Klean Kanteen Classic 800ml, £15.95
Not a bidon in the traditional sense perhaps, but the Klean Kanteen Classic 800ml is at the front of a revolution in eco-friendly sports bottles. Klean Kanteens are made of stainless steel, minimising plastic production and encouraging you not to simply throw it away: this water bottle should last a lifetime and thankfully it’s easy enough to clean that it will remain looking lovely for that long too! Furthermore, it’s got a generous 800ml capacity.
