In fact, recent reports claim that a million plastic bottles are bought worldwide every minute. (Yes, you read that right!) What’s worse: 91 percent of that plastic isn’t recycled.
#1 BlenderBottle Radian
Lumpy shakes, be gone! Style meets performance with this 26 oz. double-wall vacuum-insulated shaker, keeping your recovery shake chilled long after your workout is complete (a total of 24 hours, to be exact). The wide mouth allows for quick and easy protein scooping, while the center-mounted spout makes post-sweat swigs a breeze. The versatile carry loop detaches, too, to keep your keys handy!

#2 S’well Traveler
With its ergonomic, hourglass-shaped design, the Traveler carries a different look from Swell’s classic containers — without sacrificing functionality. The brand’s chill reputation holds true with its triple-walled insulation, keeping your beverage’s perfect temperature from morning to evening commute, while offering a wide mouth and thick rim for easy gulps en route to your next meeting.

#3 Hydro Flask
Quench your thirst without missing a beat. The leakproof sport cap on this guzzler provides for an easy swig mid-sprint without soaking your gym bag post-class. Another noteworthy trait: The bottle’s TempShieldTM insulation kicks condensation to the curb while keeping your bevs colder (24 hours), hotter (12 hours), longer with a lifetime warranty.

#4 DrinKup Smart Bottle
Get connected with your hydration needs! The Smart Bottle recommends, prompts (via a vibrating cap and pushed notifications) and tracks your water intake daily to further support your healthy hydration habits. Better yet: The DrinKup app syncs with Apple Health and Fitbit to adjust your intake needs on harder workout/busier work days.

#7 Nalgene Atlantis
The OG of reliable, affordable bottles just got a tune up. Pioneering with its ‘On-the-Fly’ pop-top lock lid, Nalgene has officially stepped up its game for hassle-free chugs between sets with the Atlantis.
