CamelBak – From a Paramedic’s Invention to Global Recognition!
The core idea behind CamelBak was born in 1988 during a cycling race in Texas. Michael Eidson was preparing for a hot 100-mile competition and decided to use an IV bag instead of a small water bottle as a hydration reservoir. The bag, equipped with a ready-made tube, fit easily under his cycling jersey, and a clothespin at the end of the tube served as a valve.
For Cycling, Hiking, Trekking, and Professional Use
Today, CamelBak products are very popular among mountain bikers, hikers, as well as rescue and military personnel. The spacious reservoir and easy-to-use drinking valve allow hydration without the need to stop, and CamelBak products offer excellent user comfort.
Hydration Pack or Water Bottle?
Originally known for hydration reservoirs, CamelBak now also makes bottles. Choose based on your preference – a large reservoir can hold up to 3 liters of water, and many packs include holders that make the mouthpiece easily accessible. Still, water bottles have plenty of fans too.
