I recently got my hands on the HydraPak SkyFlask Speed - Collapsible Handheld Water Bottle, and it has quickly become an indispensable part of my running and hiking gear. This product is an absolute winner and easily earns a full 5-star rating!What immediately impressed me was its incredibly lightweight and ergonomic design. It fits perfectly in my hand, with an adjustable strap that keeps it secure without feeling bulky or cumbersome. The collapsible nature is genius – as you drink, it shrinks, eliminating sloshing and taking up minimal space when empty. This is a huge advantage over rigid bottles, especially on long runs or when packing light.The bite valve delivers water smoothly and efficiently, making hydration on the go effortless. There's no fumbling or awkward tilting; just a quick squeeze and sip. I've used it on several trail runs and long hikes, and it has performed flawlessly every time. It's also super easy to clean, which is a big plus for maintaining hygiene.The durability of the HydraPak material is also noteworthy. It feels tough and resilient, capable of withstanding the rigors of outdoor adventures without any leaks or concerns.For anyone serious about staying hydrated during their outdoor activities, especially runners, the HydraPak SkyFlask Speed is a game-changer. It's comfortable, practical, durable, and makes carrying water a non-issue. This is an investment that truly enhances your outdoor experience. Highly, highly recommend!

Solid grip for thumb holsters, and easy squeeze drinking mechanism. Though, I've found myself re-inflating the bottle during the run to have a better grip.Easy to clean (soaking in soap water then scrub washing), although I do need a small brush to clean the mouthpiece to ensure there's no grime buildup. I use this bottle with Gatorade/Tailwind/Skratch almost exclusively, so there's always the worry of the sugar collecting and gathering with grime and forming that nasty dark gunk we all hate.Perfectly sized for solid, long workouts, 500 mL sometimes requires refills but is otherwise ample for me.After almost 2 months of use, some wear and tear on the grip handle as I've seen some strings peel out, but that's natural with wear and tear so not too discontent with the build.

I've been using this bottle for a couple weeks now and the bottle definitely works for running. The collapsing feature is nice since it prevents the typical air pocket that causes the water to slosh that happens in hard bottles. It does take a bit of getting used to holding something mushy like this after having used hard bottles for years.Although I think this Skyflask functionally works I think there are two parts of the bottle that could be improved.Although the insulation is a nice feature to keep the liquid at temp for longer, I have a slight issue with how its constructed. There is an approximately 5 mm seam in the plastic shell running the length of the bottle under the hand strap where the insulation is compromised (see picture). If I put in water and ice, I can really feel the coldness in my palm which can become painful like holding anything really cold. I avoid putting ice in my other uninsulated hard bottles for this very reason, so I was hoping that this insulation would take care of that issue. I wish there was no seam or the makers at least put it on the other side where the fingers meet so I'm not touching the cold seam constantly. I assume they put it under the strap for design aesthetics. For this reason I don't put ice cold liquids, which is kind of disappointing.Secondly, I wish the strap had a way to get locked in place. Over the course of a run you want to cinch the strap down to keep a tight grip, but the strap will loosen itself over time. There isn't too much slack to begin with anyways so at its loosest I can still maintain an okay grip so its not too bad, just annoying to use.

This soft flask is lightweight, comfortable to hold, and perfect for runs. The insulation helps keep liquids cooler for longer, which is a nice bonus on warm days. The soft design makes it easy to squeeze out every last drop, and it shrinks as you drink, reducing bulk. The adjustable strap fits well and stays secure without feeling restrictive.

This is a major downgrade from the previous designs. The thumb loop itself isn’t bad at all, it’s the main strap. The main strap is hard and abrasive on the skin making it itchy to wear and causes redness. The sides of the Velcro are what is ruining this, it’s way too hard. The snap closure system on the top is worse then my old model one is, the old one gives a satisfying click when closed and dosnt require too much force to close it, the new one takes a solid amount of force without even getting an audible click when secured. I do not like this at all and will be buying the old gen instead.

Bought 2, one for myself and my hubs. Had these for 5 months now. We go on frequent runs outside and these have been absolutely wonderful. They are so easy to strap onto your hand, the size and fit is perfect and they DO not leak. I’ve washed and used these many times and can confirm the taste was only silicon-like the first one or two times. Just soak them and wash and the taste goes away quickly.
