Here is a unique nutrition belt for longer races and training sessions
where you don't have any support. They come in 4 sizes to fit
every-body. The advantage of such an elastic belt over bottle
holders is that the weight is distributed around your hips, so there is
no bouncing weight or sloshing. You easily forget that you are carrying
up to 16 oz. (4x4) of fluid in the four flasks. The elastic is
strong enough to hold the weight, but soft enough to not cut into your
skin. There is a handy velcro-ed key pocket at the front for
small flat items, like ID, money, Ibuprofen and even a key.
The bottles are made of semi-transparent flexible low-density PE
plastic. The caps are US-standard-sized and can
be used as replacements for many of the
common gel and water flasks on the market (diameter of 33mm (1.3")
measured
on the
outside of the threads).
These flasks will fit the belts and carriers sold by many other brands,
like Ultimate Directions®, Lava
belt, TNi and
Fuelbelt®, which use a similar 4oz (140ml) flask (size 2" x 1.5" x
4.25"
high (51x38x108 mm)). These are not the
larger flat 6-7 oz. flasks you find on some Ultimate, Ironman®
Fuelbelt® and TNi belts.
The belts are sized in 10cm (3.9") increments. This table shows
you the actual end-to-end length of the belt, so you need to subtract
the length of velcro 13cm (5") where the front pocket is to arrive at
the actual circumference to Pick the size that
is smaller than your actual waist size (pant size). i.e.; if you have a
34" waist the L belt would not fit tightly enough, since it is already
34.4" unstretched. The M size would be the correct choice. The XL
belt can easily stretch to a waist of 55", so this means the belts can
stretch 40% or more from their unstretched length.
