ORWM ’13: CamelBak debuts low-profile, lift-friendly Bootlegger for winter hydra

Yesterday, I got a sneak preview of the unisex CamelBak Bootlegger, an innovative low profile, lift friendly winter hydration pack designed for skiing and snowboarding. It’s very, very, very cool.

The Bootlegger’s extreme low profile and streamlined hydration pack make it perfect for chairlift access style skiing and snowboarding. A breathable mesh harness and dual sternum straps allow for comfort and a customized fit. With a 50 oz. (1.5L) Antidote™ bladder, the Bootlegger is designed to be worn under an outer layer to use your core body temperature to prevent freezing.

The Bootlegger will hit retail locations in September 2013, just in time for the 2013-2014 ski season. MSRP $55.
