The SoftBottle with HyperFlow Cap by Platupus is a revolution in the making. Well- at least a Hydration revolution. There's not a hard bottle out there that's cleaner, greener, and more flexible than a Platypus SoftBottle. Each one comes with Platy's Clean-Taste Guarantee and it's made with zero BPA. The SoftBottle is greener, because it's ultra-reusable and lightweight, it uses less energy and materials. Finally, your SoftBottle defines flexible. It fits in a drink holder, a round pocket, a flat pocket, or any hand. When empty, it rolls up and fits anywhere you want it to fit. Plus, it weighs 80% less than hard hydration bottles. Available with Closure Cap or Platy's new dual-valve HyperFlow Cap.

"Remarkably Lightweight and Convenient" 06/09/13
I got a few of these to try and lighten my pack a bit. Although I knew they'd be lighter than my Nalgene bottles, I didn't realize they'd save as much weight as they do. The 1 liter Platy SoftBottle with HyperFlow cap weighs 25 grams, according to my scale. A 1 liter Nalgene bottle weighs 190 grams on the same scale. The HyperFlow valve is good, but I'd like it to be even a little more free-flowing. I was concerned that the soft nature of the Platy might make it difficult to shove in the outer mesh pockets of my fully loaded pack, but I've had no problems.

"Great secondary bottle for pack!" 11/29/12
My GF uses this softbottle to as a secondary bottle with powdered electrolyte drinks as well as carrying a hydration bladder with water. Used this a couple times a month for a year and have had almost no problems with it.(Just bought another one)Pros:- Perfect size and shape to fit in the side/stretch pockets on most daypacks- Easy-open for filling/mixing and the HyperFlow cap is perfect for drinking without having to remove a lid.- Folds up to nothing when empty.Cons:- It's a little tricky to clean the bottom inside corners (even with a hydration cleaning snake), so it's best to remember to wash it immediately after a hike if there was any liquid with sugars, etc inside.
"Freaking Amazing!" 09/11/12
I have taken this on several outings. It is the best for lightweight travel. After using it i was able to fold it up and stick it in my pocket instead of having to carry it in my hand. Just have to be careful not to tear/ crease it too much because over time it might wear out. But when it does I would just by another one because I love it so much!
"Looks like an IV bag but the kids love them!" 03/21/12
We have four of these, but have gone through a few that have cracked from over use, bottom line is they love them and it makes them drink lots of h2o, and they are easy to carry in backpacks etc. b/c flatten out.
"Most versatile, durbale, leakproof bottle ever made by mankind!" 03/16/11
I absolutely love this water bottle. I've stepped on it, sat on it, and packed it around in my backpack where it probably got smooshed many times yet is has never leaked and shows virtually no signs of wear. Its so convenient and i love that it can just be folded up and stored basically anywhere once its empty! Its so much more versatile that the traditional hard water bottle and i will never go back to them! My wife is so jealous that i had to buy her one for her birthday so she would stop stealing mine! Now we both get to enjoy our Platypus's!
"Absolute best option for small water container in any environment." 09/23/10
I have the 1 Liter Platy SoftBottle, and I use it every single day. This thing is amazing. When empty, you can roll it, fold it, crumple it and shove it just about anywhere.If you need to bring an extra water container in your pack, but think you don't have any room, this is what you need. And if, for some strange reason, you really can't shove it in your pack, it will slide right into your pocket with no problem, and it only weighs about as much as a toothpick, so it won't slow you down. When its full, it still fits into most places a regular water bottle can't. If there is anyplace your full SoftBottle is too big for, just drink a little bit, then squeeze it in there. Its great!
"Great, useful product." 07/13/10
This is a great product. The polyethylene (according to the website) is thick, sturdy, and apparently BPA-free. The HyperFlow cap is great, but takes a little getting used to if you're not familiar with bite valves (read: me).I bought two of the 1L size, one for my friend and one for me. We both think it's the next best thing, not just as a green, environment friendly product, but it's just... so cool.One thing though, it's tall. When stood up, it's higher than two typical cans of soda, so around a foot.
"Much better than older model" 06/15/10
The grip hour-glass figure of this bottle model is much better than the older "Sports" model.And the functionality of the Hyperflow bite-valve is again much better than the pull-top spout of the older model.And overall I think the plastic is a bit softer, more flexible, than the older model.
"These things are so cool!" 05/18/10
I love my platypus soft bottle! The mouth piece is soft and easy to drink out of and with the lock and unlock feature I never spill. The only downfall is that I wish it had some sort of handle, but for the most part it rocks!!
