Whether you’re bombing down city streets or cruising along backcountry trails, you’ll need fuel, water, and a good place to store your phone, and there's no more convenient place to stash everything than inside a running vest. Along with well-made running shorts and a good pair of running shoes, a running vest is one of those key items that’ll make your runs way more enjoyable. Thankfully, Amazon just went live with a sweet discount on its bestselling reflective vest, and it's less costly than you might think.
The Revali Running Vest is on sale for just $30—a 34% discount on its normal price of $46. This vest has accumulated over 500 five-star ratings from runners who say it "fits perfectly." It’s currently the No. 1 bestselling piece of reflective gear on Amazon as well. The discounted pricing is available across all colorways—black, gray, and bright fluorescent yellow—and in each of the two standard sizes.
The Revali Running Vest is designed to keep all your essentials close at hand and secure when in motion. It stands out with its innovative front zipper design, which creates a snug fit, so the vest won’t jostle around as you move while adjustable side straps help you fine-tune the vest to your body proportions. Crucially, it has lots of useful storage, including pockets for keys, credit cards, and gels. There’s also a spacious phone pocket with a clear plastic window that can flip open, so you can view your notifications or a map at a glance without pulling your phone out of the vest. Better yet, the vest includes a 500ml soft flask for portable hydration and large reflective patches that increase your visibility at night.
Runners are raving about the Revali Running Vest, with many calling out the vest’s excellent fit and feel. One runner used it for a 50K race and stayed comfortable the whole time. “Wore it in the race for the first time for over five hours and didn’t chafe,” they said. Another shopper agreed, noting that it “works great for long runs."
In addition to the overall comfy fit, several shoppers zeroed in on the included soft flask as a major plus. “The bottle is my favorite thing,” a shopper said. "I love how it shrinks as you drink so that the liquid is not sloshing around in the bottle during the running motion."
Thanks to its body-hugging design, the Revali Running Vest makes carrying gear and water much easier when hitting the road. But don’t snooze on this one—it's a limited-time deal, which means the savings are going to run away soon.
