gear Page.  We have a lot more than 7–including packs from Orange Mud and Ultraspire whose brands’ weren’t represented on the list.

This will be a hard list for any pack to get into, especially with the Salomon dominance.

We could have sold twice as many Salomon packs but lacked inventory early in the year–due to Salomon’s own lack of supply.

The new men’s UD packs were delayed until March, so that put them at a disadvantage since this list’s numbers compiled from January.  We’ll see if they can move up on our May Pack7.

Other later arrivals were: Nathan Fireball and Ultraspire Epic.

Women’s Pack sales are very strong.  I’d guess more than half the Salomon sales were to women.  (Side note: Salomon needs to make a women’s specific S-Lab!  The S-Lab Ellie would be awesome!!)
