There's not a hard bottle out there that’s cleaner greener and more flexible than a Platypus SoftBottle. Each one comes with their Clean-Taste Guarantee and it’s made with zero BPA. The SoftBottle is green too because it’s ultra-reusable and lightweight it uses less energy and materials.
Platypus says
For over 20 years, its simple, lightweight and flexible design have made the SoftBottle™ a classic. Still the lightest and most compact bottle we make, the SoftBottle is your source for easy hydration whether tooling around the city, traveling, or hitting the trail.
Our Verdict
We're big fans of Platypus the new 'soft bottles' are more malleable than previous models so they're easier to pack and handle. Although they are described as Soft Bottles they are not the silicon soft that some others are - but they roll up nice and small when empty.
