    Not super easy to use for me

    I bought this because after a bladder fail on the Larapinta I’m trying to make the switch to two Nalgene bottles instead.
    Works as intended but I didn’t think about the implications of the design. Unlike drawing water from a bladder, using this with a bottle doesn’t create vaccum. Which means that every time you want to take a swig you need to suck the water all the way up again along the lenght of the hose. I personally find that annoying when I’m already out of breath while hiking because it does take a bit of effort to bring the water up. I also find the hose unnecessarily long for my set up - I’m short so the distance from the side pocket of my pack to my face is too short for the lenght of hose.
    Other than that - good product. Seems robust, lid seals well and no funny taste.

    Hi Joana, thanks for your review. Does your Swig Rig still have the small white valve on the lid? It is there to help keep the bottle vacuumed. Also, the Swig Rig is designed to be trimmed to anyone's needs whether it be the straw for a smaller botle or the hose to fit properly on anyone's pack - so feel free to to cut it shorter! You're welcome to contact us at the store if you have any questions. Glad you're enjoying it otherwise!

    Great kit for Nalgene bottle

    Finally a product that gives drinking tube function to my Nalgene bottles. It works really well in most respects, except for the orange tube strength - mine squished under a hard case and didn’t return to shape. I’ve swapped it out for another tube I had in the cupboard and it’s all good again. Other than that all the fittings like quick release and drinking spout are really good. I’ll keep using it and still recommend it despite the tube issue.

    Hardside wide mouth Nalgene swig rig.

    Great bit of kit for my everyday carry pack hydration needs, easy to refill and clean when required.
    Paired up with 1L or 1.4 L Nalgene wide mouth bottles.
    Highly recommended.

    Mildew in bottle and tubing

    I used my 1.5L Nalgene bottle and swig rig every day on a 30-day Italian walk. About the second week I started to get black dots on the inside of the bottle. About the third week I got a large black dot inside the tube that did not go away. I washed out the bottle and tubing every night but got mildew in both. Quite disappointed as I thought they were mildew resistant.

    Hi Laura,

    Mildew or mould in a bottle is caused by the water supply and cleanliness of your hydration system. Whilst Nalgene are great against mildew, if mildew is in your bottle and hydration system we recomend treating the water you are using as this is likely to be the cause and regular cleaning with a solution such as Miltons. Please reach out to us in the store so we can help solve this problem
