Let customers speak for us
Such an easy way to carry liquids on those longer trails and training runs. Fits so easily into the waist belt.
Designed for serious gym performance.
Rated 10/10 for gym use, this bottle delivers a leak-proof seal with zero spills. The wide spout makes it easy to mix and drink pre-workout, creatine, and electrolytes without mess. Its ergonomic design fits perfectly in one hand, and once empty, it collapses small enough to slip into your pocket, making it the ideal training companion from warm-up to finish.
I’ve been using the Softflask at the gym, and it has made staying hydrated incredibly easy and hassle-free. The opening is large enough to add my pre-workout without any mess, and once sealed, it doesn’t leak at all—making it perfect to carry on the way to the gym, even when it’s full.
Drinking from the flask is smooth and effortless, with no spills, and carrying it around during my workout is simple and convenient. Once the water is finished, the bottle becomes soft and compact enough to fit easily into my gym pants, which is a huge plus.
The funky colour stands out, and the bottle size is more than enough for a full gym session. Overall, staying hydrated has never been this practical, comfortable, and stress-free.
Great softflask, best one I've had! Looks even better in person than on the pictures.
Very versatile, not only perfect for running, i also like to use it to mix my preworkout in before a gym session. Would recommend!! Great value for money.
Use them for running, live the colour and the top, really great to use.
One the best water bottles I have ever owned.Not only does it magically make me drink more water. It makes it fun at the same time. It is so convenient I can take water with me on my motorcycle and easily drink without giving my helmet a wash like normal water bottles😂. Worth every cent!
Very Pretty 🤩
Durable, comfortable in the hands when walking or running. Does not leak.
I must buy another one to have a matching set.
Portable and a great option for long runs and marathons. I like the fact that once it's empty, I can easily just fold it and put it in my pocket. The bonus is the fact that the owner is one of the most considerate and kindest souls!
Really like the design and color of the flask.
Frequently Asked Questions About Soft Flask 500ml
Absolutely! The 500ml size with wide mouth (42mm on some models) is specifically designed for easy powder mixing. Just rinse thoroughly after use to prevent crystallization.
42mm (wide mouth): Compatible with filter caps, easier to fill with ice and powders, easier to clean 28mm (standard mouth): More compact valve, lighter weight, still easy to fill with water Both work great—choose based on whether you need filtration compatibility.
The 500ml can fit in larger running belts, but it may create more bulk than a 250ml flask. For belt-based carrying, we generally recommend the 250ml size for better comfort and less bounce.
TPU can handle warm liquids, but we recommend keeping temperatures below 40°C. Not suitable for boiling water.
