I've researched several hydration belts, and water bottle leakage seems to be a common complaint. Does anybody have any comments on leakage?

By contrast, this is excellent. I have three belts of other brands, but for many reasons this is the best performance I get.Thanks...!

No problems with leaks during runs here either, up to a half marathon. The only problem is when I first load up my Nuun. I just squeeze it a little to release the pressure and it's fine. Of course, if I let the bottles sit upside down in the car, that's another story.

This is an excellent belt! I run between 13-15 miles on my long runs and have never experience any leaks. Except for the time I put red bull in bottles. The carbonation plus the bouncing made a mess- mea culpa!

I haven't had any leaks and I run from 6 to 8 miles, so that's alot of movement I would think. Didn't leak at all while running....now I wear mine turned around on my hips so it's slightly harder to pull the 8oz out, and if I squeeze to tight and they're full a little comes out. But I think that's my fault and not the product....I fill them to the rim and they don't leak themselves...hope this helps!

No, I have not experienced any leakage. There was one time I had some leakage, but it was because I didn't screw the top on correctly and got it cross threaded. As long as is the lid screwed on properly and snug, there has been no leakage.

The NEW belts (approx. 2014 - 2015) that do NOT have the "pull up" nipple... they do NOT leak. The ones with the pull up nipple (white) weren't so good and they did leak if doing sprints or got knocked over. The new bottles require you to suck out the liquid ... and they have NO pull nipple on them. Love it!!

It is not normal for the bottle to leak at all. Sometimes water can get trapped in the threads and get squeezed out when the lid is tightened. Make sure its not just that residual water from the threads and then return it.

I haven't had this problem. Have you tried tightening it to see if that helps? I remember at least one other reviewer had the same problem. Once he/she tightened it, it no longer leaked. Hope that helps

It snaps tight and has never opened on me. Now I've noticed that some click closed easier than others, so you'd need to be certain it clicked shut, but they've all been very reliable as far as leaking. The only issue I've ever had is if I don't screw the cap on tight enough, it dribbles but that's on me.

I am using mine in a VW camper van, no leakage. This is the second one I purchased, the first one gave up and only because the fasteners between the water storage tank and the waste tank wore out after about 25 years. I got tired of taping it together for a couple of cycles and purchased a new one...found they improved the fasteners. Maybe this one will last the rest of my life and it is used frequently.

Do you have a good seal on the bottle? It should be very snug. I had one bottle that I had to use one of the rubber adapters with, but most fit perfectly. Pam

I do not live in such a climate so I am unsure. I haven't had a problem with leakage though, I travel alot!!

It works well for me. I've used it a number of times and have not had any issues with leaking.

I only had leaking once, when one of the bands came loose and the top came off. You have to periodically buy new bands so they don't get stretched out, they are cheap so it's not a big deal.

I have not noticed anything like that really. I mean besides sweating like crazy when you're working out. I have never noticed leaking of any sorts though.

Nope, I haven't encountered any trouble with leakage and I've been using these water bottles for years. I throw them in my bag all the time. The black caps have rubber rings on them that block any water from seeping out.

Haven't had any issues with leakage. I have one bottle which was accidentally dropped and minus the dent still works well and no leakage

I use it for yoga classes and mix electrolytes in it and have not had any problems w/leakage. Hope this helps! I LOVE my hydroflask.

I have not tried but with those 2 bottles you will be fine for almost every running distance and the quality of this belt is very good and comfortable.

I wear the pack with the snap in the back so the water bottles are in front (easy to get to). They dont leak - even when running and getting bounced around. Really nice.

I have not had any problems, but for some reason Amazon does not seem to be carrying it any longer. If you go to their web site, i.e. http://aigehydration.com, under contact, you can send an email. I hope they fix any company problems, because I love the water bottle...

I'd agree -- I'd say 3.0 is about 95% leak proof, where the previous version (2.0?) was about 50% leak proof, and totally unreliable if the Kanteen was on its side. This one has been tipped over a batch of times in my briefcase without leaking.
