Jack Pyke Thermal bottle

Whether hunting, hiking, or walking, a hot or cold drink can be a necessity. Some flasks can be cumbersome, but it’s usually the top-end brands that take the trouble to supply a more specific design, with flasks that are easily stored and don’t require special carrying cases.

I say this because this ergonomically designed flask measures 10.5” in height and is largely 2¾” in diameter, tapering up to the sensibly sized end cap. This allows the flask not only to be easily stored but carried if running in hot weather or jogging when cold. Alternatively, for the hunter or hiker, it means it will slip into a larger pocket and can certainly be kept in the mesh-style side pockets found on small backpacks.

On inspection, it shows a good build quality, with the small screw-on cap having a generous inner synthetic seal, while the outer upper edge has ridging enabling it to be easily gripped by cold or gloved hands.

Constructed from stainless steel, with an outer anti-glare green finish, this robust 500ml thermal bottle will easily keep your beverage as cool or hot as when you put the liquid in, for up to approximately eight hours, although this depends on how many times you open and close it to pour out a drink. It’s worth noting that Jack Pyke can supply thermal mugs should you wish to match up your drinks-ware.
