if you don't know me much, one thing you should know is that i HATE, HATE, ABSOLUTELY HATE the taste of tinted water. the metallic twang from a metal bottle, the plastic notes from a plastic bottle is plain blasphemous on my tongue. i would rather suck down a paper cup filled with my own saliva than drink from containers like those. no really. i.can.taste.ick.
when i found out about this glass water bottle encased in a silicone sleeve, i thought it was purrrrfect. no more worries about the nasty aftertaste that permeates my tongue after drinking out of a metallic/ plastic container. and FINALLY, i can bring my filtered water from home to lube up my chords. i love it. now is this the most perfect bottle if you hike, jog, or excercise? probably not...i'm afraid the silicone sleeve can only do so much if the bottle ever falls on the ground. it is glass after all. and it is also a tad heavy too.....
but for pacing about in a carpeted room, this bottle is just purrrrfect.
