Polar Thermal Insulated Bottle - 12oz. (Sports Balls) Save $0.04 off

A bit pricey, but ideal for our children. The smaller size is easier to carry, and less weight in the backpack.

The 12 oz bottle is perfect for kids. My son uses his for soccer and my daughter takes one to school every day. Easy to clean too.

WATER BOTTLE POLAR 24oz PATTERN RED

The insulated polar water bottle is the perfect mix of functionality and quality. The water bottle holds a generous amount of water, and is easy to fill up with a wide screw mouth at the top of the bottle. As expected by the name, when you fill the water bottle with ice/water, it stays cold for the majority of either walks or rides. It is a real pleasure to have cool water available when out in the middle of nowhere. I love these bottles and am a big fan.

I first ordered a similar product for $23.99 that turned out to be just the carrier--bottles not included. I sent back the empty carrier and ordered this product. It still was not right!

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!

It''s hard to find water bottles with these pop-up or nipple style caps anymore. I didn''t really need 6 of them, but that''s how many came with the order and the price was good and low.

The bottles are huge. They are very stable with a nice wide bottom and are well-constructed so they sit flat (not true of all water bottles).

Very durable and functional. I only use 4 bottles and put game hockey pucks in the middle slots to use for hockey game warmup. Solid product.

the sports bottles were exactly as promised. The bottles were stiff at first but they have softened with use. the collapsible carriers are especially handy. I would buy again.

These water bottles have been great for playing soccer in the SWLA heat. My girls were so grateful when I got these. The ice melts quickly though. Also, make sure you rinse all of them out before first use. Overall, a great product and a necessary part of my training regiment.

Mueller Water Bottle Wire Carrier

Mueller Bottle Carrier - Wire - Holds 6 Quart Size Bottles - Heavy Duty Steel

When the water bottles are full, the carrier is heavy AND it is hard on the hand because the handle is very narrow and digs into your fingers. Other than that, though, it is great and looks good with the bottles!

The picture as advertised is a bottle carrier and bottles in the carrier! all I got was the carrier no bottles as pictured I find this very shady. and now i am stuck with it. Ed

Sawyer SP114 2-Liter Squeezable Pouch (3-Pack)

The sqeezable pouches are an excellent product for the Sawyer filter. This size is ideal for refilling multible water bottles in one shot, so it also saves time. The thing to be careful about is not to over squeeze the bottle. Just a note about the entire Sawyer squeeze filter system; I have been using a hand pump system for years, and the Sawyer is by far the best most effective water filtration system for the field. The only downside and its not a biggie is if you don''t have a water current to fill the untreated water pouch, you have to move the pouch in the standing water to fill it; like I said, not a biggie. Enjoy!

As a backpacker this is a frustrating product...there is no way to fill it with water in an efficient manner...I much prefer the clunker filters with a hose you can put in a pool and filter from. The intake is a hole about the size of a nickle with no efficient way of pumping water from the stream into that intake hole. You would need to carry an extra container to scoop water which defeats the purpose of an ultralight filter! Even at base camp with a pot, I found it frustrating to fill a 2-lter container. I prefer the Katadyn base camp filter and Katadyn pump style filters when backpacking. Whoever engineered this was not a backpacker!

Matched with the torpedo mount, it certainly does the job very well. But it does remain just a bottle cage.

Nice, light cage. I use this with the front loader ''Torpedo'' system and it works well. Can be fitted anywhere on your frame.

I have used this on my aero bars on my triathlon bike. Overall it is a well built cage, however do not use long water bottles on this cage. It will guarantee to pop off on a bumpy road. Xlab mentions to use a chimp cage for bumpy roads but u can get away with this one if you use the right water bottle.

I bought this with the torpedo mount and it works well. My bottle is easy to get in and out but at the same time it doesnt shift around on the ride. I like that it fills the void between my bars which reduces drag but it also reminds me to drink as i look down at it.

Gerber 31-000701 Bear Grylls Survival Series Ultimate Kit Save 48% off

15-piece survival kit built for hostile environment
Includes Gerber miniature multi-tool for a range of applications
Survival blanket, fire starter, snare wire, fishing and sewing kits, and more
Land to air rescue and SOS instructions
Comes with Bear Grylls'' Priorities of Survival pocket guide

Not a bad kit but you can put one together yourself for a lot cheaper. You may already have a few of the items lying around the house... whistle, compass, matches, lighter, magglass, neeedle, thread, safety pins, mirror, etc. You can pack it all in any type of container metal, plastic, leather, nylon whatever suites your survival needs. I love the emergency blankets. Have you ever used one? The amount of warmth they can provide is absolutely amazing they won''t make it through heavy use for several days but they are fairly durable for how light and flimsy they are. These are a must have in any kit and probably the most useful item for its weight!

I think the wire included is fine. Remember, snare wire has to be rigid to set up so the dental floss won''t work as a previous reviewer suggested. You can expect to snare a very small animal if it came to that anyway. Also, emergency survival kits such as this must be small, light and easy to carry or you won''t take it with you. It''s for emergency situations and not for hard or frequent use. Yeah, you can navigate without a compass but it would make it easier for the novice put it in the kit. I can''t believe that such a useful and inexpensive device is absent from this kit. Some adventurers even carry two for that extra piece of mind. Knowing that you are moving in the right direction when lost is everything... it prevents panic and keeps hope alive! I think it''s also important to understand that kits like this are for "common wilderness survival" situations. If your car slides in a ditch on a remote road in North Dakota while it''s -50*F, the mylar blanket won''t help you. If you subject yourself to extreme conditions such as this (I know, I lived there for 3 years) or desert, ocean and high altitude jaunts, you should have proper specialized training and gear.

Fishing gear in an emergency kit is okay because it''s easy to carry but Your first priority is protection from hypothermia/exposure either by clothing, shelter or fire. Second is rescue, being found, extraction, etc. I don''t think you''ll do much fishing while trying to keep warm at night, and while extracting yourself or being found the next day, as is what happens in most all emergency survival situations. Fishing gear belongs in an extended stay kit or on a planned fishing trip. I know we all think about crash landing near a remote fishing lake and the fish are biting after weeks of not being found... not likely. I was lost in the woods once and I''ll take a compass over a fish hook any day! I''m not against fish hooks and sinkers but you would have to be lost for many days and have established shelter and water source before you think about wetting a hook. I think lots of new, young wilderness adventurers are being led to believe that a few fish hooks and sinkers will save their life when the truth is, they will rarely or never be used. The items in your kit should be useful and help direct your thoughts in case of panic. Everything in your kit should help you achieve something if you pull out a whistle and blow it, someone may hear! Pull out a lead sinker and, well... you just pulled out a lead sinker.

I also like the signaling and survival instructions. Not only is the information valuable to the novice survivalist but this literature will also help keep you focused and strangely enough, could be comforting while spending the night alone and provide a boost of confidence. A fish hook won''t do that. The material the instructions are printed on could be used to catch water, cover wounds and who knows what else.

If for some strange reason catching a fish does become a priority make a fish trap instead fish swim in and they can''t swim out. If you''re lost for days you''ll have the time to make it and staying busy helps keep the mind on track. By this time you should have a nice camp set up and sportin'' a great woodsman type beard. While the trap does its work you can prepare firewood or signal for help. PLEASE Help Me Spread The Message... Shelter and Rescue First! The life you save may be your own. Good luck!

Update: 8 June 2011

Price has come down to the low $30''s... a lot better than $40 something! It seems like prices on most Bear items are falling. I guess the hysteria is starting to subside.

Buy Gerber 31-000701 Bear Grylls Survival Series Ultimate Kit Now

I spend a lot of time in the woods and I enjoy wating Bear Grylls show on TV so this seemed like a great gift idea for me. My wife picked it up for my birthday at a local store. I am less then impressed to say the least. I currently have my own survival kit that I put together for well under 30 bucks on Amazon years ago, so I had high hopes for something that costs around 40 bucks. I al also a huge Gerber tool fan. I love their blades and carry their multi-tool everyday.

Boy was I dissappointed.....

Cons:

poor quality on most items. The snare cord would snap under little pressure.

The gerber multi-tool was tiny and seemed cheap.

Matches came broken

NO COMPASS!

hooks were too bendable cheap!

Pros:

nice size

Bag to hold everything

paracord seems decent

Flint and striker worked well

I am sad that this product did not meet my expectations. I really wanted it to be a good product. This will not replace my ghetto kit in my gallon zip-lock bag. My kit cost less and is of much higher quality. This kit has been put in the glove box or my car and will stay there as a back-up. I would not trust this in a real survival situation.

Read Best Reviews of Gerber 31-000701 Bear Grylls Survival Series Ultimate Kit Here

First off, I would like to mention that I am a huge Bear Grylls fan.

I have purchased this pack as well as the fire-starter, folding sheath knife and ultimate utility tool.

This kit looks very impressive at first, however upon opening the pack you will soon realize that all the items are very small and impractical. The snare wire is barely longer than the average hands length. The mini-utility tool has very stiff components and only consists of a nail file, a knife and two very small and ineffective screw drivers. The whistle inside the pack looks like something out of a dollar store (the whistle on the outside attached to the bag is better). The LED light is purely plastic and inexpensive. It almost looks like a child''s toy.

The only two items that would be semi-difficult to find on your own would be the hand saw and mini fishing kit. The rest of the items could be purchased separately for a fraction of the cost of this pack.

The fire-starter and folding sheath knife are good (different Bear Grylls endorsed products). Those are keepers. The utility tool''s wire cutters exploded during there first use so you should be weary about purchasing that as well.

Take some time and visit some local stores. Even Wal-mart sells the majority of items in this bag. Make your own kit.

The only thing that Bear Grylls is attached to in this pack is the nylon bag that all the stuff is in. The rest is just cheap parts.

Save your money.

Be safe out there.

I bought this kit because I am fan of Bear Grylls. I am an avid outdoorsman and former US Army officer and enlisted soldier. My son and I tested the kit and we were very disappointed in the poor quality of the kit. DO NOT buy this kit if you are serious about using it in a real life or death situation. It could cost you your life. Put together a kit of your own with good quality materials. It will be more expensive, but will be worth the money and effort.

The description of this survival kit says that it is for "hostile environments." This is a joke. This kit is more like a toy survival kit. You will not survive in any environment with this kit. It does not have the basic necessary items and half of the products did not work or were not large enough to be useful.

Here is what is in the kit and my opinion of it:

Nylon pouch: too small, once you take the kit apart it is difficult to put it back in. The pouch should be larger.

Multi-tool This is the smallest and cheapest multi-tool I have ever seen. It is too small to be used for any survival purpose, aside from cutting fishing line. Very poor quality. Instead, buy a decent Gerber 01471 Suspension Butterfly Opening Multi-Plier, with Sheath or similar multi-tool.

Miniature light my light did not work, I have never gotten it to work. Instead buy a decent, small, waterproof flashlight or a manually charging light.

Hand saw too small to use for any purpose

Signaling mirror Small, not very reflective. More like shiny tin

Survival blanket Very poor quality. My blanket tore in half when we tried to open it and test it out

Fire starter The handle kept falling off every time I tried to strike it. I could not generate many sparks and it was difficult to start a fire. It was too small. In the Bear Grylls TV show, he uses a high quality Swedish Firesteel Army Model or an old fashioned Genuine Issue Magnesium Survival Firestarter. These are much better for starting fires.

Snare wire As described. Cheap metal. I did not try to snare anything with it.

Waterproof matches as described. You only get a few in the kit. You need more matches and a lighter.

Cotton ball fire tinder, snare wire, emergency cord, waxed thread, fishing kit, sewing kit These are all as described. You get a very small amount of each item. You need more than a few hooks and a few feet of fishing wire.

Pocket survival guide, and rescue instructions Very general. You should invest in a SAS Survival Handbook: The ultimate guide to surviving anywhere

I would not buy this product again or recommend it to anyone serious about buying a survival kit.

Ok, so in being honest I was once a fan of Bear''s. However after watching the show for a season or so I can tell you, if you do what he does YOU WILL DIE. This kit sums up the overall experience, a whole lot of filler, nothing of use. There are some good features to this, a signal mirror is excellent, the space blanket is a fantastic life saverhowever I can tell you from personal experiencebuy the one at the sporting good store that is a bit more heavy duty. In the event you actually need it -and I haveyou will be glad that you skipped on the one with a thickness similar to tissue paper. Like others have said, the multi-tool is great, but a good multi-tool is something that I feel everyone should own, not a chinese made knock-off. I find it nearly laughable to think that a COMPASS was not included in this kit. A whistle is always a good thing to have, plastic is the "warmest". As one other review stateddump the fishing line and hooks, I have been in the back country along the Sierra''s for nearly ten years and I can tell you on one finger how many times I found fish.

To sum up and in all honesty, Bear was paid to endorse this, I highly doubt he created this. Do your own research on what is needed in a survival kit for your particular area and make your own. The knowledge that you gain will save your own life.

Nike Hydration Pack (Black/Anthracite/White)

I''ve had mine a few months ago, I''ve taken it on runs up to 20 miles. In 2 days I''ll be wearing it in a marathon.

It holds a decent capacity of fluid for a long run, and I''ve been able to cram a pack of skittles and 3 gu packs in its pocket. The bottle positioning is great and lets you grab it and return it to the holder without messing up your stride at all.

A major complaint is that it does move around a good bit if you don''t make it very tight. Its constant motion has chafed my lower back enough to where I have callouses there now. Even with that I still continue to wear it, so that should say something about it.

I just love this. I use it all the time for either walking, running or bike riding. There are two small zipper sections that my i-pod fits in, a single house key and my samsung cell phone. Bottle is of great quality but when it goes or if I loose it, it can easily be replaced because the holder is a standard water bottle size.

Geigerrig G1 1200 Hydration Pack Save 9% off

I bought the Geigerrig 1200 after buying a Camelbak Mule NV. I got the 1200 for a really good price so I decided to pull the trigger on it and order it. It came folded flat and ready to rock. I put it to the test with a 10 mile hike in the woods and a whole day of swimming/hiking trails and mangroves.

The pack is very sturdy and took all my survival gear and clothing for the weekend. Its volume and compression are easily regulated by multiple straps on the side and on the back of it. I strapped clothing layers that I wanted readily accessible within the elastic straps on the back (one thing that the 1200 has but the other Rigs don''t have I believe). The cargo volume is huge! This pack can carry a lot more stuff than it seems!

The shoulder straps are easy on the shoulders/traps and don''t dig in hard. They are easily adjusted. So are the chest and hip straps. I added some carabiners on the back of the pack to carry extra stuff like my Vibrams and my Glo Toob lithium as a night time beacon.

The hydration engine is simply awesome and really easy to use. First, the bladder is 3L. I usually fill my Camelbak with 2/3 water and 1/3 ice so I did the same here. No problem. It fits nicely into the bladder compartment and there is even an elastic compartment to put it in in case you want to reduce bladder-swinging. The clip-on valves are easy and intuitive to use. The water valve may leak a few drops during plugging operations but that is normal. Once full and in place the bladder just needs a few pumps from the hand-pump and voila: pressurized water flow! So easy to drink I drank way too much. Really useful too when you need to wash the blood of splattered mosquitoes off your arms! The bladder is also really easy to wash: just reach for the bottom and pull it inside out. It is sturdy, tough, and won''t rip. Wash it with running water and mild soap, rinse, then dry it with paper towels while you''re at it. Done. No need to hang dry.

During the 10 mile hike I decided to run for a quick mile with a full pack to see how it would handle. For a 1200 cu in, the pack balanced nicely and I did not feel any discomfort or anything that made me want to stop. I am confident that I could run longer distances with it, with less load in the pack.

Geigerrig is putting out quality products and I am very impressed with this 1200 pack. I am looking forward to any new lines of products they will release.

Let me start off by saying it is sad a big company like camelbak never thought of this but great the little guys could. I ordered this product after my camelbak recently burst a bladder. The idea of not feeling like I needed to suck a golf ball through a garden hose was nice as well as being able to share a bit of hydration with my pooch. I was very pleased with the product. The pack is sturdy with tons of straps to shrink it down when not full and great if you are on a motorcycle with it. The pump works perfectly and puts out water just right not slow and not to high of a volume. After hours spent trying to clean and dry my camelbak I was so happy i can turn this inside out wash it and leave it to dry. No extra brushes, dryers, hangers etc... It even says its top rack dishwasher safe (I dont see a need to risk this since my dishwasher regularly destroys plastic wear).

On top of all of this I was a little concerned about putting anything other than water in the pack since it has a valve and pumps and such. On this note I visited the website for Geigerrig and looked for a customer support email. I found the page but was a little off put by the fact the emails listed were the CEO, COO and production manager. I figured "oh this isnt going to work" but emailed the CEO on a Saturday evening anyway. Sunday morning I see an email from the CEO answering my question and letting me know "go ahead and put sports drinks in, just wash it well afterwards"... Seriously, the CEO emailed me on a Sunday morning, with a good answer and a thank you for purchasing their product.

I have written quite a few reviews on amazon when I am impressed by a product, customer service or not satisfied. I am so pleasantly surprised by every aspact of this product and company I cant say enough. Buy this or one of their other packs you will be very pleased.

Buy Geigerrig G1 1200 Hydration Pack Now

I am a Geigerrig man from now on. As I have been made aware, this pack is getting rave reviews in such outdoor sites such as Backpacker.com by authors and users alike as well as garner awards like 3M''s In-New-vation award for 2011. You might not think that means anything, but you''ll know what''s so cool about it as soon as I let you borrow mine. Haha.

The quality of the pack is put together with such excellent craftsmanship, I see no flaw. It carries good load (1200 cu. in. is giant for a hydration pack), with really good compression on the both sides and both for main compartment and the smaller front pocket so you''re able to really squeeze your stuff in place. It''s very solid and stable on your back when packed right, which I''m sure you got a handle on.

Has great cushioning on the back and breathes real well. The the pressurized hydration bladder works perfectly, as the product description states; NEVER SUCK AGAIN. You won''t appreciate that until you''re actually drinking from it, you can even do things like wash away dirt from any part of your body. Spraying also means you can share your drink without fear of cooties. The bite valve is the most comfortable I''ve felt yet. I like the 45 degree angle to it. And that''s not even all, you can even add an inline filter (sold separately for something like 20-30 bucks, through their site)that enables you pull water straight up from streams and remove 99% of giarda and other contaminants. COME ON with the COME ON!!!!

For me that''s what really sold it, a hydration pack that can actually save you from a dire situation or stress. Man.. that''s going far and beyond for ANY hydration backpacks.

When you''re out trekking a trail or camping where you''re out on your own, every little useful feature you can pack with you is GREATLY appreciated! It can expand big enough to carry gear or to day hike, or you can keep it compact enough to ride around a bike with.. either way, it''s just as comfortable. There''s just something badass about this backpack. It''s like an action on the go grab backpack... if that makes any sense.

EDIT: The support you get with this product is unseen in other companies. They totally have heart and believe in their products. That''s nice to see nowadays! I contacted people responsible for this pack, and they are very nice and generous!

It''s important to note that they have lifetime warranty backing their bags and bladders. 2 years on the bags themselves and lifetime on the bladder. At any event of leakage problems, they got your back. This is great considering the engine retails about 50 bucks, and don''t even think about loading this pack with a different bladder, you''d do yourself a disservice.

If you''re ever in a market for a good hydration pack or looking to replace one, please consider the GEIGERRIG name! You won''t regret it.

I was skeptical at first but after a few months with it and taking it skiing a couple of times i was sold. The quality of the bag is really nice and there is no funny smell or taste from the reservoir. You can pretty much take everything apart to clean. It is on the otherhand quite pricey. I got it for half off here when it was on sale, so wait for a deal then jump on it, you wont be sorry.

Want Geigerrig G1 1200 Hydration Pack Discount?

I was looking for a good day pack to take on my adventures, after some extensive looking I stumbled upon the Geigerrig. Read the reviews and decided to take the leap, and what a great leap it was, awesome pack, plenty of room (1-2 days worth of stuff) but what really made me fall in love was the hydration system inside. After you have been climbing mountains and scolding rocks all day, the last thing you would want to do is fight for water thru one of those tubes, I have a camelback, (maybe mine was defective) but it was almost like sucking jello thru a straw, but the Geigerrig solved that problem with the compression system. I was a little concerned due to the fact that it requires pumping, and i thought well when I''m down to the last little bit of water I''ll have to pump this thing for an hour to build up the compression, but to my surprise there are 2 sacks, one for the water and one for the compression so it requires approximately the same amount of pressure no matter if it is full or nearly empty. Well played Geigerrig... well played.
