The Wonderful World of Hydro Flask Accessories
Maybe one of the coolest things the Hydro Flask brings to the table is the big world of accessories that accompany them. Everyone has a unique approach to their day, so why not to their water bottle, too? Hydro Flask’s are backed up by a supporting cast of accessories of all flavors. Maybe you want to add a nice straw lid, or just want to put a handle on it. If you want a nifty sleeve you can get ’em in silicone or as a full fledge carrying pouch. Pick and choose from the world of Hydro Flask accessories and you can have a Flask as individual as you are.
In this article, we’ll take a bit of a whirlwind tour of the Hydro Flask accessories available on the market to help you get an idea of the kinds of cool things you can customize your Hydro Flask with. Let’s dive in!
Hydro Flask Lids & Straws, Handles, Sleeves, Stickers & More
We’ve never made any secret of our fondness for the Hydro Flask here at Hydration Anywhere, so it should come as no surprise to say that between everyone involved in this website, we have owned quite a few of them! And along with each Hydro Flask we have a set of accessories which are almost as important as the bottle itself!
Because there are so many different types of accessories available for the Hydro Flask, we’ve split this review up into sub-categories where we’ll take a quick look at a few different examples from each category. We’ll begin with Lids & Straws.
Hydro Flask Lids & Straw Accessories
(UPDATE: For way more on Hydro Flask lids, check out our Easy Guide to Hydro Flask Lids.)
If the stock lid for the Hydro Flask isn’t quite cutting it for you, don’t fret, there are plenty of options. Be careful when selecting a Hydro Flask lid to make sure you are getting the one for the proper type of mouth, that is wide-mouth or narrow/standard-mouth. The distinction will be made clearly in the product name.
One of the most popular types of lid is the Wide Mouth Straw Lid (~$16 on Amazon.com). The Straw Lid completely replaces the regular lid with a pop-up straw that makes access to the contents of your Hydro Flask easy as pie. Much simpler than fiddling with any screw-on lid, the straw lid is practically a must-have for any wide-mouth Hydro Flask.
Another nifty straw option available for the 21-ounce Hydro Flask variety is the AquaGear Filter Straw Cap. This adds an activated coconut carbon filter to your Hydro Flask, which is effective at removing tap water contaminants and chemicals such as chlorine, fluoride, mercury, lead, heavy metals and other potentially unhealthy contaminants. We did a complete article on the AquaGear which you can read here.
If you’re looking for something akin to a straw for your narrow/standard-mouth Hydro Flask, have a look at the Hydro Flask Sport Cap (~$9.99 on Amazon.com). It is definitely not the same as the Straw Lid, but it provides easy access.
One drawback to the Straw Lid is that the straw can be somewhat difficult to clean, especially the upper mouthpiece. The inner straw is detachable, but the mouthpiece can be a bit tough to get completely clean due to the moving parts. Be sure to scrub well!
Should you want an easy access lid but aren’t interested in a straw lid, check out the Wide Mouth Flip Lid (~$4.95 on Amazon.com). Substantially cheaper than the Straw Lid, the Flip Lid is very basic: just a small area which flips open or closed to let whatever is in your Hydro Flask flow in or out.
Hydro Flask Handle Accessories
The simplest form of handle is the classic JugLug (~$8 for 2 on Amazon.com). The JugLug is a pretty simple handle: made of a piece of rubbery-plastic, it is screwed under the lid on the Hydro Flask and provides a handy carrying solution. Very simple, yet very effective, the JugLug is an extremely popular accessory. However, at $8, I find it a little pricey considering it is just a thin piece of plastic. But you do get two of them in each pack, which is handy.
The JugLug is surprisingly durable under normal use, but it will wear out after extended periods, especially if you hold up a full Hydro Flask a lot. JugLug’s can fit 18oz-64oz Hydro Flask’s, or bottles with similar proportions. Having two to a package is either a nice boost if you have multiple bottles that can make use of them, or a bit of a useless bonus if you really only need one. If you really just want a single handle, there is another offering from JugLug that might be more your style.
A personal favorite is the JugLug’s big brother, the JugLug Pivot (~$10 on Amazon.com). While in a way making use of the same basic design of the classic JugLug, the JugLug Pivot is an altogether much more sturdy handle constructed from a solid plastic. It gives you a firm grip on your Hydro Flask, and as the name implies, can pivot around freely. At about $10, it is only marginally more expensive than the much more cheaply constructed classic JugLug.
JugLug tends to have the market pretty well sewn up on most Hydro Flask handles. It is pretty rare to see anyone with any other type of handle out in the wild (at least where I live.) However, there are a few neat alternatives, like this next one.
What if your handle could not only carry your water jug, but maybe even save your life? (Ha!) Well, hopefully it will never have to, but in theory it could. This Paracord Water Bottle Holder (~$17 on Amazon.com) is made from real 550 + 350 paracord. Paracord can be highly useful in an outdoors or survival situation. But even if you never unwind the paracord (which most of us probably won’t,) this is an excellent water bottle handle. It is extremely strudy with minimal motion of the bottle, making it an ideal option for hiking or carrying your bottle for extended periods. Plus, it is hard to get much more durable than paracord!
Also included is a metal ring to fasten it on, and a carabiner for easy attachment to belt buckle, backpacks and more.
Hydro Flask Sleeve Accessories
Sleeves are a neat way to add a bit of individuality to your Hydro Flask by giving it a total make over. Silicone sleeves like the Onoola (~$15 on Amazon.com) are available in a wide variety of sizes and colors. These come with the added benefit of keeping your Hydro Flask pristine under the sleeve, plus making it look neat and unique.
Onoola and a few competitors make a variety of silicone sleeves for Hydro Flasks, but other than that there is not a whole lot in the sleeve department in the way Onoola’s products might make you imagine. Instead, the other type of Hydro Flask sleeve takes us to another offering from JugLug.
