      Laken thermo bottle. Stainless steel. Keeps liquids cool/hot for ~4 hours. Built like a tank, it has gone flying from my backpack pocket multiple times - once it rolled on the ground for 50 meters when I had a bike accident. Still works after 10 years, using it daily.

      Personally I think you can go on aliexpress and buy any one of dozens of designs. They’re all made in China just white labelled.

      If you like brands, zojirushi is quality. I hate the brand but yeti does have nice features on their bottles. Kleen kanteen also good. But they’re all pretty similar.

        +1 on Zojirushi. They make excellent vacuum bottles and other related household/kitchen items and utensils. I’ve got one of their bottles and a water boiler.

      Contigo are pretty good plastic ones that look a bit nicer. If you want metal, I have a few from Stanley that are great at keeping stuff iced for literal days, but they’ll obviously be heavier. They’re also more expensive too.
