Condor MOLLE Tactical H2O Pouch (Multicam)
This is the first time I''ve purchased any Condor equipment and I have to admit this H2O Carrier seems very well made and looks like it''s durable. It is definitely made of a Nylon/Cotton blend (Mil. Spec) and the stitching of the carrier is very precise throughout. I''ve done a little research about Mil. Spec. stitching and this looks like it falls within the standards but I''m not 100% certain. All I can say is that it looks very durable and gives no indication that the carrier will suddenly fall apart at the seams in the near future.
This carrier is well insulated. From the pictures provided by the seller I couldn''t tell if the lid of the carrier was insulated or not. I can now tell you IT IS. The entire section that holds the bottle is insulated. The insulation is about 1/4" thick on lid, sides, and bottom of this section. The front pocket is not insulated however. There is also a grommet on the bottom of the bottle section so excess water can drain out.
I have to admit that this carrier is a slightly bigger than I thought it would be despite the fact that the seller''s dimensions are about right. This EASILY holds my 32oz widemouth Nalgene bottle. There is even a little extra room to hold a Nalgene with the narrow/tall mouth or any other larger bottle. Both zippers seem to be of high quality. They interlock well and form a tight seem.
There is plenty of MOLLE webbing and it does include 2 MOLLE straps to attach it to your backpack or waist belt. On the front of the pocket there is a webbing but it''s made out of the Ny/Co camo fabric that makes up the body of the carrier and not the traditional MOLLE webbing found on the rest of the carrier. The D-rings used to connect a shoulder strap, etc. are made of metal, not that cheap plastic. A nice touch. On the lid of the carrier there is a Velcro strip used to attach a patch of some sort. Also, there is a 1 X 2" piece of webbing stitched to the top of the lid that has a Velcro closure on one side. This would be a perfect place to put your water purification tablets or anything small you want to put in there. Another nice tough.
On a final note, this is the first multicam item I''ve purchased and I think it''s great. I''ve always like the woodland camo pattern but I must admit this multicam looks really cool and I can see how it can work incredibly well in any non-arctic environment.
Like I said, I just got this and haven''t field tested it yet, but that will be taken care of in a few weeks when I hit the trails. As soon as that happens, I will be sure to include an update of this review if there is anything I feel needs to be mentioned. In the meantime, if you have any questions please feel free to ask in a comment.i attached two on my ILBE and it works out pretty well. they seem pretty sturdy and well sewn. condor is a great brand if you want good prices.

threw out all our old Nalgene bottles and replaced with these. Nice design. Fits better in daypack pockets and trips to the gym. Easier to drink out of compared to Nalgene, but a bit akward at times.Would buy again.

I love the flip-top type of water bottle, but this one is no good. After a week and a half, the lid no longer clicks shut but even while it was working there were design flaws. For instance, the lid flips open so it is in front of your eyes while you are drinking (as opposed to the side).Want Liquid Logic Quencher BPA Free Water Bottle with Flip Top Cap (24-Ounce) Discount?
This is a very practical design. The spring loaded cap locks and won''t leak in my briefcase. That''s a real big deal. I liked it so much that bought another one as a back up.Water Filter Straw, Frontier Emergency Water Filter System

I have yet to use this as it''s in my bug out bag. I have used similar products in the past. I would not even review except I wanted to mention that the straw is very stiff and straight. Frankly, I think this is a good thing but the picture shows the straw as curved. The straw and filter are very sturdy and rugged which isn''t obvious from the picture.Want Water Filter Straw, Frontier Emergency Water Filter System Discount?
So I guess we just have to guess how much water it is actually capable of filtering. it shipped fast thoI have yet to use this product, and I hope the world never comes to the point where I do, but after reading in Popular Science that this product technology is #1 for this year, I knew that it was legit. I would couple this with some iodine or chloride tablets, but this could be a life saver if you are in dire straits and need clean water. Great price for the product. At any sports store, I''m sure you would pay 3x the price.Neon Sport Water Bottles (1 dozen)
- 12 Neon Water Bottles Per Order
- 18-oz. bottle with a carrying strap and a pop top. 7 1/2"
Pros:
+The only plus I can give for the bottles is if they are tipped over, they do not leak. They have a ring inside the lid that helps prevent leaking.
+Lid is attached to the bottle so it won''t get lost.
Cons:
-Attached lid makes it harder to run bottle through dishwasher.
-Bottle pull-top is VERY hard to open. Could not pull it out with my teeth, but could pull it out by forcing it with a butter knife.
-Handle is not very durable piece of plastic. It is hooked to the bottle with a tiny metal ring. Most of our handle rings broke off within one day of use. All handles'' metal rings and one other small circle stable to hold it together RUST if the bottle is placed in the dishwasher.
-Even after 1 wash, they have a distinct plastic taste to the water.
-Squirt bottle forces water around the base of the pull top. Some water does come out the center of this spout, but most comes out the neck of the spout. Annoying but still functional.

This is a very nice bag and is sturdy. i bought a heavy yoga mat from another company and it fits in here just fine. its bigger than i thought. but beware that its not wide enough for the extra wide mats. check widths first. overall good product and i am satisfied.Read Best Reviews of Gaiam Tree of Life Yoga Mat Tote Bag Here
Please be aware that although the item description says this bag is 30" wide and will fit yoga mats up to 28" THIS IS INCORRECT. The information packaged with bag says it will fit mats up to 24". The bag sides are slanted upwards toward the top, so the OPENING may be 30", but it will only contain a 24" mat. After re-reading several reviews, Amazon should be sure their description gets changed as several other have had the same problem I did. Had to return.I like the bag. The tree of life embroidery in a lovely shade of green is real pretty. Love that its roomy enough to pack all the essentials. Plenty of space to put my extra long mat plus my regular mat.There''s also room for a block and strap. There is an outside pocket and an inside pocket which is ample to carry my keys,wallet and towel. For some reason I thought the bag would be a bit rigid. The ends of the bag keep folding over. So it doesn''t sit straight up like in the picture shown. If it were a little rigid it would''ve been easier to take the mats in and out of it. Haven''t washed it but when I do I hope it won''t shrink. The magnet clasps are good. However, a zipper would''ve probably enabled the bag to not fold over at the ends. But on the plus side you don''t have to worry about the zipper getting faulty and rendering it useless.Ecobot One 27 oz. Eco-Friendly, BPA Free Stainless Steel Water Bottle

Ready to Fish Soft Sided Tackle Bag Save 35% off
I fish with bait, lures, flies, and the fish I seek out are trout, bass, perch, kokanee salmon, catfish and bluegill. I wanted a tackle bag that would hold everything but my rod, net, and lunch. But with this bag I can still strap the net to the outside of the bag, and slip my lunch and thermos inside so it exceeded my expectations, without carrying a big monster bag. If I break my rod down, I can strap it to the top as well. I also looked at the type of bags that come with nice big Plano style tackle boxes for lures inside, but the boxes always fill the entire bag and they are too big for me. I already have plenty of boxes, prefer to handpick my boxes, and I use a variety of smaller Plano type boxes and fly boxes. Each box is dedicated to different varieties of fish or types of fishing that I can switch out before a trip as I need them. Another reason I do not like to use big tackle boxes, is that just one careless bump or kick from me when its open and my gear is dumped everywhere. I planned to buy a bag in a reasonable size because if I have a bigger one, it is too tempting for me to load too much stuff and then its gets heavy. I fish from both the shore and boat, so I needed a bag I could carry back and forth. I found this one to be very comfortable when its full in size and shape, and the padded strap and handles helps.
It has a padded shoulder strap, and it still leaves my hands free. It also has 2 short handles for carrying by hand. This one is just the right size for me. It has a waterproof nylon interior, and a hard interior bottom to maintain the shape of the bag. The bag is waterproof, whichj does not mean you can fill it with water, it means if you splash it the inside stays dry and the water does not harm the bag. It seems to resist stains and tears very well. It still looks new after heavy use this year.
FEATURES: It came with a bunch of adjustable velcro dividers for the main interior compartment that allow you to lay out the inside any way you like. I used about half of them. It has a clear pocket on the interior lid for papers and electronic devices. The exterior of the same lid has a cable net to hold your coat, gloves, hat, rod tube or a net. The strap D-rings have room to clip items on. It has nice exterior pockets all the way around, the back side is one long mesh pocket that runs down the whole bag. It has a tool pocket one the front that has 3 elastic mini compartments inside, a big area, and another zippered area, exterior bandolier type things, carabiner clips, and a small zippered pocket for your license. One side has a mesh water bottle pocket on the side with a strap, D-rings and a pocket with a velcro lid. The opposite side has a large pocket, that for me fits 8 bottles of bait. It has a comfortable padded shoulder strap that clips onto D-rings, it and the dividers were bundled inside and had to be installed, which takes a few seconds at most.
SIZE: Measures 16 inches long x 12.7 inches wide x 16 x 11.2 inches tall. Very light, it weighs just under 1 pound.
PICS: I added 4 pictures of my bag to this page in addition to the 1 picture Amazon has, so you can see the top and the back of the bag, interior, pockets, the handles and padded shoulder strap. I almost didn''t buy this bag for the previous lack of good pictures here. I posted my pics with the bag empty and also with my gear loaded in it, it was hard to get a realistic feel for the size and capacity with the sellers pic so I hope this helps you figure out if this is the type of bag for you or not.
Everybody has different tastes in fishing gear, this one works great for me and was affordable compared to similar bags.
UPDATE: December 2011. It is now two fishing seasons that I have used this bag. It has proved to be very durable, no problems with zippers, straps, or pockets, no tears. The material still looks new. It has proved very useful, and I am still impressed and glad I bought this bag.One word: Hi-Tech-way-cool-envy-of-all-your-buddies-must-have-fishing-equipment! Waterproof pouch saves your cellphone from untimely demise. Lots of pockets and places to clip for all sorts of gear and snacks and stuff. The interior compartment is fully adjustable, configure the dividers however it suits you. My favorite part of it is the extra super ruggedized bottom: set it down anywhere and don''t worry about it! This bag was clearly designed by honest to goodness anglers! Very pleased. Highly recommended!

This is a really nice tackle bag for the money. I paid $25 here on Amazon for it, and I very rarely buy bags online since they are hard to know what it''s really going to be like when you get it delivered, but thanks to the photos from one of the other reviewers, I decided to take a chance.The construction is of decent quality. It probably won''t last forever, but it is also not shoddy.
There are lots of pockets on the bag. Under the top lid there''s a clear plastic pocket, on the front side there''s a large pocket that when opened has a number of smaller pockets inside (without zippers) and the front pocket''s lid also has a zipper pocket inside, plus a small one on the outside that you can see in the photos. There''s a mesh pocket on one side for a water bottle or can of beer, plus another pocket with a flap over it that I haven''t decided what to use it for. Perhaps beer in that one and water in the mesh pocket. On the other side there''s yet another pocket.
Inside the main compartment you will have 2 large dividers that velcro to the sides horizontally across the bag, and 3 small ones that are about 3" to use for vertical separation between the larger dividiers, or between the edge of the bag and the dividers.
I would buy again for $25 in a heartbeat. I think this is way better than a plastic tote as it is much more comfortable to haul around, and seems every bit as useful.
It does not come with any organizers, so expect to spend a little bit finding ones that fit your needs and the size of the bag. I have two of my own for about $7 each.

This bag is great! ...just what I was looking for to hold all of my microscope accessories, including camera, slide boxes, stain bottles, dissecting tools... I love the flexibility in organizing the interior, not like those hard cases. And the storage capacity...there''s room for everything, even books! The numerous compartments make it extremely easy to access the items you need without unpacking everything first. Amazing low price and yes...very stylish.i like the size its biger than i expected which is kool, it also lets you decide how u want the dividers which is kool, the top opens and has a clear plastic zipper pocket inside the of it perfect for putting your license in and you wont even have to open it to show the DNR, i also put tide charts, you could supplement with any quick info you might wanna have available.the bottom looks buoyant i havent actually tried it yet but it sure looks like it would float wich is great for obvious reasons. comes with 2 carabiners they arnt super strong but they arnt flimsy either, the padded strap is nice and the inside of the pad has grip material which is nice...basically this is a great(soft) tackle box, the only thing i could have asked for is some plastic divider boxes...which you will need!! without them (at least 2) i cant see how you can make it work, who would just throw hooks and riggs in a soft bag to swash around in ya know. so just get those for cheap or findem somewhere...thats what i did...but its not like it advertised that it came with it so i cant hold it against it...for 21$ you cant beat this for a soft tackle boxXLAB Carbon Wing (White) Save 20% off
Quick Release Bike Water Bottle Cage (Black)
Champion Sports Collapsible Water Bottle Carrier
I wanted water bottles that can be squeezed above the athlete''s mouth so they can squirt water into their mouths when they need hydration, without getting germs on the lid of the bottle. I have seen teams use this type of bottles, and all the athletes share them, refill them, and pass them around again. the white bottles with blue lids shown here are NOT squeezable! They are made of a very hard plastic that cannot be squeezed at all. The athlete would need to suck the nozzle of the bottle in order to get any water out of it. I wonder where can I find those squeezable drink bottles!?? These are useless!Were very happy with the product it does not seem flimsy or like it''s ready to break it''s held up very well so far.

Drink Cups & Cage Brackets For Automatic Cage Watering System
- 5 Cups
- 5 Cage Brackets
I''ve been using these drink cups for my small flock of 10-15hens for years. They are AWESOME. I cannot understand why everyone doesn''t use them, and especially backyard flock owners who generally have jobs and lives off the "farm". Refilling waterers every day and cleaning them is a DRAG. These cups provide clean fresh water and rarely need to be washed out--when they do, I just rub them out with a finger. For water supply, I use a home-made plastic rain barrel, raised 3 feet off the ground (cinder blocks work fine), and have a coupling on the faucet end that hooks up to the required 5/16" tubing. It took no time at all to set up. If I had gutters to feed into the barrel, that would be great but I use a hose, and I only have to refill the 50 gal tank 2-3 times a year. My hens always have clean water inside their coop and outside, and the new chicks catch on fast.
But really, $43 is too much for 5 cups and 5 brackets.
These are simple little plastic items with a small metal spring, and can''t cost more than $1-3 to manufacture--well made, but cheap. I get mine from Cutler''s Poultry supply--for $12.60 you get 5 drink cups. For $10 you get 5 brackets. They brackets that are for attaching to a pipe are much cheaper fro some reason. Check out cutler supply dot com. I have no connection to them, but I appreciate an honest family business, making a reasonable profit and not ripping people off. They are helpful on the phone with whatever you need.

I struggled with my hanging waterer until I about cried so I switched to nipple waterers that leaked everywhere.These are fantastic! The chickens see the water, which they love and I almost never clean the system. I hooked them up to a big bucket and it automatically waters them. Very low maintenance. Great Product!
Blackburn Comp Bottle Bicycle Cage
The first issue I encountered with them had less to do with the cages (though certainly an issue they could have prevented with slightly different dimensions) and more to do with the bike itself, a Redline Monocog 29er. With both cages installed, the bottles were allowed to rub up against one another, clanging around during ridding. I promptly uninstalled one cage.
The second issue I had is with whatever the coating is on these cages. After my first short outing I began to notice black marring on the formerly pristinely yellow bottle I was using. It has proven to be difficult to remove.
The third issue is that is simply does not hold a new bottle I purchased for it well at all. A 27oz Klean Kanteen has considerable wiggle side to side due to it''s rounded base and the lack of bracing these cages offer on the sides of the bottle.
The forth and final issue, and why I will ultimately be replacing these cages, is that they are simply too flimsy. After less than 25 miles on the bike, I began to notice that the bottle (a smaller... 20 oz? bottle) was rattling around considerably more than it had before. As it turns out, the allow these cages are made out of is weak enough that through casual riding, largely road in it''s nature, the weight of the full bottle was enough to slowly bend these cages out of shape.

This pouch is exactly what you need if your backpack is either full or you don''t have a special pocket for your bottle.The materials are of excellent quality and seem very durable.
It has a small eye rivet at the bottom for draining in case of spillage.
The inside has a little bit of padding and it may be some kind a thermic lining (don''t know for sure).
It can be attached to any MOLLE type pack, vest or whatever.I bought this to attach my stainless steel water bottle to my MOLLE assault pack, and it works great. It comes with the tac ties ATTACHED to the pouch, so purchasing separate ties is not needed. It also has 5 inch MOLLE webbing across the front for attaching other pouches, as I have done, and it''s a snug fit. (The additional pouch was from Condor, sold here on Amazon for $12) The two of these pouches combined create a bottle bag exactly the same as Maxpedition, only ten bucks cheaper. I''ve got a 26 oz. bottle in mine, but it''ll comfortably fit a 1 liter bottle as well. It''s also nicely lined inside to assist keeping liquids cold or warm. Lightweight yet well-constructed, this pouch is worth the money in my opinion. The only reason I didn''t give it 5 stars was because of a lack of D-rings, which make it even more adaptable as a slingable canteen.
Iron Man 22 Oz Water Bottle
Camelbak Podium Chill Bottle
speaking of the functional aspect, the bottle is easy to squeeze, the "always open, always closed" spout is nice because all you have to do is to squeeze the bottle to get the water out because it''s "always open" and yet the water does not leak through the spout even if you hold the bottle upside down because it''s "always closed" as long as you don''t squeeze the bottle. This feature is something that Polar bottles do not have. This bottle is also easier to clean than Polar bottles because the less contoured design. Overall, I am very satisfied with the switch I made.

I bought one of these bottles to test it out, and love it. I had been using a plain plastic bottle to go cycling with, and had to load up on ice to keep it cold for 30 minutes in the heat. This bottle is FANTASTIC at insulating. I kept track of how "cold" it kept my water while I went out on cycling rides:-95 degrees: put in 4 ice cubes, water was below what i''d consider room temperature for an hour and a half, and was mostly in direct sunlight. Impressive
-70 degrees: put in 3 ice cubes, water was pretty cold even after my 2 and a half hour ride
-80 degrees: put in 4 ice cubes, water remained what i''d call below room temperature for 3 hours
Excellent bottle. Bought another to bring alongI''ve used the bottle and the system works fine however when the bottle is less than full the liquid released contains too much air. I find myself having to squeeze more than once and in the process filling my mouth with more air than liquid and thus burping.

I would not recommend it for a 10-12 year old, but again size is the best determining factor for this purchase.I bought this for my 8 yr old son and did not immediately notice that there is not a clip to hold a score card, so he has to either put it in his pocket or bag. I would recommend a bit larger cart, even for a kid, so that it will have a place for their score card.
