"When you crave sustenance in a pinch, reach for the Nathan Elite 1 Plus Pack's five-ounce nutrition flask, suck down some precious energy gel, then follow it up with a glug from the included 22-ounce water bottle. Nathan's angled XTS cradle holds the bottle for quick hydration, and a small zippered pocket secures your phone or keys. Cinch down your gloves or a small jacket in the tension-lock shock cord and clip into the elasticized waistband for all-day comfort on the run. The Elite 1 Plus fits waists from 26 to 42 inches."

From REI:

From RockCreek:
"The Elite 1 Plus Hydration Waistpack by Nathan Sports is the evolution of the running hydration package. Every little detail is focused on with the idea of efficiency, comfort and innovation. Let's start with the bottle that comes with the waistpack. A finger loop with a patent pending Quikclip makes it easy to grab out of the pack or clip to your pack super easily. An offset nozzle makes it easy to drink every precious ounce of fluid and fits standard bicycle bottle cages for versatility.Now the pack. Nathan uses the XTS Cradle concent that flexes to the contours of the body and holds the Hydration Bottle securely in place without bouncing, sloshing or that annoying rub. The wide mouth holster makes taking the bottle in and out intuitive and lightning quick. The Limited Stretch belt is comfy, secure and breathable, with just enough stretch to be non restricting yet bounce free. Also, airmesh moisure wicking lumbar backing provides a pack with less chafing and irritation. With the Elite 1 Plus you get a 5 oz gel flask that fits right in its own flask pocket for convenience and security."

"When stifling humidity and temperatures in the 80s and occasionally 90s impinged on my summer runs, I decided I better get serious about hydrating on the move. I already owned a CamelBak FlashFlo, which until this point I had been ambivalent about."
