Fox Men's Oasis Hydration Pack

I bought this pack because it is a little bigger than my current hydration pack. I love the small pocket for my IPOD or my smart phone. It is a great way to keep from having to attach it to your person. The pack is just the right size to carry the essentials for a bike ride (i.e. wallet, cash, pocket knife, bike tools, personal protection, etc.). The vertical padding on the pack that rides against your back is comfortable. The pack overall is great and comfortable to wear. The hydration portion of the pack is easy to remove and fill. I am able to leave it in the fridge/cooler prior to taking off on a ride and it attaches securely with a clip inside the pack. If you are looking for a good quality pack with great looks, you will not go wrong with this one. No complaints

I love this hydration pack I use it three times a week and I personally haven't had any problems. There is plenty of pockets for storage and it is also very water proof. The only change I made was that I use a camel bak bladder becasue it is larger and from my past experience every bladder leaks beside camelbak ones. So I haven't used the bladder from this one but if you want a durable hydration pack for a good price buy this one.

This pack is awesome. It turns out that this pack is very comfortable while Mountain biking. Plenty of room for storage of bike tools, spare tubes and granola bars for the long trail rides. The only problem I had was with the bite valve, it tore after about 6 rides. It turned out to be a easy replacement. Great quality value for the money spent on this pack.

My last hydration pack was the aerodynamic Camelbak "Rocket". It was a very streamlined pack for mountain biking, but I wanted just a little more room to pack supplies, tools, and extra clothes in cooler temps, and be able to carry more than 70 oz of fluid given my rides have gotten longer during the hot summer months, than they were historically. I was initially worried this Fox pack may be a little too roomy and that I'd miss the light, aerodynamics of the Camelbak. While I do miss those features, I have more peace of mind when I hit the trails as I can pack a lot more and I can always carry extra gear with no trouble. There can be some drastic changes in temperatures and weather where I live and now it's no trouble to throw in a different pair of gloves, jacket, etc.

Love the bag. Bought it as a Father's Day gift my husband. We took it on our first 3 day hike and it leaked from the bottom. I hate to send it back because I love everything about the bag, but it's useless if it leaks.

The Fox Men's Oasis Hydration Pack offers just about everything a mountain biker or hiker would need in terms of comfort, weight, capacity and appareance. The up to, 3-liter bladder allows for extended mountain bike activity without adding too much extra weight. The clip on whistle and side pocket are nice compliments. The only drawback I could find is that the bladder does not have a quick dis conned hose, despite being advertized as having one.

This pack is awesome. I reviewed all the other pack's and this one is by far the best. It's the perfect size, not too big or small with enough room for tools. The bladder is great, big opening so ice cube and water fill w/ ease. The attachment point for the bag is also a plus. I tried the Camel Bak Lobo first and sent it back; the Fox pack is definitely superior. No disappointments here, a great buy.

I like the pack but the reservoir made in China by Hydropak is awful. The horrible chemical taste will not go away even with lemon juice, baking soda and Listerine flushes. If the water tastes this bad it can't be good for you. Returned it and will use normal bottles.
