What’s best about the OTF are the subtle details that convey the spirit of Nalgene design and quality.

Rochester, NY (PRWEB) August 17, 2010

Today, Nalgene unveils the On-the-Fly (OTF) bottle, a versatile addition to the company’s 2010 line. The leak-proof OTF takes its cue from Nalgene’s sporty On-The-Go bottle, but upgrades it with a modern, molded loop-top (with one-handed push-button opening) and locking bail. With the loop top closed, the new, contoured drinking spout is concealed against contamination, and with the bail engaged, the OTF is 100% leak-proof. The OTF is available now at http://www.nalgene-outdoor.com and retails for $12.99. In addition, the OTF debuts Nalgene’s new greener “shrink sleeve” packaging by EarthFirst®, a compostable plastic made from renewable plant resources.

Nalgene has the largest and most diverse line of BPA-Free reusable bottles and containers on the market today, and offers options to satisfy nearly every hydration need from backpacking and cycling to urban “everyday” and family, http://www.nalgenechoice.com.

“What’s best about the OTF are the subtle details that convey the spirit of Nalgene design and quality. Choosing to drink from a re-usable bottle means you interact with it thousands of times. The refined shape of the easy-to-fill drinking spout feels easy on your lips, and soft touch material on the closure offers a comfortable, reassuring grip,” said Tiffany Teaford, product development lead, Nalgene-Outdoor. “Best of all, it’s a leak-proof design that’s fun and easy to use.”

Engineered for Life
A generous drinking spout offers high-flow hydration, is ideal for quick refills at the water fountain and is ultra-easy to clean. Like all of Nalgene’s iconic loop top designs, the OTF can be hung and swung between sips; the locking metal bail prevents the closure from inadvertently opening. Nalgene designers also incorporated an innovative, hidden spring that “pops” the loop top open when the open/shut button is pressed, and a specially designed hinge holds the loop top back for drinking until you snap it closed.

The OTF’s tapered 24oz bottle fits car and jogger cup holders, bike water bottle cages and backpack bottle pockets. Durable and dishwasher-safe, the OTF bottle has molded graduation marks for easy-to-read measuring of liquids.

Seven new vivid colors are available ranging from Roasted Orange and Iguana Green and Glacial Blue (the Clear with the Fire Red or White cap or the Petal with the Beet Red Cap will not be available until Winter).
