What is a Handheld Bottle?

A Handheld Bottle is a simple solution for carrying fluid on shorter to medium runs. It features a fabric strap that wraps around your hand, allowing you to relax your grip without dropping the bottle.

Advantages

• Simplicity: No clips, belts, or straps to chafe your body.
• Capacity: Usually holds 300ml - 600ml, perfect for 1-2 hour runs.
• Storage: Most straps have a small pocket for a key, card, or one energy gel.

Disadvantages

• Imbalance: Holding weight in one hand can slightly alter your arm swing. Some runners switch hands periodically.
• Limited Volume: Not enough for very long or unsupported runs.
