Reservoir Running Vests

The Nike Hydration Pack Decreases Thirst and Ups Your Visibility

— August 24, 2012 — Lifestyle
It isn't worth your effort to lug a water bottle on a five kilometer run, but the Nike Hydration Pack is the perfect jogging accessory for those occasions when you embark on cross-country excursions of about 10km and more.

Designed by Emil Blanco, this is a clever, compact and ergonomic vest that incorporates a canteen. It has several layers of material to keep your H2O contained, doing so in a soft pouch that's optimized for comfort and the ability to contour your body.

Straps make it easy to sport the Nike Hydration Pack and tabs at both shoulders make the liquid accessible for drinking. The backpack reservoir is even accented with reflective strips so that it increases your visibility during evening roadside runs.
Trend Themes
1. Hydration Pack Running - Running vests with built-in hydration packs offer a disruptive innovation opportunity to the fitness industry by providing comfortable and ergonomic options for long-distance runners.
2. Reflective Running Gear - The use of reflective materials in running vests and other sportswear presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for the fashion industry by creating safer apparel options for outdoor exercising.
3. Flexible Water Containers - Flexible and contourable water containers like those found in the Nike Hydration Pack offer disruptive innovation opportunities to the outdoor recreation industry, providing options for comfortable and personalized hydration during extended activities.
Industry Implications
1. Fitness Apparel - Fitness apparel companies should consider incorporating hydration pack technology into their product lines, providing innovative and comfortable products for long-distance runners.
2. Sporting Goods - Sporting goods companies should explore the use of reflective materials in their products to produce safer options for outdoor exercising.
3. Outdoor Recreation - Outdoor recreation companies should consider the use of flexible water containers, like the ones in the Nike Hydration Pack, to create innovative and comfortable hydration options for hikers, campers, and other outdoor enthusiasts.
