I had always worn a jacket with it so hadn't realised its full evil potential until yesterday... I have two horrible red marks on either side of my neck due to chaffing. I will never wear it whilst running again and I kicked it in disgust when I took it off. It was horrible and not the think she need to be thinking about when faced with a bloody long run. It seemed to move about more than ever too despite being fully tightened. Can anyone recommend something with a decent sized bladder, which has another compartment for a set of clothings, waist pockets and about all else, doesn't move and chaffe??

No bladder, but routing to take the one from your Camelbak. Only time it has chafed is where I was a numpty and stuffed something hard and inflexible into a waist pocket without thinking about it.

starsnspikes Mar 2011 12:29pm, 13 Mar 2011 9 posts	Quote Pin starsnspikes I just got the OMM Adventure Light 20L. It's so beautifully comfy. Really plush and light too. It has pockets around the waist strap which is also handy. The only thing I found with it was that it did move a little more than I would have liked, and I think this is due to my fairly tiny frame. The thing is, if it's well packed it's not too much of a problem. I wear it with light clothing too and it's been great (although I haven't tried it without a jacket). Anyway after buying it I decided that I wanted to try a smaller one, and seeing as my boyfriend could use the 20L one I decided to buy the OMM Last Drop 10L, then I had the choice between them. That's much better in terms of size, although it isn't anywhere near as comfy. The straps aren't padded and it doesn't hug me as much as the other one. I'd recommend either. It depends on your size and how much you're carrying. But if you want comfort then the Adventure Light is great.
