There's not a hard bottle out there that’s cleaner greener and more flexible than a Platypus SoftBottle. Each one comes with our Clean-Taste Guarantee and it’s made with zero BPA. The SoftBottle is green too because it’s ultra-reusable and lightweight it uses less energy and materials.
Finally your SoftBottle defines flexible. It fits in a drink holder a round pocket a flat pocket or any hand. When empty it rolls up and fits anywhere you want it to fit. Plus it weighs 80% less than hard hydration bottles.
Available with Closure Cap or our new dual-valve HyperFlow Cap.
We're big fans of Platypus the new 'soft bottles' are more malleable than previous models so they're easier to pack and handle. Although they are described as Soft Bottles they are not the silicon soft that some others are - but they roll up nice and small when empty.

Help and advice:
Highly packable: When empty, the SoftBottle easily flattens and rolls up compactly, saving space
Smart design: Bottle narrows at the middle to make it easy to hold
Versatile: Available with either a Closure Cap or a Push-Pull Cap; accepts any threaded Platypus® lid or drink tube kit
Pure Platy experience: The SoftBottle is taste-free, as well as BPA-free, BPS-free, and phthalate-free
I bought 2- 500ml versions recently to replace bulky mineral water bottles. The screw thread on the bottle is compatible with my Sawyer water filter, the shape is easier to pack & when empty they fold up small. I haven't had them long enough to test how durable they are, but they appear to be a quality product. Easy to hold, easy to fill, although it can be quite hard to fill up to the full 500ml.

Perfect for backpacking
The Platypus bottles hold what their reputation promises. They are tiny when rolled together, stand well when filled up, and the water does not have a plastic taste to it at all. It would be nice if the 1 litre version came with an alternative push & pull cap, but you can get these separately. Honestly I wouldn't trade these for any other water bottle.
