The Simple Shop - things we want to sell because we really really like them but we don’t make ourselves.

It started with the Wichard Carbine Hook and now we have found our favourite water bottles, so we’re going to tell you why we recommend them and if you want to sling one in your O Tote then you can now buy one from us here!

As someone who sips water continuously throughout the day and hates being thirsty (or hungry for that matter), I have carried a water bottle for many years. Of course this means I have drank plenty of warm stagnant tasting water and had bottles leak all over my bag and car. So, the hunt for a great water bottle has been on for some time.

Jerry bottles are made from stainless steel and are double wall vacuum insulated meaning your water not only tastes fresh but also stays cool for up to 24 hours, or hot for up to 12 hours.

We love the minimal design. It has a wide mouth so it feels more like you’re drinking from a cup and makes it easy to clean. The simple handle is satisfying to carry and can be clipped to a bag with a hook.

The 550ml is the right size for every day use, whereas the larger 750ml size is perfect for those more adventurous days out when it's harder to refill.

An alternative lid for your Jerry bottle is the Sports Cap, which gives you quick one-handed access to your drink without needing to unscrew. We were initially reluctant to use the plastic sports cap as we are so fond of the utilitarian metal lid but we have actually found ourselves using the bottle far more with it. It's great for when you’re on the go, in a meeting or at a class. We highly recommend adding one to your bottle purchase.

Finally, a little about the good people at Jerry…

Jerry Bottle are using their profits to fund water projects in India and Tanzania with the aim to relieve poverty and protect good health, whilst also campaigning against single use plastic bottle pollution. When you purchase a Jerry bottle you can trace the village whose water project you have helped to fund by entering the coordinates found on the bottom of your bottle into any online map.

Jerry bottles are designed in the UK and made in China.
