💧 The water bottle that disappears as you drink! ✈️

Travelling light? Then this is a clever little travel essential.

The SWIFTER Soft Flask holds 500 ml, but unlike a normal bottle, it collapses as you drink — so it takes up less and less space in your backpack.

💧 500 ml each
🎒 2 bottles in the set
🪶 Ultra-lightweight
🔒 Leakproof
♻️ Reusable
🏃 Great for hiking, cycling, running or travelling

Perfect for a day exploring Lamu, going to the beach or hiking somewhere in the world. 🌴
