Review on Nalgene Bottle Carrier Insulated: Keep Your 32 Oz Bottles Cold in Gray by Kenneth Wood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Keeps water ice cold for a long time on a hot day

I bought this to replace one of two that we seem to have lost. Luckily the one I had to sew on to a small carry strap (not the big handle) that broke was lost. Another reviewer said they ordered a second one here and it's not the same as the first and not as well made. I'm pretty sure I ordered our first two when Nalgene first introduced them and directly from them and the one I ordered here in July 2019 is exactly the same and fine. I fill the bottles to the brim with ice and then fill them with water. So at the end of the day, outside, on the go, etc., you often have some ice or at least cool water, depending on how often you open it and drink from it. I've found that two of these (with bottles in them) fit perfectly in the smallest American Tourister backpack without the extra room, like it was made for them, so I often stack them together in one to add an extra layer. Insulation. Of course, it would be even better if the pack was also covered in the same silver foil insulation, but at least it keeps two cold items together in a closed space, making them easy to carry on a hands-free hike. . or open air festivals etc. I don't think it was hung by the strap as one of us, as I mentioned, had the stitching unravel and it was just because it was picked up by the belt and not hung. Bottle of it for any amount of time.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Hard to say
