Universal Water Bottle Carrier Sling with Adjustable Shoulder Strap for Walking Short Hiking, Water Bottle Holder for 16-64 oz Wide Mouth Bottles (Exclude Water Bottle)

This my favorite bottle carrier for the short hikes that I take. It fits my 2 3/4 inch diameter bottles perfectly. I keep it in my car and insert a bottle at the beginning of the hike. It is adjustable for different length bottles and the horizontal elastic bands look like they will fit bottles up to 3 3/4 inch diameter. Since my bottles are all the same diameter and length, my wife sewed seams across the straps so I can insert the bottle faster. I thought of that idea after using it for two years, so bottle insertion was not a problem.

I always carry a water bottle with me. I have large (32 oz) bottles that fit well in my car’s cup slots. I bought this sling so I can carry a bottle when hiking or walking. My camera backpack does not have a pocket for a bottle, the tripod pocket serves for both uses. The bottles fit snug. At first, I didn’t think the bottle would fit, but with a little bit of stretching they fit (3-inch diameter). The snugness keeps the bottle tight in the sling, knowing the bottle will not fall out when on the move. One good point is when it is not in use it folds and stores flat, taking up very little space. The one improvement I would suggest is a small phone-carry case that would be attached to the sling. Very nice sling for hiking or walking keeping hands free.

The strap has plenty of length for my 5’5” height (with a lot to spare) and it holds the bottle very securely. I love being able to keep water with me hands free, crossbody, and that this weighs next to nothing. My only complaint is how hard it was to get the bands over my LARQ PureVis™2, 34oz Bottle. I didn’t think they would go on, but they eventually did. I would like to switch between different holders, but the struggle getting this one on is real! I thought about exchanging it for the larger one but I think this will fit a standard water bottle better, which I may also want to use it for while traveling. Hopefully it’ll stretch a little.

This works great for the 10 ounce Nalgene bottles we needed for our trip to Italy. (Metal and larger bottles are not allowed at many sites.) I like that you can carry the water bottle behind you, across your back, with this strap. Comfortable while walking.

If you could leave this on a dedicated waterbottle, or if you have nimble strong fingers to take it off and on, this carrier might work. The carrying strap is not removable. I do not want to take my water bottle to the gym with a long strap on it. It would be cumbersome to trade out different sizes of waterbottles too. Seemed to fit well, once it was on. Directions for putting it on the bottle were not too clear. Returned.

I'm horrible about losing waterbottles. I keep setting them down and fiegetting to pick them back up and I've lost several over the years. This strap has solved the issue perfectly! It fits my 32 oz wide mouth nalgene perfectly! It was a little hard to get on at first but eventually as I took it on and off to wash it it loosened up enough that it slips on easily without the waterbottle falling off. I even sewed a little pocket onto the front so that I can keep some electrolyte packets and a charger on there.

The straps slide around when I am walking and my water bottle slides out and falls to the ground. This has happened several times over the past few weeks and it happens no matter how much time I spend adjusting the straps and checking on them while I am walking. The steel water bottle makes a terrible sound when it crashes to the pavement. Now I have to shop for a replacement carrier. I will probably buy another neoprene holder. The last one I owned lasted three years.

I am happy to stumble onto a product like this because it never occurred to me to look for something like this. It frees up my hands and allows me to easily bring a water bottle with me in my outings. The stretchy bands for the bottle fit perfectly and having two of them (adjustable height) makes it stable for different sizes of bottle. I've been very happy using this!
