Excellent Bottle Holder, February 1, 2010
This review is from: Maxpedition Bottle Holder (Eyewear)
I use the 10" x 4" Maxpedition Bottle Holder to fit a Guyot Designs Stainless Steel water bottle using the 32 oz. Backpacker model that is nested in a GSI Outdoor Glacier Bottle Cup / Pot - 18fl oz. This combination fits extremely well. It leaves enough room to keep an emergency blanket and compass nested on top of the bottle.
The front pocket holds a signal mirror, duct tape, purification tablets and a Swedish Firesteel Army model.
I bought add ons of a 1.5 inch shoulder strap with a shoulder pad and two Maxpedition Cocoon Pouches which are 2 inches in diameter and 8 inches long. These products make the water bottle a great modular system to add and delete items as necessary based upon your needs.
The breakdown of the Maxpedition Bottle Holder is:
- Main compartment: 10" high x 4" diameter, padded, with drainage grommet
- Frontal: 6" x 3" x 1.5" with elastic retention PALS attachment webbing
- Front and sides Attachments
- D-rings for optional shoulder strap Attachment (I highly recommend the shoulder strap)
- Utilizes Long Malice clips (sold separately)
Overall another great Maxpedition product when you need minimalist supplies for a hike or other outing. Highly recommended.

Great little carrier!, February 2, 2009
I use this, with a small psk, rat-3 knife, and a guyot bottle, as my woods walking kit. Heavy duty and easy to use. My only complaint is that it didn't come with a strap!

Sturdy but hard to use, March 15, 2010
I bought two of these Maxpedition Bottle Holders. They fit a little snug so if you have a cup that your 32 ounce water bottle fits into, it will be extremely hard to get in and out of the bottle holder. The most disappointing thing about it was that the zippers on both of them are really hard to open and close. Maxpedition always us high quality zippers on their gear, but these are awful. The rest of the materials and workmanship is up to Maxpedition's high standards. I would not buy them for everyday use as it would be too frustrating to open and close very often. They would be fine for occasional use such as a bug-out-bag or hurricane/earthquake kit.
