CamelBak UK: Your Go-To for Cycling & Outdoor Hydration Gear

Sports

CamelBak is the world-famous hydration brand known for inventing hands‑free hydration. Its UK site offers a full range of gear—from hydration packs and bike bottles to reservoirs and accessories—designed for cycling, hiking, running, travel, and everyday adventures.

Origins: From IV Bag to Hydration Revolution

1989: At the punishing “Hotter’N Hell 100” race in Texas, EMT Michael Eidson creatively filled an IV bag with water, put it in a tube sock, and slung it under his jersey. A clothespin held the hose in place—creating hands-free hydration that became CamelBak’s signature.
Soon, cyclist Jeff Wemmer began selling the packs at races, elevating the idea into a robust brand with a loyal following.
Over the years, CamelBak has grown to include hydration backpacks, bike bottles, reservoirs, vests, and more—now the global leader in on-the-go hydration gear.

What CamelBak UK Offers

1. Hydration Packs & Vests
Ideal for long rides and hikes, these hands-free backpacks integrate water reservoirs with switch-run tubes and bite valves. Specialised versions are tailored to cycling, running, hiking, even snowy terrains.

2. Bike Bottles
The Podium line—like the Podium® Chill™ and Podium® Steel—feature double-wall insulation, BPA‑free materials, high-flow self-sealing caps, and leakproof locks. The 710 ml Podium Chill bottle is a summer favourite, offering long-lasting cold hydration at around £10 in current deals.

3. Everyday Water Bottles
From Tritan™ Renew plastic bottles to stainless steel tumblers and mugs, they’re eco-conscious and durable. The Thrive™ Chug 32 oz bottle is a standout for daily use.

4. On‑Bike & Waist Packs, Reservoirs & Accessories
Lightweight packs and advanced reservoirs like the Fusion line (launched 2022) meet varying needs—from fast mountain trails to urban commutes.

CamelBak emphasises durability and reusability. The “REPURPOSE” initiative focuses on safer materials, recycled content, repairability, minimal packaging, and overall resource preservation.
