When heat hangs heavy in the air like unspoken rage, nothing’s worse than that less than refreshing gulp of warm water. Whether you’re biking in the desert southwest, or hiking the hot and humid trails of Diamond Head Hawaii, the Wooly Mammoth from Hydrapak features PRIMALOFT® branded insulation designed to keep your thirst at bay by keeping your water cold for hours on end.
Woolly Mammoth populations may have disappeared eons ago, but Hydrapak is bringing back the iconic creature in a different form. The new “Wooly Mammoth” bottle from Hydrapak features double wall insulation providing a layer of insulation between liquid and environment. But whoever heard of a Woolly Mammoth without wool? So Hydrapak uses PRIMALOFT® branded insulation, to further insulate the bottle keeping your drinks cold longer.
Beyond the insulation property, the Wooly uses polypropylene, a lighter weight more flexible material, molded at varying thicknesses for strength and flexibility so the bottle is easy to squeeze ensuring no wasted energy when drinking. The insulated plastic bottle is BPA and Phthalate free and as a bonus, dishwasher safe, making for an easy clean up post ride.
The Mammoth’s wide mouth allows ice cubes to easily slide into the bottle and makes for easy cleaning. Even better, the outside of the bottle doesn’t sweat. So when the temperature rises during your beach lounging, your bottle is less likely to slip from your hands when you’re trekking from cabana to cabana. More importantly, it won’t leave water rings on mom’s nice kitchen table.
The Critique…
There’s only two improvements we’d like to see on future iterations of the Wooly. First we’d like to see the addition of a 25 oz size to the lineup. Secondly, while this bottle has a bike friendly design that fits into standard bicycle cages, we’d like to see is the addition of a carrying strap making the bottle easier to carry or clip onto a backpack or purse for other outdoor enthusiasts.
Bottom Line…
Ready to take a stand against lukewarm liquid? The Wooly Mammoth from Hydrapak has got your back.
Manufactured by Hydrapak, the Wooly Mammoth retails for $14.99 and is available in white, blue, and black from Hydrapak.com.
