Giant Loop Cactus Canteen - Grey

The Cactus Canteen™ transports drinking water in an ultra-rugged, expedition-ready, collapsible container that integrates with Giant Loop’s adventure-proof packing system. Stop worrying about your delicate hydration bladder or where to store your hard-sided water containers, and strap the Cactus Canteen anywhere you’d like!

Essential kit for every adventure, the Cactus Canteen has a two-layer construction featuring an inner bladder and outer cover. Both layers are built with thick, durable, abrasion- and puncture- resistant materials for years of service in extreme environments. Available in 1-gallon and 2-gallon capacities.

The large filler neck makes it easy to fill, dispense, and clean, and is compatible with large-mouth water filters. The dispensing hose has an on/off valve to control the flow and stows away behind an access zipper on the cover. The hose fitting is compatible with standard hydration bladder attachments.

Handles on the top and side make the Cactus Canteen easy to wrangle while filling and dispensing. Daisy chain webbing guides tie-down straps for secure attachment to luggage or vehicles. Reflective materials improve visibility.

Rinse the bladder with clean water before first use, filling and emptying through the wide filler neck.
Use the on/off valve on the dispensing hose to control flow, and close it fully before stowing the hose behind the zippered access panel on the cover.
Secure the canteen with tie-down straps run through the daisy-chain webbing, and check the straps at fuel stops — a full canteen shifts as its contents move.
Hang the canteen from its adjustable strap and aluminium hook when filling or dispensing so it stays upright and hands-free.
After each trip, empty the bladder completely, flush it with warm water through the wide mouth, and run water through the dispensing hose to clear the line.
Dry the bladder and the outer cover thoroughly before packing away; storing it damp encourages odours and mould.
Brush off grit and mud from the 840D nylon cover and wash it with mild soap and water only — avoid solvents, fuel and harsh cleaners.
Store rolled up or flat in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight, and leave the filler neck open so air can circulate.
Keep the canteen away from hot exhausts and sharp edges when mounting, and do not use it for fuel or chemicals — it is intended for potable water only.
