Outsiders love gear. The higher-tech, the better. We’ve got shoes that feel like pillows, shirts that are waterproof and breathe and barely register on a scale, and bikes that cost more than my first car did.
Gear is awesome. Gear is fun. Then there’s the gear we just use. The gear that sits unnoticed and just flat does the job it was designed to do. The gear you don’t brag about to your friends until you need it. Then that utilitarian gear grabs the spotlight.
The new Reliance Outdoor Aqua-Stack (MSRP $29.99) is that kind of gear. Water storage? Yawn you say? Have you ever been camping in the Tennessee Valley in August and September? The Aqua-Stack will make your campsite the hit of the backwoods.
The Aqua-Stack holds water. So do your old milk jugs, you say. But wait … do your milk jugs hold five gallons each and feature interlocking ridges for improved stacking ability (up to three Aqua-Stacks high)? No. This is water storage that makes you look like you take your home away from home seriously.
Wait … There’s More
The Reliance Outdoor Aqua-Stack also features:
- A hideaway spigot
- A premium vent
- Made from recyclable material
- BPA-free
- Food safe and FDA approved (your water or water-based beverage doesn’t taste like plastic)
Aqua-Stack Bottom Line
The Aqua-Stack is tough. It’s rugged. Just keep it out of sunlight, because UV radiation degrades plastic. You’re not going to carry this container on your back, but it will sit there inconspicuously in the shade waiting for you to fill your water bottle for your hike or your hydration system for that heat-of-the-day bike ride.
And you’ll brag on it.
