Condor MOLLE Tactical H2O Pouch (Multicam)
Posted by

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.

Buy Liquid Logic Quencher BPA Free Water Bottle with Flip Top Cap (24-Ounce) Now
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

- Use the Frontier Emergency Water Filter System to drink from any bottle, cup or directly from water sources.
- DUE TO CUSTOMER FEEDBACK- THIS ITEM IS NO LONGER BEING MADE WITH EXPANDABLE/BENDABLE STRAW-IT HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH A SOLID STRAW

total junk. Came without one of the straws and wouldnt even pass water. Buy the lifestraw, it is a far superior productRead Best Reviews of Water Filter Straw, Frontier Emergency Water Filter System Here
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.
