Thinksport Insulated Water Bottle (12 oz., 17 oz., and 25 oz. bottles $19.99-$21.99 from Think): This wonderful insulated water bottle narrows in the center for easy gripping, and it has an ingenious removable mesh filter for brewing tea. It is dishwasher safe, easy to clean by hand and thoughtfully designed. 

According to Thinksport,

The 25oz bottles hold ice cold for approximately 18 hours. Some tell us about how they left their Thinksport bottle in the car in 100-degree weather only to return to clinking ice five hours later. Others tell us how we kept their drinks cold for longer than 24 hours. One customer even put our bottle in a thermal testing chamber and reported that it was the best bottle he had ever seen. On average the sports bottles hold contents hot for 4 hours. Because of the double-walled construction, you also won't feel the temperature of the products. So it's important to be careful if you've placed hot liquids into the bottle.

Features:

- Double-walled and vacuum-sealed stainless steel - keeps contents hot or cold for hours. 

- Perfect for hot or cold beverages - does not sweat (for cold contents) or burn your hand (for hot contents). 

- Contoured design - makes the bottle easy to hold and visually distinctive from the many, many straight-walled bottles. 

- Removable mesh filter - keeps ice from blocking the drinking spout and allows users to conveniently brew tea on the go.

- Unsurpassed testing for material safety - our products undergo rigorous chemical and biologic testing to ensure they do not contain toxic chemicals.

Available colors: Natural silver, matte black, blue, purple, green and orange. Light Blue, White and Light Pink available in some sizes
Overall Assessment: Wearing, and reapplying sunscreen frequently is essential, and so is staying hydrated during the summer months. The key is to avoid excessive exposure, reapply sunscreen frequently and to stay hydrated. Have fun!
