KNOW WHAT YOU’RE BUYING

The table below is designed to help you understand where Montane products are made and what they are made from. Lower impact materials have a reduced environmental footprint and increased traceability via third party accreditations. For example recycled content, Responsible Down Standard certified down, and branded yarns like Tencel ™. Where a product uses a DWR you can easily see whether this uses potentially harmful chemistry (PFCs).

Raptor Flex 4-Way Stretch

Enhanced ease of movement is essential for a running pack that will enable you to go further on the trail. Engineered with a stretchy plain weave accommodates for any necessary pack expansion on the move, whilst minimising bounce. Durable abrasion resistance also makes this an incredibly robust mountain companion - able to withstand potential wear and tear on more adventurous trail runs.

POLYGIENE®. Permanent Odour Control.

Pushing yourself hard on the trail can be sweaty business! Luckily this Gecko running pack is treated with POLYGEINE, providing longer-lasting freshness on the move and a fast drying time. How does it work? POLYGEINE inhibits the growth of odour-causing bacteria, stopping smells at the source. All this means you can wear more and wash less. Not only is this good news for you, but it's also good news for the planet.

    Comfortable, effective, high quality

    Used this for a trail marathon where I wanted to carry my own water - did the job perfectly. Lightweight, comfortable, easy to use. Plenty of space (light waterproof and mid-layer in the back, gels & food in side pockets, two good bottles well-positioned high on the straps so I could drink on the move without removing them. front fasteners work really well for quick removal and access. As a Green Runner I try not to buy kit unless it's really essential, and I'm really pleased with this investment as it will equip me well for short & longer runs and should last well.

    Takes getting used to

    If you haven't run with a chest pack before, they take some getting used to. I initially found this bounced around a little too much, despite tight adjustment. With a bit more playing around with the waist strap and double chest strap, I think I've found a more comfortable position in which to wear it, however, it's still not as comfortable as other chest packs I have used. It is, however, well designed with good pocket options on the back without strain on the zip when loaded, and easily accessible front pockets for snacks and essentials. I will keep adjusting as I use it and hopefully will find the sweet spot - don't expect to run with it straight out of the packet unless you've used a Gecko before!
