Customer Reviews Osprey Duro 1.5

To cut to the chase: I'm a hot natured person who lives in Texas. So when I run, I sweat a lot. Even my shorter runs can be very water-intensive. Having 1.5 liters of water on my back is basically a necessity, so I wear this thing a lot. It's always been comfortable. Plenty of storage for just about anything you need while running: gels, phone, earbuds, a battery bank during an ultra, wallet, wind jacket, the big front pockets can even swallow a pair of sunglasses without issue. Honestly with all the storage it's too easy to over-pack. Bottom line is that it's a super comfy pack that just works.

I love this pack! It fits me perfectly, while allowing me to carry up to 2.5L of water, small snacks, phone, wallet, and keys. If I wanted to carry more than that I would get the 6L version. For trail running and mountain biking I don't really need to carry more that what I listed so I decided to get the smaller 1.5L so the pack isn't jiggling around while I'm moving. I like it so much I might get the 6 liter for days where I might want to bring a jacket and more food.

I've had this pack for almost two years now and I have been very happy with it. I tried a few other packs before this one and returned them all so I was happy when after a few runs I didn't hate this one and return it! I've worn this for probably 100-150 hours while running and can't recall a time it chafed or bugged me. Really like the adjustment "belts" on the sides and the front and can easily loosen or tighten while on the run. I wore this pack for just over 4 straight hours while completing the Madison Marathon in 2019 and did not get sick of it or regret my decision to wear it at all. Very happy with my purchase.

Whilst I was able to find a few issues I would personally change, there isn't a pack or race vest that I wouldn't. Over all this is a very good pack and hydration system that does exactly what it days it will do and will surprise you on how comfortable it is. I had read that it was a heavier type of vest / pack from reviewers but I did not find that to be the case. This is one well made tough vest / pack and will last a long time, it fits perfectly (for me at 5 foot 7 and 80kg). I was also surprised on how much actual storage there is on this thing, more than you will realize. This is as usable as a small back pack as well as a racing / trail running system I bought the additional 500ml soft flasks with straws and bite valve caps and all these things fit nicely on this and really allows you to increase distance without the need to stop. Will advise to others

I used this for the first time today for a 9 mile run and it met all my expectations. Fit comfortably, every pocket (besides the ones on the back) were easily accessible and bladder worked great. Never felt uncomfortable and the water rests high on the back so felt like no additional weight.

I'm new to the running vest world and I'm not even sure this is for running but that's how I use it. I found this best to be in the right price point for everything you get. It's highly customizable with straps on the front and sides. I swapped out the bladder for an insulated Hydropack bladder because I live in Texas and warm water is gross. The Hydropack fit perfectly. I didn't know Hydropack makes Ospreys bladders until I called Osprey and talked to the rep when I was inquiring about an insulated bladder. For my runs I use osprey's collapsible 500ml bottle in one of the pockets for my electrolytes. I'm able to carry my IPhone XR in the pocket on the front, my gummies, salt stick and more in the compartments. There is also a big pocket on the back. I experience no chafing and I run in tank tops. I absolutely love this pack and am very happy with my purchase. Osprey is a great company and produces amazing equipment. Oh, and I'm a female, 5'11" 185lbs and I got the men's red M/L. Highly recommend it.

Perfect pack. Have used ti for multiple trail runs and ultras and couldn't ask for more. It hugs the body great, has zero bounce and more storage than you could ask for.

Great fit and it's comfortable. Always good to have another hydration pack. First one from Osprey for me

Osprey products never seem to disappoint and this is no exception. Light, functional, and exceptionally well-constructed!

A perfect litre size to my Osprey arrangement of packs. :)

Perfect for day hikes or any long day outside. I've used this for festival days and day hikes in the local stay parks :)

Comfortable stem with enough storage for basics. Holds enough hydration for most holes and rides.

Great tight fit and comfortable to run with! Just enough water for your run and pockets for the essentials. I was sceptical how much I would use this pack since I have other hydration systems. This pack is my new "go-to" for running. No bouncing at all!

Just what I needed. I already had an Osprey running backpack and it always felt too big. This fits just what I need.

Ordered bladders for the straps and haven't used the reservoir on the back yet. Love how it hugs your whole body and doesn't have any pinch points.

I love how comfortable it is and light! I use it all the time.

Osprey is one of my favorite outdoor brands. While I have a Nathan trail running vest, I needed something smaller. Perfect size to fit my line up.

I love how comfortable it is and light! I use it all the time.

Not only are the bright colors beautiful but there are a lot of very thoughtful elements here. I appreciate the fit and all the little stretchy gear pockets.

I've actually been wanting one of these for a while, and it was perfect that it came in my spring collection. It fits like a glove, and it's going to get a lot of use this summer.

Just when I thought I had enough camelpaks, you sent me this guy! I actually really love it, I hate running with a camelpak because they do bounce a fair amount. Now I have a bounce-proof one though, and I love the pocket space on this thing for my long runs when refilling my hand bottle is impractical.

Fits great and doesn't move! I love packs like these for running! This is an awesome addition to my running kit.

Bought this pack for running and OCR, definitely lives up to the Osprey name

This thing has made trail running for me a millions times better. You can really stretch out the hours. It's forget about it light, and the material is soft enough to be able to run with out a shirt underneath. No chaffing! My only complaint is that I wish it had a small stretch pocket on the back.

I've logged about 60 miles in this pack (runs 7+ miles long) and I love it. The one exception is the Osprey tag that is on the front left side of the vest. Every once in awhile especially when I have a really slow jog or walk, it scrapes on my inner left arm. Not a huge deal, I just wish the tag was in a different place.
