Kifaru T1 water bladder?

[Pancho Villa]

Just received my T1 from Kifaru and now realize what everyone loves about these packs. My question though is the water compartment is a little on the small side. I use a 3L water bladder so does everyone use the side pockets or order one of the long pockets?

what kind of bladder are you using? the two i use(4 L dromalite and 3 L camelback antidote) both fit fine and actually have to use the draw cord to help.

and actually come to think of it my other bag has the bladder sleeve cut out and i just use the loop to hand a bladder by

Maybe I'm missing something Tim M. I use a Eberlestock 3L bag. Looking inside the T1 about half way down there's a horizontal bag attached. If that's it I can't see how a full 3L would fit.

Call Aron but it sounds like you might be looking at the chamber pocket. I fit my water bladder, cordage zipties, grab-it and lash kit plus few other "just in case" things in the water compartment with room to spare and that's on a T3

I generally use a 4 liter water bladder with room to spare. The sleeve is sewn into the pack with a draw cord at the top.
What you described sounds like the chamber pocket which hangs a little above the water bladder sleeve.

Sounds like the chamber pocket. I use a 6L dromlite bladder in my T1.
