Raidlight Responsiv 18L Vest

With a really low weight, comfortable fit and improved storage this vest is ideal for longer races or events with more kit requirements. Top design features make this a great pack to use, no matter what the conditions are like. 

Raidlight says:

With the Responsiv 18L you can go longer, further and harder. Additional capacity over the 12L little brother, extra features allow for extra distances.

Raidlight's Responsiv 18L Vest is a high performance vest pack. With lightweight materials and adjustment through dials this vest stays close and massively reduces any bounce while running. The upgrade to micro mesh on the rear panels of the vest have had a massive impact on increasing the comfort and performance levels too.

The main updates from the older Responsiv 18L version are security. This pack has a lot more secure storage. The main compartment has a dual zip instead of a basic drop pocket. There are also two extra, small zip pockets on the shoulder straps and one of the waist pockets has been given a zip closure too. The addition of compression straps across the pack is also useful on a larger capacity pack like this, making it more versatile for shorter trips.
