Customers like the size of the bottle. They mention that it doesn't feel bulky or heavy with just water, that it fits perfectly on their hand, and that it's adjustable to fit any size hand. Some say that it is compact, lightweight, and good for smaller hands or for runners/walkers that don't want to carry.

92 customers mention35 positive57 negative

Customers are mixed about the leaking of the bottle. Some mention that there is no leakage at all and the valve thing is great, while others say that it leaks several times on a run, the hand just a bit too hard, and the water frequently drips on their hand. The pouch contents get wet in the Nathan, while the Camelback does not. The pocket is not waterproof, and with this style of cap, you WILL splash yourself.

"...If you squeeze the narrow sides, it will leak...." Read more

"...I hand wash and dry in a rack. The water squirts into your mouth when running so there is no twisting or sucking, perfect!" Read more

"...The Nathan gets messy, the Camelback does not, The pouch contents get wet in the Nathan, Pouch stays dry in Camelback Quick grip..The Nathan is 10oz..." Read more

"...My observations: Mine hasn't leaked, but I have squirted myself a few times accidently because I forget I don't need to "hold" it & I..." Read more

56 customers mention38 positive18 negative

Customers are mixed about the quality of the bottle. Some mention that it's a good product and well made, while others say that the seal of the cap to the bottle isn't made very well and it leaks from there. Some say that it smells quite bad and the nozzle part is finally got ripped.

"...The Velcro on the strap closes very secure. It has never come undone on me...." Read more

"I love Nathan products, but this one falls short. The idea behind the pack is great!..." Read more

"...I have washed the bottle 3 times and the water still tastes like plastic.I really wanted to love this, but I just don't." Read more

"...Stood up to sand and heat of the summer desert climate...." Read more

55 customers mention35 positive20 negative

Customers are mixed about the fit of the bottle. Some mention that it feels comfortable in their small palm, and is ergonomically better. However, others say that it is a very tight fit, and not as easy to squeeze as they would like. The collar is also tight, and the strap that fastens around your hand is awkward.

"It's not heavy, even completely full. It's comfortable, no need to grip it with your hand, just strap it on and relax your hand. It won't fall off...." Read more

"...Probably not ideal for super large hands/grips and doesn't carry much water but great for small runs with people with small to moderate size hand..." Read more

"The comfortable glove-like strap leaves hands free for other tasks, and makes dropping your water bottle impossible...." Read more

"...The handstrap is extremely comfortable, and, the pocket will hold a good amount for such a small bottle...." Read more

Work great as a small water bottle for my running toddler.

Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2014

Verified Purchase

I bought this for my 5 year daughter who runs with me. She is running 4 miles and asked for her own water bottle (I always run with my Nathan Quick draw bottle) but mine is too large for her so after doing some research, found this to be deal for her small hand.
It's still a bit too large and I don't fill up the bottle all the way (she still has to rotate hands like I do with my running bottle because of the weight of the water) but this bottle is the most ergonomically comfortable for her little hands. I have adjustable Velcro strap pulled all the way tight there is still a little play but it's not a problem because her thumb fits through the top loop and the bottle still nests comfortably in her palm. The bottle is designed for a quick squeeze to get water out but because her hands are too small to squeeze the bottle she's modified her water intake by inverting the bottle and taking a quick pull of water by sucking; we haven't experienced any problems with this style of bottle leaking... but she only uses it running and keeps it upright and can't squeeze it. I typically tend to throw my Nathan bottles through the top rack of the dishwasher occasionally to sterilize and notice that this is not the easiest bottle to get out the harness but then again, I only fill her bottle with water so it's not a problem because we don't take it out very often.
For reference, I am a petite woman of 5' size 4-6 clothing with fairly small hands and it fits great in my hands. Probably not ideal for super large hands/grips and doesn't carry much water but great for small runs with people with small to moderate size hand grips.

Light on hydration, but handy

Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2018

Verified Purchase

I signed up for a learn to run a 5K course. Hydration is drilled into you, so I thought this would be handy. Pros: Compact, lightweight, and the pocket is a good size for necessities such as ID, car key/fob, and a tube of chapstick. Cons: Not enough hydration for really hot running days, the cap doesn't have quite enough threading on it to stay tight and avoid spillage, and I have small hands, so I think eventually the handle will stretch too much without enough adjustment to keep it snug on my hand. The handle/pocket combo is difficult to take off and put back on in order to clean the bottle well without getting the whole thing wet.

I wanted a small water bottle for little sips of water on those runs on hot, humid days. This fits the bill pretty well, though it's not a perfect solution for me. If I wear it as depicted in most photos, with the bottle on the back of my hand, I get a strain in my thumb joint. It works much better for me with the bottle in the palm of my hand, with fingers curled around it. You do have to thread the lid carefully, and I'm not optimistic about how long the plastic threads will last. The bottle must be squeezed on the long flat sides, the front and back of the bottle. If you squeeze the narrow sides, it will leak. The pocket is adequate for my local runs, with enough room for a housekey and a small personal alarm. It could also fit an ID or credit card. Most modern car keys probably would not fit. The hand strap does absorb sweat over time and develop a bad odor, but I found a soak in dish detergent and water was enough to get it fresh again. All in all, it's the best thing I've found for my needs so far.

This water bottle has been a life saver for long runs. It is easy to put on and the amount of water is perfect even for super long runs, and marathons. I have recommended this bottle to all my girlfriends that are runners! The bottle is not in the way and you hardly notice it when running. You can fit tons of stuff in the pocket too, lady products, cards, chapstick, energy gels, tissue. It's awesome!! Love the various colors!! Like the brand!! I have had mine for over a year and a girlfriend has had hers for a few months and they are used often and have done well. I hand wash and dry in a rack. The water squirts into your mouth when running so there is no twisting or sucking, perfect!

Decent bottle but just a little too small for me and key pouch gets wet

Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2014

Verified Purchase

(Update 1/26/15...I have actually started using this again in the winter when I don't need as much water, think I have taken it out on some 13 mile runs (but there are drinking fountains at two different spots) I have done 10 miles in the winter with just this bottle, it will hold key fob and a Rise Bar energy bar).

I bought this and the Camelback Quick Grip Podium Chill Bottle (see separate review). I will compare some here again. The Camelback is just a bit awkward on longer runs and the Nathan too small. The Nathan gets messy, the Camelback does not, The pouch contents get wet in the Nathan, Pouch stays dry in Camelback Quick grip..The Nathan is 10oz the Camelback says 21oz now (swear it was 22oz when I bought it). I was worried the Camelback would have a plastic taste/smell ( I hear people complain all the time about that with their Camelback vests) but the Camelback bottle is the first high tech plastic thing I have ever bought that has no plastic taste or smell or off gassing!!! The Nathan does have a slight plastic taste/smell but tolerable and I am very sensitive to tastes and especially smells..so if I can deal with it you should be able to. I like the thumb hole on the Nathan, the grip is a bit too wide around on Camelback and the bottle has notches and indentations that I end up fussing with the first few miles to get my hand just right. The Nathan is small and light and easy to run with. I think the Camelback is quieter with less sloshing around noise if that matters to you, maybe its the insulation.. Key fob fits fine in both bottle pouches.

I have been using this for a month now and here are some observations and highlights on the Nathan Quick Shot:

The good:

Thumb hole works, bottle is light and easy to carry.
Good for short runs only.
Key fob fits in pouch.

The not so good:

The valve is not very efficient, can get messy, works better if shooting water downward but really need to water proof the pouch, anything in there will get wet. Think it could also be splash back from close proximity to the valve.
Very slight plastic smell.

The strange:

I was expecting something about the size of a 12 oz beverage can, but this is tiny! I was so stunned I got out a measuring cup and it does indeed hold 10 oz! lol

Summary:

Its small and pouch gets wet but does the job on short runs (for someone who ran for years without carrying water it seems odd for me to complain the bottle does not hold enough)! Anyway I have been using this on short 3 to 4 mile runs and The Camelback on runs longer than that.

**A day after writing this review I was on a run and thinking about th review and I started laughing, For years I would do 6 to 10 mile runs (depending on terrain and trail) in the summer without even thinking about water...10 to 12 mile runs in the winter with no water..so it is kind of amusing I am saying this bottle is good only for short runs !! **

UPDATE:

When I was shopping a month ago on Amazon all I could seem to find was 10 oz or 22oz bottles, today I found a 18oz Nathan and ordered it (but reviews mention it leaks/gets messy). Again I wish Camelback would offer that size on Amazon as it is a superior bottle to the Nathan...Or as I mentioned change up the gripping area...

Perfect size for my small hand, yet it holds enough water for my jogging. I used it all the time. I love the bottle design. No need to open the top to drink water & the bottle does not leak when I go running.
