The versatile Ultimate Direction Women's Ultra Vesta 6.0 effectively balances weight and performance in providing at-the-ready hydration for long-distance trail running or ultra-lightweight fast packing. Despite weighing just 7.8 ounces, the vest carries everything you need for long days on the trail.
The ergonomic vest was designed for Ultimate Direction by a group known as the Women's Collective who incorporated their ideas and trail experiences into the creation of several women-focused gear pieces.
The pack is constructed of lightweight and breathable stretch fabrics. To ensure a proper fit, the vest is available in multiple sizes that based on your chest measurement (at its widest point). The Small size best fits 21"-36" chest sizes, the Medium best fits 24"-40" chest sizes, and the Large best fits 28"-42" chests. Dual sternum straps with sliding adjustability help to fine-tune fit and an integrated Comfort Cinch 3.0 system provides on-the-go fit adjustability across the small of your back without applying undue pressure to your lats or restricting your breathing.
Storage options abound, and the pack has a total capacity of more than 600 cubic inches. The main compartment offers ample storage for up to a 2L hydration reservoir (hydration system sold separately), clothes, and other gear. A rear zig-zag bungee attachment system is ideal for securing gloves, discarded layers, or other items you want to keep readily accessible. On the chest portion of the harness there are multiple pockets. Ultimate Direction includes two soft-sided Body Bottle III 500 soft flasks which together provide 1000ml of at-the-ready hydration. Other features include additional zippered front harness pockets and phone-compatible harness pockets. Rear attachment systems allows you to carry "foldable" trekking poles in a horizontal fashion that reduces "bounce" and keeps poles at the ready but out of your way. If you prefer to carry poles up front, there are also attachment points that allow you to lash them directly to the harness.
