What Everyday Athletes Are Saying

5/5 Reviews from 100s of Kiwis

5/5
"It’s awesome to find a New Zealand-owned running brand that actually delivers on quality. The Vida running vest looks slick and performs even better. Plenty of storage for gels and phone, and it dries fast after a sweaty trail run. Support local – Vida knows runners!"

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services

The VIDA Running Hydration Vest comes with two 500ml BPA-free soft flasks (1L total). The design also makes it bladder compatible, so you can add a hydration bladder (up to 2L) if you prefer. This gives you flexibility depending on your run — balanced flask hydration for shorter distances or bladder use for ultra distances.

Yes — the VIDA Vest is designed for both. Its lightweight, breathable fabrics keep you comfortable on road runs, while the secure fit and multiple storage options make it a reliable choice for trail running, long-distance training, and races.

The vest includes multiple secure pockets for essentials such as your phone, gels, keys, snacks, or a lightweight jacket. Everything stays close, secure, and bounce-free so you can focus on your stride.

Rinse the flasks with warm water after each use. For a deeper clean, use mild soap or a cleaning brush designed for soft flasks. Allow them to dry fully before storing to keep them fresh and ready for your next run.

We offer free NZ shipping on all orders. Vests are dispatched within 24 hours and typically arrive in 2–3 business days (rural deliveries may take a little longer).

The vest can be hand-washed in cold water with mild soap. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying to maintain the quality of the breathable mesh and elastic straps. Always air dry completely before storing.

Every purchase is backed by our 30-day satisfaction guarantee. If the vest doesn’t work for you, simply return it for a full refund or exchange — no questions asked.

Yes — Vida is proudly NZ owned and designed. We build gear for everyday athletes who find purpose in movement, whether it’s your first 5K or your next big challenge.
