Nalgene has long dominated the water bottle market. Seems like everyone who gets thirsty has one of the ubiquitous, blue-lidded and looped bottles. It must be something about the wide mouth, which allows for easy filling and cleaning as well as dry storage for all sorts of backpacking stuff. But the Nalgene’s wide delta is not so good for gulping, especially for sippers on the move. Nalgene drinkers need to be very still, which kind of defies its rugged outdoor appeal. Well, the soggy-necked engineers at Nalgene have developed a nifty lid that forever ends the slow-and-still sipping problems of their plastic bottles. The Easy Sipper – MSRP $3.25 – pops in and out of the mouth of 32-ounce Nalgene bottles and controls flow. It has become one of the most requested products since the company introduced the plastic water bottle in the early 1970s.
