With all the hypebeasting that goes on in the world I thought more people would be up on Sigg or Klean Kanteens by now.

Sigg.

Yea...something about the plastic lining in them making the water taste plasticy or rubber hose-like I think

But I'm pretty sure the pressure is on them from these Go Green activists to get that fixed asap.

If it hasn't already been fixed.

I got a few of these that I got at the Nike Outlet last year for like $3 each.

And paying $1 every single meal (or even one a day) for a water bottle is just stupid to me.

Unless you're like really thirsty or something.

Buy a Brita filter or go the damn water cooler and fill up that water bottle.

Save money.

you ain't ever lied Cid.

I gotta get up on that kleen Kanteen stuff, Dirty was raving about it earlier in the year. The thing with me is that I try to stay as healthy as possible, Icut out all red meat, cut out bread, eat organic about 60% of the time and that whole jive but who knows if in a couple years they say that all healthy eatingis bad for you too. It's getting real impossible to know how to take care of yourself in this world.

Can we even trust things that say that their USDA organic?

My vices right now are drinking vitamin water, and I guess eating some progresso soup from time to time...
 
I believe the Sigg canteen's were recalled as my co-worker went in to get a replacement.

However, aren't Nalgene bottles BPA Free? At least I could of swore that is what the sticker said when I got mine.

on a side note: May be out of ignorance but I could of swore the amazing part about aluminum is that it was a strong low cost material....those damn bottlescan go for upwards of $20 a pop. My dang bottle was like 8 bucks which I still consider a tad out there in price.
 
why do people get concerned about others drinking water bottles with their self righteous tap water.

i live in ny arguably the best tap int he U.S. and it sucks compared to poland spring / deer park. my friend filled up a poland spring once with tap put it inthe fridge for himself and offered it to me when i was drunk.... tasted disgusting i can tell the difference.

i like bottled water and aint ever gonna stop.

Alright guys we need to find the best waterbottle out there that isn't harmful for your health...

So is there a consensus that Klean Kanteen is the way to go, because even though Naglene and Camelbak have started using the Tritan polymer for thier bottleswhich is BPA free, how long will we have to wait till they tell us it causes a disease...

After reviewing for about half hour I've only seen good stuff from Klean Kanteen...
 
Since my 1st post....I have 3 Kleen Kanteens now

The Sigg post was highlighting that they DO contain BPA(which is bad for you)
 
So dirty what top for the klean kanteen do you suggest and what size do you use. I'll probably only use mine for college, so should I stick with a 27 oz.with the sport cap?

I think society needs to internalize the realities, the consequences of mass consumption of petrochemicals. I understand it's difficult to look past the convenience of plastic, but perhaps the impact of plastic pollution on human health and the environment can motivate a movement towards reducing consumption and demanding better alternatives.

Im def going to watch my plastic use. I guess im going to have to chill on drink for the corner store. haha

Its going to be a while until they stop bottling with plastic, they will lose out on to much money changing up.

W/e happen to causes brains tumors or w/e from back in the day?

ortho-core!!
 
^point is that there is an increasing trend in the amount of autism and developmental disorders in kids these days...

you have to wonder why that is.... if by limiting one's plastic exposure can help my future kid... then I'm going to do it.

it's gonna turn into the 18th century where you'll have to drink beer cause it's the cleanest beverage that won't make you sick (unless you
drink too much)

Water fountains are pretty clean. But I still don't like to drink out of them.

I keep thinking people coulda sneezed on them, especially little kids.

Get a few people to sign a petition or request form and ask for a water cooler. That's what we did at work.

and I can't get a water cooler where I'm at but those are in plastic coolers anyway.
