We recently spoke to powerhouse Victoria Beckham about her travels, and when asked what’s the one thing she wouldn’t travel without, we were surprised by the answer. Instead of an expectedly lavish pot of La Mer cream or a pair of oversized Celine sunglasses, the one item Victoria Beckham always travels with is a very practical water bottle.
“I have a Yeti flask, and I go everywhere with it,” she told us.
And she’s not the only one that’s a fan. “David has one, too; we all became completely obsessed with them. It reminds you to keep hydrated, and one of the most important things is to stay hydrated.”
If you’re yet to join the Yeti fan club, the American brand specialises in portable coolers, outdoor accessories and ultra-durable drinkware, including portable mugs, coffee cups and water bottles.
Their classic Rambler bottle is a winner when it comes to travel; made from stainless steel and vacuum insulated, so your water will stay cold for hours. I put one to the test earlier this year on a hike in the height of summer in Australia and can vouch that the water stayed icy cold for the entire day.
While the durable bottle is on the heavier side compared to other standard drink bottles, the Rambler’s top handle makes it easier to carry, or even secure to a backpack via a carabiner clip.
The Rambler bottle is available as a chug version with a leak-resistant cap or with a flip straw lid and also comes in smaller sizes for children.
