Ultimate Direction

Tarmac Hydration Vest

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I grabbed the Tarmac Vest for summer training runs and it's become my go-to for anything over 60 minutes. It sits low and super flat, so I barely notice it's there, and the Comfort Glide straps are actually really easy to adjust mid-run. The flask pockets fit my 500mLs securely, and there's enough rear storage for snacks, a layer, and my dog’s water bowl. Simple, breathable, and surprisingly capable for the price."

Whether we’re stepping into our first training block or chasing a distance PR, the Ultimate Direction Tarmac Hydration Vest helps us stay light, cool, and organized with every mile. Minimal in build and breathable by design, this low-profile vest is built to move without bouncing or shifting—even on longer road or trail runs.

With seven thoughtfully placed pockets—including dual flask storage and a rear hydration sleeve—it offers streamlined carry for essentials like water, fuel, and phone. Adjustable Comfort Glide side straps and dual sternum straps fine-tune the fit, while reflective accents keep us visible when the light fades. From warm-up jogs to weekend long runs, the Tarmac keeps pace with breathable comfort and run-specific storage in a sleek silhouette.
