Adaptable and recycled water bottle sling
Most great westerns share that moment when the hero hops off their horse and tentatively scurries down to the watering hole to fill their canteen before slinging it back across their shoulder and heading off into the sunset. Although we’re (thankfully) past the days of relying on a random well for our water, being able to easily carry a decent sized bottle on our modern travels is still something to think about. The Mountain Hydro Sling is designed for just that, and will easily carry up to a 32oz bottle wherever you’re heading. The strap is easily removable with carabiner style clips, and stashes in the front mesh pocket, and it also has velcro loops so it can quickly strap on to a bike if you’re off for a day of pedal-power rather than horsepower.

Topo Designs founders Jedd Rose and Mark Hansen cut their adventuring teeth among the high plains, deep canyons and iconic mountains of Colorado. Growing up, they favoured simple, functional and durable kit – the kind of stuff made by genuine hikers, climbers and mountaineers in basement workshops. But somewhere along the way, as the gear world ballooned into a multi-million-dollar industry, they felt like the kit they were being offered had lost its authentic connection to the real world of outdoor adventure.
In 2008, Jedd and Mark set up Topo Designs to return to those roots. They started out making packs on a single sewing machine in a Fort Collins basement, and rapidly built a reputation for uncomplicated but stylish gear with outdoor-inspired design and urban utility. Today, their products are some of the most durable, versatile and good-looking crossover packs in the business – built for trailheads, urban adventures and globe-trotting travels.
They're also not afraid to tackle some of the gear industry's thornier issues head-on. Topo Designs are meticulous about their sourcing and manufacturing – using recycled fabrics, reducing water and energy usage, and seeking out more environmentally friendly processes and treatments. Several product lines are still made in their home state of Colorado, while their international partner factories conform to the exacting standards set by the Fair Wear Foundation.
