CamelBak Classic™ (2007 Model) (True Blue/Graphite)

Product Description

A step up in capacity from the HydroBak, the Classic offers a 70 oz OMEGA Reservoir in a simple, low-profile design. Perfect for entry-level users or performance cyclists alike.

I got this for my boyfriend who loves the outdoors- skiing, camping, hiking, kayaking, biking, etc....He was really excited to get this- it made a great birthday present!


I purchased the 2L Camelbak just before the 206 mile Seattle to Portland (STP) bicycle run. It was over 90 degrees F and there was no way I could have stayed hydrated using a conventional rack mounted bicycle water bottle. During a meal stop near Portland, OR the waitress filled it with ice water - SUPER!


My son loved this gift. It is very light weight and holds a good amount of water, Easy to use ...Perfect


Amazon lists this pack for men, but the truth is it works for EVERYBODY. It doesn't say male or female on the label. You don't have to be a guy (or even be built like one) to enjoy the benefits of the Classic Camelbak. I gave in and bought one after having trouble finding decent reviews for women's versions (I tried one on in the store before coming back to Amazon). All of the straps are very adjustable (the chest strap can be lowered a lot or pulled or off), and they feel very smooth (no sharp edges) for nylon. It has a zippered pocket that has enough room for a car key, 2-3 gels, and a small cell phone. If you add cold water, it insulates it and keeps it cold til the very end. So far I've taken my Classic on a few 4-16 mile runs with me (including a 10-miler on a 90-degree day), and I am happy with it.

There's only two things I'd really change:

1) The straps get looser the longer you run (as you drink) so it continually has to be tightened during long runs. It seems like adding some sort of bungie/elastic in the straps may help.

2) It needs a key clip in the pocket. The CamelBak Catalyst has this kind of function, and it really makes life easier as I don't worry about losing my car key while reaching in for a gel.

Other than that, I am *very* pleased with this pack. I heartily recommend this pack for both male and female runners.


i purchased my camelbak 9 years ago when i was still in the marine corps..... it has been through hell, and it's still as good as the day i bought it..... i'm buying a new one soon simply because of the newer features and such, NOT because there's anything wrong with the one i have now....camelbak is the original and best hands-free hydration system out there....
