There are many kinds of bottles. The one that best suits your needs will depend on the type of activity you want to do. Are you looking for the best everyday water bottle?

Kettle accessories
The options for water bottles don't end with choosing a style. There are many accessories to make filling your bottle easier and more personal.
Cap type
There are almost as many cap styles as there are bottle styles. Cap types include:
Straw Lids: There are two types of straw caps that allow you to drink without tipping the bottle. Some have built-in flip-top spouts that fold away when not in use. Others have a hole in which you can put a straw.
Chug Caps: Chug caps typically have a twist-off cap that reveals a round spout, perfect for quick swallowing.
Flip-top: The flip-top uses a flip-out tab that seals the lid shut when not in use.
Slider: The slider cover uses magnets to prevent splashes and spills.
Carry equipment
Ideal for team sports, tailgating, and family camping trips, the multi-cup carry device can help serve refreshment to multiple people at once. There are also slings that allow you to carry your bottle hands-free.
Sticker
Your water bottle can also express your personality. Stickers are a great way to add a little flair and class to your drink holder of choice.
Cleaning equipment
It's important to keep your water bottle clean. Fortunately, there are devices that can help you. The bottle brush is designed to be long enough to scrub the bottom of the tallest bottles. Straw and Lid Cleaner can also help you clean those hard-to-reach places and small crevices.
Rubber boots
Rubber boots fit over the bottom of the bottle to prevent dings, bumps and dings.
