Nice water bottle - like Chillys but smaller?

I’m looking for one that’s light and robust like a Chillys or Sipp but smaller - even the small Chillys (260ml I think) is too big for a teenager to shove in a small bag!

Are there any good brands anyone can recommend? More about size than ability to keep water cold actually but it needs to look nice

I got a nice S'well one from TK Max

Thanks @InDubiousBattle do you know how big it is? The smaller size swell one I’ve seen is the same size as the Chillys so still a bit big

I've got the a7 memobottle which fits really well in bags but unfortunately looks like a hip flask. It was the most compact bottle I could find and is very useful. I do tend to announce it's a water bottle though! 🙈

I've just remembered how daft the prices are! I have to keep water on me at all times so it was worth it for me.

I think most of the metal bottles are 260ml at their smallest, below that you'd be looking at plastic ones. The robust metal need to be a certain size. I've looked at KK, Sho and a few others. Have you had a browse in TK Maxx? They tend to do some unusual ones.

Thanks all - yes, will have a look in TK Maxx. I love the look of the memo bottle but can understand why people may think it’s vodka or something!

The S'well bottle is a 260ml one, it's for my 7 year old to take to school as I was sick of replacing plastic Minecraft/cat/unicorn ones when they broke!

Surely anything below 260ml is barely worth carrying around (a can of drink is 330ml, so <260ml is basically a couple of mouthfuls at most)?

I’m not sure of the make but I noticed Sainsburys do ‘handbag’ water bottles I think they are made of glass but are very cool looking and had plenty of different colours. They were very tiny 200ml I think

Smash, I think the make was Smash.

260ml is barely a small glass of water, it barely seems worth carrying for that.

Tk maxx have a nice selection.

It is worth having a small bottle around 200-250z. It's great for when on holiday or a day trip and have a small bag.

Mini-Thermosflasche, 200 ml, niedliche Wasserflasche, vakuumisolierte Edelstahl-Wasserflaschen, auslaufsicher, hält heiß und kalt, für zu Hause, im Freien, auf Reisen Einheitsgröße silber

I got this from Amazon, 200ml

Sometimes I just want a sip of water and don't want to buy a bottle , certainly don't want a soft drink.
It fits in the pocket of my small rucksack

I’ve got 260ml bottles from both Moon bottles and Chilly’s (series 2). The Moon bottle is narrower in width and taller than the Chilly’s, if that makes a difference for fitting the bag space.

Thanks all for the suggestions which I’ll look into Flowers

I agree such a small one is barely worth it but the teenager thinks it is, and far be it from me to try to understand the workings of that mind!
