Big Idea of The Day: Hydration Vessel
Welcome back!
Three years in the works, the KOR ONE “hydration vessel” is the result of a challenge to “‘reimagine’ the reusable water bottle.” Fashioned by the firm RKS, and using the latest in cutting-edge, eco-friendly materials, the design features a flip-top opening large enough to accommodate ice cubes, as well an interior placket inscribed with a daily mantra. The sleek little bottle (available August 1, check www.korwater.com for locations) can hold up to 750ml, is tapered elliptically for comfort, and has an ergonomic handle for easy carrying. Furthermore, on the eco front, its makers claim that it will reduce an individual’s water-bottle consumption by 200 units annually

September 10th, 2008 at 8:16 pmI’ve tested these bottles for months now, and they’re great! Although not initially designed for athletics/outdoor activities, I’ve used mine at the gym, snowboarding, crosscountry skiing, and snowshoeing and it works perfectly. I think the key to the design is the flip-top lid, which is great for opening the vessel one handed while on a treadmill, driving, biking, etc. And, since it’s hinged, you don’t ever have to worry about losing the cap…a major bonus! Very smart product.
