In reply to probablylost:
I'm currently using a Montanve VP 12 (replacement to a Salomon S Lab 12 which I've used over last few years).
I love the vest styles but find them a bit wanting on size, and also accessible pockets for bigger days out and general faffing with stuff...
My current solution to both carrying a bit more and having more flexibility/accesability is combining the Montane VP 12 with a Montane 3l bum bag (Trailblazer 3) and I'm pretty happy. It allows me to fill the main vest with stuff that I tend not to need/use - emergency kit, spare 'unused' clothes that races might demand etc. Means I rarely take the pack off which reduces faff and innevitable freezing back etc... I find I'm very disinclined while on the move to take the pack off to get at something minor and generally soldier on without which is not always the best thing to do. Having the bum bag gives me 2 side pockets and one main compartment that I use to max out things I want to keep to hand, gloves, buff, glasses, food, compass, maps, nav device etc in combination with the front facing pockets on the main pack.
So far I've been very happy. No bounce or chaffage even on some decently long and winter runs and a lot easier to access things while still moving. The bum bag sits at the front nicely so you can be walking or jogging while accessing things or swizzle it behind and tighten up when not needing access. Also, I found I could esily have z poles on the front of the VP vest and an ice axe simply hooked through the belt of the bum bag without either being in the way of arms or stride when one or other was not in use.
Different approach, not perfect perhaps if you need something properly large (or which will take something large in one go) but so far working for me better than just a bigger sack on my back. Perhaps try the bumbag combo with your existing 15 litre Razor?
