The Micro Hydro: small, stylish, and finally in the Netherlands!
The Hydro Flask has been an icon among sustainable drinking bottles for years. Known for its robust design, excellent insulation, and fresh colors, the brand has built up a loyal fan base worldwide. Now there’s something new: the Hydro Flask Micro Bottle. And good news for Dutch fans: this small yet striking bottle is now also available here.
Small but mighty
With a capacity of just 200 milliliters, the Micro Bottle is a true mini version of the classic Hydro Flask. Yet it doesn’t compromise on quality: thanks to its double-walled vacuum insulation, a drink stays hot or cold for hours. It’s leakproof, durable, and available in various colors such as Black, Surf, Reef, and Aloe. Its biggest advantage? The size. The bottle literally fits into a jacket pocket, handbag, or lunchbox, making it ideal for on the go.
An American hype
In the United States, the Micro Bottle quickly took off. Media outlets such as Business Insider and The Guardian wrote about a striking countermovement: after years of ever-larger drinking cups—think of the huge tumblers—the trend has suddenly become “small is beautiful.” The Hydro Flask Micro fits perfectly into that development. While large cups are mainly practical, this mini bottle is seen as a stylish accessory. On TikTok and Instagram, photos and videos are popping up showing the bottle alongside keychains, small handbags, and other “tiny accessories.”
The popularity is so big that the bottles in the US often sell out immediately. Some colors even fetched high prices on resale platforms. The Micro Bottle thus became more than just a functional product: it quickly turned into a lifestyle item.
Exclusively available in the Netherlands
In the Netherlands, the Micro Bottle is now exclusively available at Snowcountry and Bever. This makes it attractive as a stylish and affordable gift, or simply as a handy bottle for short trips, lunch breaks, or a walk through the city. For long hikes or sports days, 200 milliliters is of course on the small side, but as an extra bottle or a “daily companion,” it works perfectly.
