Looking to buy a vest for my trail running needs. I dont want anything too big or too expensive. Will mainly be used for run up to marathon lenght but maybe one 50km so I can tick the box and fit the nice medal in my box.
I would need to fit the stuff I mainly take:
Keys, Samsung phone soft flask 2*500ml water proof. ( I dont drink a a huge of amount of fuild but makes more sense to take it out with me for when warmer weather comes) Few gels would be great but I have got some trail shorts coming that can store some gels and snacks in)
Long sleeve top/windproof or waterproof
Space blanket and first aid kit.
Head torch
Some of the above is mandatory race gear. But it does make sense to carry another layer/ first aid kit on longer trail runs in winter.
I'm looking at the agile 2
( would need to store all the snacks in my short then the in the vest)
Deacathlon 5l trail pack or there 10l pack,
I not a huge fan of how the 5l is on the front as it cant store a huge amount on the outside)
But I also think the 10l is too big for what I would actually need it for for most of the time.

as far as compulsory kit ive seen bigger mandatory kit list than what you have written down above if used on ultras you might need more space.
front of that one has a number of pockets, i'd prefer to have some that zipped or could be secured. but you should be able to fit all what you listed in there.
