Too short for most commercial bottles.
By Asphalt from San Antonio, TX on 5/29/2008
Pros:
Durable, Retains temperature well
Cons:
.5L bottle is tight fit
Best Uses:
Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds, Day Trips, Good insulation, River Trips, Survival
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments: Standard commercial 0.5L water bottle JUST barely fits. Puts lots of stress on zipper. Material and stitching appear durable. Nice velcro "strap" adjusts for different uses, i.e. belt or pack attachment. Will be testing insulation quality in this summer's extreme heat! Plan to carry cold water while motorcycling through the Texas Hill Country.

Comments: The Water Bottle Parka is way too small to fit most Half Liter Water Bottles. It was a waste of my money. I don't know if it even work, I haven't been able to use it!!

Pros:
Durable, Well insulated
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments: The 1/2 L size is too small for almost all uses. I have to leave the lid off when I insert a decent sized water bottle.
Think if it as rain gear for...anything!

Pros:
Durable, Good Capacity, Good grip
Best Uses:
Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds, Day Trips, River Trips, Survival
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments: This item is essentially a rain-proof, padded cylinder measuring about 3 X 7" inside. You can keep .5L water bottles inside and they are insulated for temperature. Or you can keep cameras, phones, GPS's, or anything you want to keep protected and dry. The attachment is very versatile and secure. I like it better than the more costly 'Padded Cell'.
I would buy this product again and again
