If you’re an urban dweller, a student, or a backpacker—basically someone who lugs around a lot of stuff throughout the day—deciding what is worthy to make it out of the house with you can require some tenacity, planning, and resourcefulness. Unfortunately, one of the things that often doesn’t make the cut is a reusable water bottle. Many are (understandably) hard, durable plastic or aluminum, but these take up a lot of space and can be heavy, even without water. With convenience and time, it often seems easiest to just buy a PET bottle on the go.
A new bottle released this past year, the Vapur, is a smart and easy solution to this problem. Termed the ‘anti-bottle,’ the Vapur is a 16 oz, flexible, rollable, foldable bottle. When filled, the tough, (BPA-free) polymer bag-bottle stands upright, and flattens to roll or fold up when empty. The colored bottles (green, blue, pink, and smoke) have a standard pop-top spout, and are conveniently freezer and dishwasher safe. It also comes with a detachable carabiner, for easily attaching to belt loops and backpacks.
