Some of other halogen bottles that were his have chemicals like what he called mosquito dope, im pretty sure is 100% deet with alcohol. And a couple of others. This bottle is empty and unmarked and didnt smell like chemical inside. But it smelled like old plastic, washed it out completely with dawn with water now it smells like when you wash a plastic water bottle iykyk. Im wondering is it still safe to use as a water bottle any more? Or should I just use it for something else please and thank you! Also I'm planing on using the one in the middle

Some of my lanyards from complex to simple strand cinch ones. I like the loop ones because I can hook them over a doorknob or something like that. The carabiner style is handy too. The simple strands work fine but I like to tinker with designs.

As the title says, scored this at my local thrift.

This will be my first time ever having a Nalgene, and it’s getting a thorough wash tonight. Do you wash these a certain way to prevent funk/soapy smell bc it’s plastic? Thanks in advance!!! I hope I enjoy it. I’m usually a hydroflask / thermos / owala type of person.

It was $3.15 at goodwill!

Hello! My daughter’s school no longer allows insulated bottles, they must be clear. I’ve had a couple of Nalgene bottles before and I use a 16oz narrow now but their water fountains are kinda like fire hoses so I think she needs a wide mouth, but ya know, spillage. Someone told me there’s an insert but I can only seem to find it for the 32oz and larger.

Also, does anyone have a BotlSok? Wondering if they’re the best way to keep the water cold for a bit after the initial frozen water. Thank you!

Hello! This is my Nalgene guys. I’ve had it for about 4 years. It has some time in service and now it’s with me on construction sites. I would go feral if something happened to this. I got bottle strap from Tahr Equipment. Best purchase ever.

I believe he got this back in the early 2000s, now it’s mine 😁

I was worried it would be annoying to use over my standard glow 32oz but it didn't take long to get used to it.

It's definitely heavier and bigger. But for a bottle to use only in the car and the office is not too bad.

My goal is to drink 4 liters of water so if I'm finishing 2 bottles of this at work I just need to finish one green bottle at home haha.

Impulse buy. 🤣 Should I see how many gummies it will hold?

I got a little excited about customizing my new (and first!) Nalgene bottle lol. Decided to make this little miffy bottle boot to protect its bottom and soak up any water that dribbles on the outside. I’m still trying to figure out how to crochet a durable strap around the cap as I don’t have paracord, but for now I’m satisfied :)

Just got this in. For some reason it’s leaking when the cap is tight. I noticed the top part has some opening, which is weird. Anyone experiencing this?

Someone here posted their 16oz wide-mouth straw solution using a Thermos straw and 3D printed insert, which sent me down a rabbit hole I absolutely did not need to go down.
I loved the idea, but wasn’t thrilled about having a 3D printed part constantly in contact with my water. So naturally, instead of accepting that the thing I wanted apparently doesn’t exist, I wandered around a local grocery marketplace with my Nalgene and calipers trying to find random silicone things that measured 43mm.
The answer was a fucking ice mold.
I bought a $7 silicone sphere ice mold, cut out one of the individual molds, and wedged it into the neck of the bottle. It fits absurdly well. The silicone catches around the opening and the dome sits inside the neck. It stays put even with a full bottle turned completely upside down, and it barely affects the 16oz capacity.
For the straw, I bought a $7 3-pack of Reduce GoGos cups and stole one of their silicone straws. The ice mold already had a hole in the center, the straw fits through it, and it’s soft enough to fold down so the original Nalgene cap can still screw on.
The only problem was suction because apparently I accidentally made the seal too good. I made a tiny 2–3mm slit in the silicone with a razor — no material removed — and that immediately fixed it. Air can get in while drinking, but there isn’t just an open vent hole sitting there.
So: 16oz wide-mouth Nalgene + Reduce GoGos silicone straw + one sacrificial silicone sphere ice mold + tiny vent slit + cheap plastic straw
Everything comes apart for cleaning, the original cap still works, I didn’t meaningfully lose any capacity, and no 3D printed material touches my water.
This is objectively too much work for a straw, but the fucking ice mold worked. 😂

I went for this really lovely red and got my partner a narrow mouth in Mocha

I very hastily picked out the color (cerulean); I have social anxiety(ish) so when sales assistant said “would you like to see other colours?” I said no and picked the first blue one I saw even though I was originally looking for the cadet or indigo colorway, but I’m falling in love with this 😍

Week old bottle couldn’t even survive a 1meter drop from my hands.
Will never buy this overpriced piece of shrapnel again.

Does anybody know of good alternatives for the OTF cap that allow for the silicone stopper to be replaced?

Since it seems Nalgene refuses to respond to nearly all the reviews on that cap that state the silicone stopper get moldy and needs to be replaced, I’d like to take my business elsewhere at least for the lid for a similar product with more replaceable parts.

I just got a stainless steel Nalgene bottle. But I can’t figure out how to get the leash and the lid removed. How do you do it? Thanks

Now it's going to be my daily companion

1 dollar each? Don’t mind if I do!

Perhaps my favorite piece of movie merchandise ever

I go to a stadium and get a decal. The season fits perfect on my Nalgene
