Guide / 01
Measure packaged snacks before relying on a pocket
Energy products and wrappers vary in size. Compare your chosen snack with the 10 × 5cm shoulder-pocket dimensions; fit is not guaranteed for every bar or packet.
Guide / 02
Separate food from your phone
Use the 20 × 13cm zipped chest pocket for a phone that fits, and place a small snack in a separate shoulder pocket. Keep both compartments zipped and avoid overfilling them.
Guide / 03
Plan enough capacity for the distance
This layout is for a phone and small essentials, not a high-volume nutrition pack. For multiple snacks or longer routes, confirm capacity in the listing or choose a larger pack.
Good to know
Questions, answered.
Will a standard energy bar fit in a shoulder pocket?
