WanderFull HydroBag Fit Guide: Which Water Bottle Fits Which Bag
The single most common WanderFull question is whether a particular bottle will actually fit. Diameter decides it, not ounces, so here is how the two bags compare and how to measure before you buy.
The numbers
What size bottle fits the original HydroBag?
WanderFull's own site gives the original as taking bottles up to 32 oz with a 3.75 inch diameter, without handles. The product information on our listings gives 3.5 inches. Those are close but not identical, so if your bottle is near the limit, measure it or bring it in and we will try it.
What size bottle fits the HydroBag HANDLE?
WanderFull's site gives the HANDLE as taking bottles up to 40 oz with a 4.25 inch diameter, with or without handles. Some of our listings quote a slightly larger figure, so treat around 4.25 inches as the working number and check anything bigger with us.
Why do the measurements differ between listings?
Because WanderFull's own site and the product information supplied with the bags do not quote identical figures, and we would rather tell you that than pick the flattering number. For a borderline bottle, the only answer that matters is whether it goes in, so call (830) 693-7573 or bring it by.
How do I measure my bottle's diameter?
Measure straight across the widest part of the bottle, usually the base or the belly, not around it. If you only have a tape measure, wrap it around the widest point and divide that number by 3.14.
Common bottles
Does a 32 oz bottle fit a HydroBag?
WanderFull's stated capacity for the original is up to 32 oz without a handle, so a standard 32 oz bottle is what it is built around. A 32 oz tumbler with a handle wants the HANDLE version instead.
Does a 40 oz tumbler fit?
That is what the HydroBag HANDLE is for. WanderFull gives the HANDLE as taking bottles up to 40 oz, with the handle sitting out through the side zip slot.
Does a 24 oz bottle fit?
Comfortably, in either bag. A 24 oz bottle sits well inside the original's diameter limit, and in the HANDLE it will simply have more room around it.
Will a bottle with a handle fit the original HydroBag?
Generally no, and that is exactly the gap the HANDLE version was made to fill. WanderFull describes the original as fitting bottles without handles.
What about handleless bottles?
Handleless is the original's home ground. The product information on some of our listings describes the dual pockets as suiting 24 to 34 oz handleless bottles.
Can I carry a wine bottle in it?
The product copy that comes with the bags mentions wine bottles as one of the things the main pocket will take, which is why people give them as picnic and hostess gifts. Bring a bottle by and we will check it against the bag.
Can I carry a reusable cup?
Yes, the main compartment is described as suiting reusable cups as well as bottles. If the cup has a handle, the HANDLE version is the one to look at.
Fit and use questions
Will my bottle fall out?
The main pocket is a deep padded compartment sized to hold the bottle snugly rather than a loose sling, and the point of the design is that you stop putting your bottle down and losing it. If yours feels loose in the bag, come in and we will find a better match.
Is the bottle pocket water resistant?
Our listings describe the main bottle compartment as water resistant, so condensation and drips stay away from what is in the zippered pockets. That is not the same as the bag being waterproof.
What if my bottle is too wide?
Then the HANDLE version is the next size up, and beyond that WanderFull makes larger styles. Call (830) 693-7573 with your bottle's diameter and we will tell you honestly whether anything we have will take it, or what we can order.
Does the HydroBag fit a phone?
Yes. The outer zippered pocket is designed for a phone, and WanderFull's own copy says it is sized for the largest cell phones.
Will a large phone in a case fit?
The outer pocket is built for large phones, though a thick case plus a wallet in the same pocket is asking a lot of it. Bring your phone in and slide it in before you buy, that settles it in a second.
