While supplies last, we're giving away a free USGI Canteen with every HPG 1 Qt Bottle Holster we sell. Hill People Gear's Bottle Holster is a really great design, perfect for clipping to a belt, backpack, PALS grid, etc. I have a bunch in stock right now, and a bunch of brand new, American-made, BPA-free USGI canteens that I picked up for a song. It only makes sense to throw a free canteen your way when you buy the HPG 1 Qt Bottle Holster. Find the holsters here on our site: https://5col.com/products/hill-people-gear-1-qt-bottle-holster Canteens are tan or black, and you get whichever color we pull out of the box next. Shipping is also FREE, unless you live outside the US, in which case it's still pretty cheap.
Whoa! Order sent late last night shipping info sent wayyy early this morning. Yall dont sleep much. Thank you for all that you do for the forum sir.
These are sweet! Totally making my umlindi UNSTOPPABLE! The free bottles are super nice and thick. Was not expecting that. Well done 5COL!!!! Thank you.
So in a comparison to the 5col canteens and the one i just got from nalgene id give the edge to the 5col bottles. The nalgene is slightly lighter when full of water. But the nalgene is flimsy feeling. It gives under slight pressure with the hands and id be worried a fall would puncture it. Waranted worry or not water is life. Both have pleasing shapes to the mouth area with no sharp points or areas like the wide mouth nalgene where no matter how hard i try i always spill some out of the corner of my mouth. Both caps seal tight with an overnight of upside down and no leaks. After an overnight both have similar tasting water. No odd flavor noticed. The 5col is light proof so there is no way to see if its full but also no light to help grow fuzzies if you decide to flavor your water. Conclusion: the 5col canteen is my choice.
