Ultrarunners, this is the size you're looking for

I can't speak to it's potency just yet and I hope I never have to, but for those researching, this is the cannister size that most ultrarunners carry in their hydration packs. I ordered it in April 2024 and the expiry date on the cannister received says "1030 EXP 2027". I'm not sure if that's Oct. 30, 2027 or just 2027, but either way, it's 3 year...Read More

Good bear spray!

Good bear spray! Has a longer range (10m) compared to my old expired one (that advertises 6-8m) which is nice for extra safety. Also comes with a holster which is handy. I purchased this in early 2025 and the expiration is good until end of 2028 so basically 4 full years which is great!!

Essential

Never had to use it, but seems like a good quality product. Larger than expected. Returned for the smaller sized one.

Format pratique

Exactement ce que j'avais besoin. Un peu plus gros que je pensais, mais le format reste quand même dans ceux les plus petits disponibles. Capséine 2% ce qui est le double de ce que l'on retrouve habituellement dans ce genre de produit.
