Raide LF 2L Running Belt

$299.99

The Raide LF 2L Running Belt rewrites what a running belt can carry. Built for runners who want vest level capacity without anything on their shoulders, it uses an internal suspension system to keep the load dead still against your lower back, even fully loaded with flasks, snacks and a spare layer. Whether you're chasing a big mountain day or just prefer a beltline setup for shorter efforts, this one's built to earn its place on your hips.

  • Stays glued to your back no matter how loaded it is, thanks to an internal suspension system that stops the classic belt bounce and slap
  • Plastic stays and a foam back panel keep the belt riding close to your lumbar instead of sagging away from your body
  • That same foam panel keeps your flask insulated from body heat, so your water stays cooler for longer
  • Seven pockets spread the load logically, so gels, a phone, a light jacket and a flask all have their own spot instead of getting jumbled together
  • Anatomical shaping (narrower up top, wider at the base) means it sits naturally on the hips across a range of body shapes
  • Bungee attachment at the back means poles or an ice axe can hitch a ride when you need hands free
  • Capacity: 2L total, 7 pockets (2 large stuff pockets, up to 4 interior gel pockets depending on size, 1 zippered security pocket)
  • Included hydration: 650mL Hydrapak soft flask with locking cap, compatible with Hydrapak and Katadyn BeFree filter tops
  • Fabric: 150 gsm 70D stretch woven with 3mm x 3mm UHMWPE (Dyneema) ripstop reinforcement, 78% nylon, 6% UHMWPE, 16% Lycra
  • Back panel: 3mm perforated foam with 4 flexible plastic stays
  • Dimensions: 5" tall at the front, 6" tall at the back
  • Weight: from 144g (XS) up to 166g (XL), depending on size
  • Pole and ice tool carry via rear bungee attachment
  • Reflective logo detailing for low light visibility
  • Sizing: XS to XL, available in Black
  • Long trail days and mountain missions where you want vest level storage without the weight on your shoulders
  • Runners who've been put off belts before by bounce, since the suspension system is genuinely built to fix that specific problem
  • Multi-sport adventurers who might swap poles for an ice axe depending on the day
  • Runners who prefer minimal contact points over a full harness style vest
  • Less suited to those wanting a bit more capacity and back support for longer race day efforts. If that's you, the Raide LF 5l Run Vest adds a proper harness system and more room for layers while staying just as low profile.

We wanted something in the range for runners who don't need a full vest's worth of capacity but still want their gear locked down and out of the way. The LF 2L nails that gap. It's quick to grab, easy to adjust and just as capable of running bounce free fully loaded as it is half empty, so it works just as well for a short loop with a flask and a gel as it does for a bigger day out. For anyone who wants vest level stability without committing to a full harness setup, this is the belt that actually pulls it off.
