Interesting, seems like it would eliminate the dreaded punctured and leaking hydration bag.

Welcome, add this to the list of things that make wonder why I didn't think of this.

Welcome! Love the innovation. I've always strayed away from the Nalgene bottles because they are difficult to get out of the packs and drink from while on the move. Can't wait to get to add this to my gear list.

I like bladders for the quick convenience of taking a sip whenever but I hate that all of the brands I’ve tried have eventually leaked so I don’t even bother anymore and moved to smart water bottles since they’re light pretty durable and easier to get in and out of the holders on my pack than the nalgenes. I’m going to have to try one of these though. looks like a pretty neat idea and at a reasonable price. I’d really like to see this with a cap that fits a smart water bottle though, that’d be the perfect solution for me.

I've heard a lot about bladders leaking, but I'll have to say, I've packed a 3l Source bladder all over for about 5 years, smashed elk and deer quarters against it, etc, and never had an issue. I feel if you are going to use a bladder, they are your best bet.
That said, I'm really enthused about getting a Hardside setup that I can switch between my 32 and 48 oz Nalgenes as needed, as that really seems to be the best of both worlds. Glad to see them putting this out.
