The present invention generally relates to wearable hydration apparatuses. In particular, embodiments of the apparatus are configured to be worn on a forearm of a user and provide hydration to the user via a mouthpiece connected to a bladder in the apparatus that is configured to hold liquid such that the liquid is displaced over the entire shape of the user's forearm. In preferred embodiments, the mouthpiece of the apparatus may be engaged through a biting or other action applied to the mouthpiece via the user's mouth.

1. A hands free hydration apparatus, said apparatus comprising: a wearable portion, comprising a front wall and a rear wall that are sealed on all edges, one or more attachment means, a thumb strap attachment means; anda liquid storage, intake, and dispensing element, comprising a bladder, a fill cap, an uptake valve, a hose, and mouthpiece,wherein said bladder is encased by said wearable portion and is comprised of a single continuously flat front bladder wall and a single continuously flat rear bladder wall that are fused together at a weld seam that defines a first and second compartment,wherein said fill cap is attached to said bladder and extends through an outlet formed in said front wall of said wearable portion to allow for insertion of a fluid into said bladder through said fill cap,wherein said uptake valve is contained within said wearable portion and connected to said bladder and provides for passage of the fluid from said bladder to said hose,wherein said hose is connected to said uptake valve and allows for passage of the fluid from said uptake valve to said mouthpiece, andwherein said mouthpiece extends through said wearable portion proximate to said thumb strap attachment means, receives the fluid from said hose and is configured to allow a user to extract the fluid from said mouthpiece. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said hose is substantially encased by said wearable portion. 3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said uptake valve and said fill cap are separate outlets attached directly to said bladder at two separate locations. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said one or more attachment means consist of hook and loop fasteners. 5. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said thumb strap attachment means is a hook and loop fastener. 6. The apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a pocket formed on said front wall of said wearable portion. 7. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein said pocket is configured with a pocket closing means, selected from the group comprising, one or more hook and loop fasteners, one or more snaps, one or more zippers and one or more buttons. 8. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein at least one of said front wall and said rear wall of said wearable portion comprises a thermal material that encloses said bladder and provides for temperature regulation of said fluid. 9. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said weld seam is configured to compartmentalize the liquid, which results in an even disbursement of fluid throughout the bladder. 10. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said wearable portion is configured to be worn on the forearm of the user. 11. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said fill cap is selected from the group comprising a screw top lid, a snap top lid, a reusable lid or a reusable seal. 12. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said thumb strap attachment means is adjustable. 13. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said one or more attachment means are connected directly to said front wall of said wearable portion. 14. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein all of said front bladder wall is entirely in contact with all of said rear bladder wall when said bladder is empty. 15. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said fill cap is attached to said first compartment and said uptake valve is connected to said second compartment.
