Available in one- or two-gallon capacities, Giant Loop’s Cactus Canteen transports drinking water in a rugged, BPA-free bladder inside of a highly abrasion-resistant shell.
The wide-mouth capped opening is compatible with a variety of water filters, and the dispensing hose has an on/off valve in addition to a universal connector that accepts many popular accessories, such as a showerhead attachment. The outer daisy-chain strap provides additional anchor points, and an adjustable strap near the cap can be used to hang it up or to compress it down into a space-saving roll when empty. MSRP is $79 for the one-gallon-sized Cactus Canteen and $99 for the two-gallon unit.
