Buyer’s guide for hydration belts
There are various types of hydration belts. Some are insulated and others are simply fitted with a pocket to hold a drink bottle. This buying guide should help you choose the one best suited to your activity.
What differences are there between drink belts?
For your cross country skiing events or long distances races, you have a choice of two types of hydration belt.
Firstly you’ll find classic hydration belts. Simply fitted with a pocket where you can put a flask, they allow fast hydration without the need to stop. During descents a simple arm movement around the back is all you need to grab your bottle. It's a favourite choice of long distance runners, ideal when who have very little time to drink. There's also a little side pocket for carrying an energy bar
The second type of drink belt is undoubtedly the most widely used in the world of Nordic skiing. These ones are isothermal hydration belts that maintain the ideal temperature of your drink throughout your session. Also equipped with a large pocket, these drink belts are able to hold a few accessories, energy products and a spare pair of gloves.
