Any favorite hip/waist hydration packs for MTB riding?

If you're losing that much-are your shorts falling off as well?

On hippacks, the belts can loosen as they bounce. And as you drink the water, the pack just gets looser from not bulging out as much. So you have adjust occasionally.

I ended up getting an Oveja Negra hip pack as well @OGBeno. I rode all weekend and like it a lot so far. And it's nice to support a small CO shop instead of amazon. I couldn't justify the current tarrifs to get the cox from alpine threadworks in canada.

Update:

I'm very happy with the unit from amazon, and love the overall concept of a hip pack. My dog and I both get watered on each ride adequately, which I wasn't sure about in the beginning. I ended up trimming the straps to tidy things up a bit.

I like my 3L CamelBak Skyline. It rides low and allows your back to stay cool in the summer.

I never thought I would say this but thinking of getting away from the camelback style pack. I definitely want to ditch the bladder and go stainless Bivo bottle, my current bottle just doesn't fit in the damn yeti frame, I'll likely go their smaller bottle and be good but thinking maybe trying to carry the bottle in a hip pack.
Anyone ever try an Arctos pack? I like the idea of the shoulder strap when it comes to the rough downhill I like to ride and may ditch the bladder, which sucks as it's likely a big chunk of the cost...
Biggest question is can I undo the belt and twist it enough to pull the bottle without full removal. Overall looks to be a nice small pack to store minimal tools and a bottle. Nice phone storage, I'm surprised I haven't destroyed the phone always carrying in in the shorts pocket. This may be worth it for this alone.

there's a company with a similar style of hydration pack that's been going through my feed. Maybe it was these guys, and I like the concept of the shoulder straps to keep the weight centered.
