The Salomon Active Skin 8 Set Unisex Pack with Bottles is a streamlined hydration vest engineered for long trail and marathon runners who prioritise lightweight comfort, intuitive access, and efficient storage. With a close-fitting design, this 8L pack is built for movement, breathability, and bounce-free performance over shorter to mid-distance adventures.

It includes two 500mL soft flasks for on-the-go hydration and is bladder compatible (up to 1.5L, bladder not included), offering versatile hydration options depending on your training needs. The updated SensiFit construction wraps the body like a second skin using soft stretch fabrics, inner mesh, and Quick Link adjustable sternum straps for superior fit and stability. The 3D Comfort back system with 3D Airmesh shoulder straps maximise airflow and ventilation, keeping you cool even during intense efforts. Equipped with multiple secure and stretch pockets - two front stretch pockets, one back compartment, one front zipped pocket, and one internal pocket - the pack provides optimal organisation for essentials, snacks, and gear.

Added features like the bungee elastic cord for jacket storage and compatibility with the Salomon Custom Quiver make this pack a versatile companion for trail running and outdoor pursuits.

Staff Review - Jess D.

This pack ticks all the boxes including affordability. I love how much storage it has in the front pockets, I can keep all my bits and pieces at arms reach. It has enough storage if I want to use it on a day hike or a 30 min jog.

Excellent pack for running

, 10 April 2021

From the moment I put this pack on it felt good. I’m 100cm chest and size L is perfect. I purchased a 2L bladder from anaconda for $20 and filled that plus the 2 x 500ml soft bottles that came with this pack and ran 30km for my first run with this pack on. The method of installing the water bladder line to the front is interested, but once installed is absolutely amazing. I’ve had a few different camelbak bladder packs before and this is far better. The pack feels fantastic. It moves with your body, stretches when needed and does not rub. There are plenty of pockets up front - several on each side. I had the water bottles plus food, electrolyte and gels in the front and there was still plenty of space. The back storage section is huge as well. I had a snake bandage plus a heaps of other stuff - suncream, bandaids, spare socks, insect repellant, fruit, etc. I only filled maybe 1/3 of the back storage. The clips at the front are small but they seem to be fairly strong, and the overall construction is fairly tuff as well. When I ran it was a 28degC day with little breeze and the pack didn’t seem to cause me to sweat any more than normal. The back is a very soft and airy mesh. Overall, I’m very happy.
