CamelBak Octane XCT Hydration Pack, 70oz

Perfect Camelback. Lightweight the side pockets are the best, easy access to bladder.

Solid hydration pack, a little difficult to clean. Make sure you empty and let dry after each use to avoid mold

Great design and light. Holds plenty of water and keeps it surprising cool if you start out with cold water and ice. It’s comfortable and adjustable, but the waist strap my be tight or unusable for someone with a significant gut, but it stays on just fine without the waist strap. Storage is sufficient for a few small essentials for a half day hike. If you want more than an energy bar for sustenance, look for a different hydration device. The bladder was easy to fill and load into backpack. Just be sure to hang it from the strap at the top of the pack or it will slip down and may not flow properly. The flow of water through the mouthpiece is adequate. Emptying, rinsing, and drying the bladder is also simple and essential to ensure its ready for the next use. I’m very happy with this purchase.

The hydration pack itself looks well made. I just did not like the bladder as the water sloshes around a lot during a run. I heard you have to remove the air or fill to the very top but have not tried it.

This is NOT what it appears. It might be made by Camelbak, but this item is definitely very poor quality. The straps are not padded. The padding in the back is a joke. The fabric is cheesy. I would NOT by this product had I known this is what it is.

Ive been a fan of the Camelbak products for years- this one is great for longer races! The only thing that I would improve is the company to make a more womens specific fit of this item, as the chest area is seemingly built for more larger framed people, however you can adjust it pretty snug! Great sturdy zippers and and easy to use reservoir make this a no brainer!

Great for really really long runs. Had to buy the Octane dart for short runs as it was half the size of this one.

Peu volumineux, des rangements là où il faut, une capacité suffisante pour 3h à 4h de vélo, facile à régler au niveau des sangles. Un produit développé pour les sportifs !

The backpack shipped but not the water reservoir. I was very pleased with the backpack itself - super light, fits well.

This is exactly what I needed for Summer when I dont need to pack a rain coat, hoodie, gloves or hat. Has plenty of storage for the essentials. The straps are very adjustable and the pack itself is lightweight. Very happy with the pack.
