The most durable hydration system available. These bags are built with the same tough "MSR red" 200-denier Cordura as our DromLites and feature a new high-flow/no-leak bite valve, a low-profile easy-fill/carry handle, and three streamlined shapes that fit most packs.

Durable
Unlike many of the other hydration bags, this one is durable enough to not require being placed in a pack. I use it for kayaking, and place it directly behind the seat. That means no bottles rolling around below deck, and easy access to water.
MSR Hydromedary Bag
Purchased the 3 liter bag for my Mountain Hardwear Fluid 10 Hydration Pack.The tough Cordura material is better than the unprotected vinyl bladders. The bite valve deliver's plenty of flow and does not leak, and the lock is easy to turn on/off.I didn't notice any bad taste from the bladder and it's very easy to clean.Overall a quality,durable bag that should serve me well for year's.Glad I made the purchase,and well worth the money.
seems like good quality
Fits my new Osprey Argon Pack perfectly
Better if lid attached
The bag would be better if the lid were attached so that the risk of losing it when filling is eliminated. Other than that, it is very durable and functions well.
Second time appears to be a charm
My first bag was defective and leaked. I returned it and Altrec replaced it happily (They have great customer service). The second one has be working well for the last couple of years. The Hydromedary seems to be built like a tank, but it's also a bit pricey and that hurts me a bit.
