A Unique and Functional Water Bottle Option
I have been using a variety of “soft” water bottles for several years. It all started with me wanting to minimize the volume in my day pack, so the self-reducing size of this bottle was a no brainer. I do treat them a bit more gently than my solid blocky water bottles, but they last for many years and I’ve never had a sudden catastrophic seam failure that soaked my pack. I prefer 2 or 3 half-liter bottles, that way I can make one electrolyte water and the other(s) plain water. I prefer the push-pull tops even though (as has been previously mentioned) they can be hard to open/close. But I consider that to be a feature not a bug b/c it insures the cap is less likely to open on its own inside my pack. Do bigger bottles have their place? Of course, especially for screwing on a water filter, but I’m always going to have a least three of these softies in my rotation. Recommended!

New push/pull caps all leak
I've been using these collapsible water bottles for years only replacing them when I've lost them. They last forever, fit in anything, weigh almost nothing when empty, and I've never had any problems with them, UNTIL... I couldn't get the closure cap bottles locally any more. I bought 3 bottles with push/pull type caps and every one of them leaks terribly. The threading is already warped from trying to close it fully enough to stop it from leaking. It gets all over the inside of my bag and leaked hand filtered water I filled it with during a backpacking trip into my pack and then again all over my tent when I knocked it over accidentally during the night. Do not buy the push/pull caps. It says it all in the name. Buy the "Closure" cap.

Great waterbottles for hiking. Good
Great waterbottles for hiking. Good for freezing 3/4 of the way to keep lunch cold, extra ice water or an emergency compress.

Keep them in the freezer for storage, when not in use. You can boil them as well. Great for the outdoors. Watch out for eukaryotic organisms, though. Cheers.

soft-water bottle
I have been using Platypus water bottles for about 25 yrs. They are so handy - weigh almost nothing, fit in a purse and go flat when empty. Always carry a 1 liter (which I usually use as a hot water bottle plus 2 of the .5 liter bottles for drinking. I need to replace the .5 liter size, but I can't find them in the catalog now. Is that size not made anymore? I really like that size and use it the most, so I hope that it is still available!

I have one of these
I have one of these that’s 15 years old and it has never let me down other than the color starting to get a bit yellow. That said, I bought a new one for my ski pack. I prefer the closure cap, I just feel it’s more secure. Wasn’t sure how I’d feel about the narrow waist, but it actually allows you to hold and drink from the bottle like you would any other bottle. Good bombproof soft bottle that packs down to nothing and should last a long time.
