MaxpeditionBottle Holder

got this for a day kit for walks. it is nice quality but not quite as I expected. the material under the molle straps appears to curl a bit and the Velcro on the top and front pocket doesn't have much use apart from a morale patch? didn't come with a shoulder strap when its that expensive. to get a maxpedition strap that matches, with a pad, would add a lot more cost on to it. the front pocket isn't as useful as you think because when you have a stainless steel water bottle in there the curve of it fills most of the pocket. I probably could have just got a far cheaper version. I was going to score 3 stars but I gave it 4 because the material might stretch over time reducing the curling and I might eventually find a use for the Velcro.

On the plus side - great Maxpedition quality, you won't have to buy another, the front pouch is a good touch, on the minus side, the zip is awkward and fiddly and at £38 a shout, a bit pricey.

Overpriced but excellent bit of kit. Apart from the price the only issue I have is the zip which is a nightmare to open and close. But well made and good quality.

This is an insulated bottle holder and worked well with bottled water, not so well with loose water. The zip can be a little fiddly and I'm not to keen on the Maxpedition fastner system. On the whole it met my expectations and is well made.
