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!!

Hi Kate - well it seems that only us purchasers will accept that this product has a problem with the leaking - krups it seems don't - I've emailed them. I am now about to send my THIRD Circolo back (purchased this time through Co-op online just to make sure it was not a 'faulty batch' that Amazon had in stock. Seems that it was not. Anyhows, going to chose another style now - don't want to because I love the modern style of the Circolo but it seems to me that until Krups acknowledge that there is a problem they won't actually sort it out!

Though this bottle looks great & feels solid, I would not purchase it again, nor would I recommend it. The spout leaks...given I brought mine several years ago and I still have it. I never use it, just can't part with it because I spent $20 on it....LOL So unless you can find out if the makers resolved the leaking from the spout, I would look for something else. Maybe, something of the "camelbak" variations. I've have a basic style water bottle (non-insulated) for years now, best water bottle I ever owned for approx $20 and easy to clean. They do have insulated variations. As for the "kefir" drink. I'm go on a limb and say this should be okay, but don't quote me on this fact..

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.

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���㈇7;�� If you are talking about these specific bottles leaking ,NO..

I've owned a couple of these over the years and never had any leaking issues. Your most prone to issues from the removing and installing the bladder from the pack. Hope this helps.

I've used these bottles for all three of my kids. The only time they've leaked is if the rubber piece on the bottom is not on correctly OR the bottom is on too tight causing the rubber piece to shift. I hope this helps you! =)

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!

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 had mine for over a year now and have never experienced any water leaking into the grill. I have a heavy grill cover for it which does its job of keeping the grill dry. At most when it rains some water gets around the wheels but that dries off pretty quickly. I think it's one of the better investments I have made and am very pleased with it. Good luck.

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

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.

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.

FIRST camelback i've ever had that leaked and it happened the first time i used it! i put it sideways on my front car seat and there was a puddle. quite disappointing. i love the filter but not sure if i trust carrying thing thing around like i have with all my other camelbak bottles. if i do, i'll keep it upright. i contacted camelbak to request a new lid. let's hope this will fix it.

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.

Hi! If you use it with only two bottles in the front or rear the belt, it works perfectly fine! I personaly bought 2 belts over time (since I got slimmer I had to bought a smaller size) and I used it with only 2 bottles on shorter distance. Good Luck.
