Our Verdict
The Hydrapak SkyFlask Speed 500ml is an innovative and well-designed handheld water bottle explicitly made for runners. Its standout feature is the ambidextrous soft padded thumb loop, which allows you to hold the bottle securely in either hand without having to grip or squeeze it. The adjustable hand strap lets you cinch it down for a precise fit.
The 500ml capacity provides enough fluid for short runs, while the soft flask material collapses to be easily portable when empty. The leakproof 42mm SpeedFill cap allows for quick refilling on the go.
At only g, the SkyFlask is exceptionally lightweight yet durable. The soft flask conforms comfortably to your hand without excessive bouncing or sloshing of water.
