7.4The Vesica® is a collapsible, reusable and light water bottle that behaves like a hard bottle for easy drinking on the move. The Vesica carries 1 liter of water when full and stows away small while empty, making it the ideal travel bottle. Simply tuck it in your pack or suitcase while not in use and expand when ready to fill!
We've taken our experience from the Vecto and made a robust, light and easy to use bottle so you can have a handy tool to stay hydrated. Featuring a collapsible body with a stiff neck and bottom, the Vesica can stand when full with water or air, held for drinking and collapsed when empty.
Using the same thread as the 42mm Vecto, the Vesica can be used as a dirty water bottle for filters like the BeFree by Katadyn. If you like to filter into a container for easy drinking, use the Vesica with the Vecto to create a fast, light and easy to use filtering system.
Features:
Packable and easily stashable when empty
Lightweight at only 60g for a 1 liter bottle
Top string near the cap for easy pull from side pockets
fits in many backpack strap bottle pockets and bike water bottle cages
This bottle works great in my CTUG 1L bottle holder. Unfortunately, it leaks with my Salomon filter, which I find to be a superior filter to the BeFree. I now have to question whether it will leak with the Pure Clear filter cap which I want for filtering out chemicals and viruses.
Thanks for your review! The Salomon filter may not be fully compatible with our products even though they are both 42mm. However, A 42mm o-ring can be used for a complete seal. If you have any further difficulties, please reach out at contact@cnocoutdoors.com and we'll be happy to troubleshoot with you!

Great bottle
I've been using a Vecto for years with my VersaFlow filter and it's been great. I was looking for a collapsible bottle with a wider mouth to use with electrolyte powder while out on multi-day trips. I wanted one that would be easier to clean than a narrow mouth one. This bottle fit the ticket. My main issue is that the edge of the opening is pretty sharp. It's not sharp enough to cut my mouth but it is sharp enough that I'm worried it'll irritate my mouth and give me canker sores. I probably will try to file or sandpaper it a bit and see if that helps, but I worry that that will make it leaky.

Really nice bottle
This is a great bottle. I have several that I have used for a few years.
The only reason I gave it 4 *is the cap. Cnoc needs to design a tougher cap. I just ordered replacement caps for the bottles I've used for several years now. Tendency to cross thread.
Otherwise I love the bottles.

Great way to filter your water
I saw other hikers using the product a multi day hike. I then ordered my own, and really enjoyed using it right away. Water filters so much faster than other methods I've used. The large opening is great for adding supplements to the water. It fits my pack bottle holder perfectly. So happy with what I hope it all goes term reusable product.
