A fluid storing and supply device includes two fluid containers supported within outer pouches and a conduit extending from each fluid container through which liquid contained in the containers can be consumed. A harnessing arrangement for harnessing the device to the body of a person which includes straps of predetermined length whereby the pouches can be suspended on a person\s rib cage with one pouch abutting the person\s chest and the other pouch abutting the person\s back. Further straps permit tying of the positioned pouches to the rib cage in a manner that the pouches bear upon the rib cage so that a substantial part of the pressure exerted by the weight of fluid stored in the fluid containers is distributed over the surface area of the rib cage borne upon by the pouches and the harnessing arrangement.

A fluid storing and supply means, which comprises: two fluid storing means of flexible material, each fluid storing means defining an outer pouch defined by two opposing walls and an outer peripheral edge along the edge of said walls, and an inner fluid container suspended from the outer pouch; harnessing means in the form of elongate flexible elements secured to the two outer pouches near the outer peripheral edges thereof, at least one elongate flexible element permitting the outer pouches to be suspended from a person\s shoulders and be disposed on the chest and on the opposite upper back of the person and at least two elongate flexible elements permitting tightening of the outer pouches around the person\s chest and opposite upper back and causing simultaneous outward tensioning of the walls of the outer pouches, causing the walls abutting the person\s body to conform to the shape of said chest and upper back; and an elongate fluid conduit extending from the operative lowest level of each outer pouch when harnessed on a person\s body, being sufficiently long to reach the person\s mouth to permit the consumption of fluid contained within said inner fluid container.
