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!!

I've had mine since November and have never had a leakage problem. Could be faulty?? or over tightened?

I bought the water bottles for my fiance and asked him if he's had any issues like this. He said he hasn't. You must have got a defective one with a hole or something b/c leaking isn't happening at all with ours. Good luck!

Other than the water left over in the grooves from either rinsing or over filling it and then closing it I haven't had a problem with it leaking. It could also be the rubber attachment, I took nine off right when I got it because it was irritating me.

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.

Yes, have. I bought a set of 3 and the one bottle leaks terribly from the spay nozzle and from the trigger. I feel there should be some type of small o-ring or something in these areas to prevent this. It becomes a real nuisance.

So far, I have had no issues with it leaking. Like you, the bottle is sideways and getting moved around a lot in my backpack when I take it to work.

No, i have had it for a while and it is usually in the car rolling around in the back. I haven't seen any leaks or damage to the bottle. It is the best thing I have bought for water.

It's not going to work in the water, of course. Since I have carried in rainy day for few times, I haven't experienced any leaking so far. However, you may ask others, too. They could have different opinions. At least it has worked for me.

There is a closed durable plastic "U" design, that moves up and down. I use this on my an clip to my backpack. If you need pics let me know. If you have a "D" ring (rock climber stuff) you can attach it. But by far this is the best water bottle I have owned, no leaking whatsoever! Need pics let me know.

Sorry for the long delay. I guess I'm confused. Mine doesn't leak. Perhaps it's related to how high you've filled the particular water vessel? I only use 2 liter soda bottles and I don't notice any leakage

Thank you! many times... I will seek out the Ziploc pump + bags at your (and others)solid recomendations. It is gratifying to know I am deffinately not the only "leaky" bag person.

I've had mine several months now and use it almost daily. Never had any problem with it leaking.

I have not had any problem leaking or otherwise. The Brondell S1000-EW has been a very good product that I would buy again and recommend to others.

If you are talking about these specific bottles leaking ,NO.. I have bought three for my household alone and neither one of them leak and I ordered three one goes with me on the road,one is just my work out bottle and the other my husband uses for work and again absolutely No problems with any of them. Then my brother in law seen me with mine and ordered 2 one for him and the other for my sister and they love them and also purchased from the same seller!! Maybe the one you had purchased was just by accident was already damaged somehow.. So there are 5 of these bottles in my family and we love,love,love them!! Give it a second chance you will get a good one! There awesome&#128077;&#128077;&#128077;&#128077;&#128077;&#128077;

You are not alone. I have the exact same issue. I too am on my second one and even that leaks now. It's annoying.

Glen, my initial thought was no because the pouches are sort of oval-shaped to fit the bottles that come with the belt. However, I just tried it and it worked. I was easily able to slide a standard 16 oz water bottle in and out of the pouch. My only question is would my elbows be hitting it if I tried to run with it that way. The 16 oz water bottle stuck out considerably higher than the 8 oz bottle that comes with the belt. I added two pictures to my review to show you the 16 oz water bottle in one holster as compared to the fitletic bottle in the other holster.
