Does anybody know the best drinks bladder to fit in the rear pocket of the Hein Gericke Tuareg Rallye jacket (last year’s version)? I tried Platypus ones for size but the shape wasn’t quite right.
 
I have a Camel Bak that fits nicely in the rear (bum) pocket of my Master IV suit. It holds 2 litres and the tube runs neatly up the outside.
Very easy to fill and keep clean :thumb
Available from Hein Gericke.

Does the tube route through the jacket or on the outside?
 
The tube routes through the inside of the jacket and emerges through a hole in the front breast pocket.

What a revolting sounding name, what brain dead marketing moron thought that up ? :spitfire :spitfire
Strange.....I thought you'd be into urolagnia :rolleyes:
 
Thats a touch :nono :nono my fellow GSer.

Do we have a problem here ? :confused:

To clarify my statement I still think that a drinks bladder sounds revolting whereas a camel back is easily understood, and has a far nicer name.

No, you just seem quite good at taking the piss.... ;)

To paraphrase Korzybski....."the name is not the thing named".

It's Camelbak BTW.... :)
 
I didn’t mean to upset anyone here with use of the word bladder but that’s exactly what it is. I didn’t use the term Camelbak as that is a particular make of product and anyway I couldn’t find a Camelbak bladder that fitted: they all appear to be designed to fit vertically. Furthermore, the term Camelback tends to imply a complete strap-on system- I’m only looking for a bladder to fit in my back pocket. I can’t think why you find the word bladder revolting, Noddy. All it is is a distensible bag, nothing to do with “ brain dead marketing morons”. :nenau Don’t you remember the old lace-up leather footballs with the removable bladder? If you still find it revolting, try looking up a dictionary. I’m sure that will explain things to you. You wouldn’t be one of those people who refer to a bitch as a lady dog, would you? Anyway, didn’t mean to cause offence to anyone!! :thumb
 
No offence taken Gav, please don't be concerned. :)

Sorry but I know nothing about football, always played the gentlemens game of Cricket. Ride safe. :thumb
