SOURCE Product Reviews

Excellent produit et service parfait.

I bought a pair of Gobi walking sandles 14 years ago. The retailer from whom I bought the sandals closed but I recalled him saying ‘as long as the green dot remains visible, the shoes are guaranteed’. The upper sole inserts under foot ( the bits your feet stand on) have worn or fallen off over the years but the sandals remain serviceable and look almost as new. The green dot is still there. I contacted Source directly requesting replacement pads about 3 weeks ago and was quite happy to pay for them plus postage etc... They arrived in the post this morning from Israel. No charge whatsoever. Now that’s what I call service. I know where my next pair will be from.

Super produit !

Très pratique !

I bought this for a trip to Africa and can honestly say it is a great piece of kit. The carrier is tough and rugged. The bladder is well constructed and well protected within the carrier. The carrier maintains the water at a nice temperature even though the outside temp is quite warm. The shoulder straps do not look to be suitable for routine rough usage but will suffice for the occasional carry. And the straps stow away nicely. There is no taste imparted by the bladder and water tastes great even after 24 hours in the carrier.
Overall I would thoroughly recommend the product, this is not a long term usage review but don't see any reason why it would not provide good long term service.

The low profile design is a definite improvement over it’s predecessor. I also like the low maintenance glasslike bladder material. The one issue that I have had with both this product and its predecessor is the tenancy for the bladder to crimp during use at each side seam about two thirds of the way down from the top. This eventually develops into a material failure and a leak. To counter this tenancy I have reinforced the side seams with duct tape.

Génial

This new valve was ordered because the old one was destroyed by teeth of my children. Construction of the new one is perfect. It is easy to press also by child on exact place. If silicon cap is damaged you just close it and there is not any leak of water even there is a press on the reservoire in the bag. Perfect construction of this new version. Easy to use, easy to clean. Super.

I already own SOURCE tactical products, so I had a high expectation of this to withstand my work place. The Ivis Blaze has performed above and beyond in the extreme heat of the Sky Harbor Airport tarmac. Ice stays cold with a ramp temp of 140F for hours. The ice in the bag doesn't melt for an exceptional length of time! The amount of water in the bladder means its able to keep up with my intake over an 8 hour shift with no need to refill and the backpack has shown no signs of wear. A little dirt maybe, but rock solid stitching has held together through the abuse of being in and out of loading aircraft.

My only complaint is not having an option between the bite and storm valves as I much prefer the latter. This product is worth every penny, and frankly the customer service makes it even more so.

Great, efficient service :)

Great product, no odor and no taste of plastic. However, if I try to make a cofee with water from the reservoir it is ''mission impossibil''. You have a ''bite'' valve and I think the Storm valve would be more suitable for taking out the water for various tasks. Anyway, thank you for the product.

Very satisfied with the quality of the products in terms of how good they are for carrying water, they do great, they don’t leave a plasticy taste like other plastic water bottles do, only minor issue I have with them is that the lid can be a bit noisy to drink from when it sucks back in the air after taking a sip, but that isn’t a problem for most applications and the lid can be removed to drink from them too.

All in all a high quality bottle!
Will buy more in the future

there is no plastic flavour. Pack is comfortable. great day pack.

This is a great product! I have have it set up so I can use it on my Gopack, daypack and backpacking pack

used mine for 3.5 years on a daily basis until the upper layer of the foot bed got destroyed. Now trying to order a pair of new gobi sandals.

Unfortunately I cannot order online from this web-site but this won't stop me from getting a new pair of this perfect sandals! :)

Hi all
since years use we the 4L Liquitainer. It's a very handy water bottle/bag/what ever and very helpfull.
Just ordered two again for our motorhome and we hope to by them still in 30 years.......
Cheers Peter

Shocked that this essential item wasn't included with the hydration system in the first place. It's so cheap to manufacture, so why not throw it in to give you an edge over competitors?

This should have been included with my original purchase instead of making me send away for it separately. The shipping was more than the price of the product! Although I prefer Source hydration to other brands, they often include small but essential parts like this with their hydration systems.

I've been using the Source hydration system for years. This is a big improvement over the old-style bags as I can fill the bag without it bulging into my back.

My only complaint is that the quick-release adapters for the tubes are so expensive.

Really nice valve, very handy if you need a stream to fill a bowl of water of something else without the need of pushing the valve all the time.
