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).

    Excellent Kit

    Beware of other alternatives that simply do not live up to the job. Another excellent piece of kit from Montane.

    Loving my Gecko VP 5L+

    Got this as I start to run longer trail runs. Firstly, really well made (as I've come to expect). Secondly really comfortable when running - no issues with bounce or chafe to report. Storage is ideal for runs where you might just want a waterproof AND another layer at had. Hydration and nutrition placement also works really well.

    The only thing I'd change (and it's aesthetic) is I'd use some different coloured elastic and zip pulls. Just makes things easier to locate when you're tired or stressed.

    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.
