Big Zip EVO 1.5L Water Bladder

Sip back and relax

Platypus latest invention is perfect for the thirsty hiker, biker or backpacker the Big Zip EVO delivers a significantly higher flow rate than previous Platypus models, meaning you wont be struggling to gulp down enough water after that lung-busting ascent. As with all Platypus reservoirs, youre guaranteed taste-free water, so no more sipping disgusting plastic tasting swill. We particularly love its leak-proof shut off valve, which means you wont catch drips after a drink. The Big Zip EVO is super easy to fill too, with a secure slide lock that ensures no leaks. It also features a high mount, which means you wont have to dig down in your pack to find your reservoir. The semi-rigid centre baffle means you dont end up with a super bulky pouch uncomfortably pressing into your back, instead it sits neatly and comfortably within a pack. And the baffle makes it easy for cleaning and drying too, although thanks to embedded silver-ion technology the reservoir is highly resistant to mould and bacteria.

• When it comes to doing anything active in the great outdoors, from trail running to backpacking, thirst is one of the biggest enemies. Without adequate hydration to fuel your body, you cant perform at your best. And not only that if youre thirsty, youre dehydrated. In the worst-case scenarios, that can become a life-threatening problem.

  Thats why US brand Platypus made it their mission to offer the finest, adventure-ready hydration and water filtration products on the planet. Theyve now been at it for over 20 years, fine-tuning their designs to develop highly effective, durable and taste-free bottles, bladders and filters.

No change in the taste of the water which is great…Great product.
