Black Diamond Distance 6L Running Vest

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"The Distance 6 is my go-to when I need more space than a race vest but still want to move light. The fit is secure with no bounce, the mesh breathes well, and I like that it comes with two flasks but also has room for a bladder on longer days."When the mission calls for just a little more room, the Black Diamond Distance 6L Running Vest hits the sweet spot. With 6 liters of storage, it balances fast-and-light performance with the capacity to carry extra layers, food, and hydration for endurance runs or big alpine linkups. Soft edge binding and diamond mesh construction provide next-to-skin comfort and breathability, even on long, high-output days. Two front flask pockets (with 500mL flasks included) keep hydration ready, while a rear bladder pocket gives the option of carrying a reservoir for extended efforts. Thoughtful storage includes a lumbar pocket for shells and snacks, an upper back pocket for extra gear, and a zippered front pocket with key leash for security. Add in Black Diamond’s removable Z-Pole system for efficient trekking pole management, and the Distance 6 Vest is ready for any mountain objective where speed and storage both matter.
