Weighing only 1.3 ounces, it collapses to fit in your pocket when empty, stands upright when filled, and pairs with Platypus filtration systems for clean water on the go. Durable, reusable, and made in the USA with a limited lifetime warranty, it’s the ultimate blend of convenience and performance for the modern outdoor enthusiast. ## Description The Platypus Platy 2-Liter Ultralight Collapsible Water Bottle is not just an outdoor essential, but an everyday, everyone, everywhere essential. Reusable, and refillable, it’s significantly lighter in weight than a hard water bottle of comparable volume and, when empty, collapses to take up a fraction of the space. While it’s designed for outdoor pursuits like camping, thru-hiking, and backpacking, it’s also perfect for travel, when space is at a premium, and is a safe option for the pool and beach, or anywhere that glass is impractical or hazardous. BPA-free, BPS-free, and phthalate-free, its food-grade polyethylene liner does not retain flavors, so it can hold water one day, and wine the next. When filled, the base expands so that the bottle stands upright; screw top keeps contents secure. The Platypus Platy 2-Liter Lightweight Foldable Water Bottle is compatible with all Platypus caps and drink tubes, and can be paired with a water filter, and the GravityWorks Water Filtration System. Bottle weighs just 1.3 ounces and measures 13.8 x 17.5 inches; total capacity of 2.1 liters (70 ounces). Made in the USA. Manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty. Review: Keeps my water fresh, would recommend! - This collapsible bottle is a great solution for anyone trying to keep their pack lightweight and compact. When empty it folds down incredibly small, which is perfect for backpacking or travel where space matters. Once filled, it holds its shape well and doesn’t feel flimsy. The 2-liter capacity is ideal for longer hikes, and the wide opening makes it easy to fill from a sink or stream filter. I also appreciate that the plastic doesn’t leave any strange tastes or smells in the water. If you’re trying to cut weight while still carrying a decent amount of water, this is a really well-designed option.

The solution is easier than you think! Replace the white sealing washer with a thinner one. Ideally about 1mm thick, or between 1/16" and 3/64". May be hard to find, but a few minutes with an Exacto knife and some faucet packing material from the local orange hardware store will have you in business. Just trace the original gasket onto the rubber sheet, cut, and no more leaks! (Warning: the washers used for your garden hose are still too thick......yes, I tried). I can verify no leaks even with the Sawyer flip-cap closed (it wasn't intentional). Cost me nothing (I had the material already), and took me about five minutes of perfectionist cutting. **Q: Where is this made? China? U.S.** A: It says on the package that it's made in the USA. It also has Seattle stamped on the container itself but I don't know if it's made there. **Q: How wide is the cap? I want to use a Lifestraw through it.** A: The opening is only about 3/4", a lifestraw will not fit into the opening. You can look into getting a Sawyer mini filter (about $20 at Walmart). The Sawyer has the same thread size as the Platypus bag. Just screw the filter directly to the bag. You can modify the Platypus drink tube to fit onto the clean water side of the Sawyer filter. It weighs 2 oz and can filter up to 100,000 gallons. The flow rate is good as well. Hope this helps. **Q: is there a way to get replacement cap? I bought 2 of these and my Boy Scout lost the cap to one during a flash flood! on his hike?** A: You can pay between $3 -$6 for a replacement cap. If I were you I would just buy a Smart Water (bottled water) bottle and use the cap off of it. I think there are 2 different types, plain cap and sports top. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Keeps my water fresh, would recommend! *by A***I on March 16, 2026* This collapsible bottle is a great solution for anyone trying to keep their pack lightweight and compact.

Here's what you need to know, for carrying a bit over 2L of water its amazingly light, only 1.3 ounces on my scale. It is also very rugged for a collapsible light weight water container. Take it for what it is; a very lightweight and fairly durable way to transport/hold a good amount (2L+) of water. As a side note, this will stand upright when filled with water, which is pretty nice. I personally carry this as a backup water carrier, or for when I make camp and want to filter a lot of water at once before bed so I don't have to in the morning. I only keep clean/purified water in it and when I need water from it I generally pour it into another container to use/drink. Because of the way I use it I'm not overly hung up with how it's difficult to clean because of the small opening, which I'd agree with. However because I again only put clean/purified water in there I just put a couple drops of bleach in and fill it up with water, let it sit over night and then pour it out. I really like this and carry it with me as a standard piece of gear, the pro's far outweigh the con's when used under appropriate expectations in my opinion. ## Frequently Bought Together - Platypus Platy 2-Liter Ultralight Collapsible Backpacking Water Bottle - Platypus SoftBottle Collapsible Backpacking Water Bottle with Closure Cap - Platypus Hoser Hydration System Drink Tube Kit --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/1901675-platy-2-liter-ultralight-collapsible-backpacking-water-bottle](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/1901675-platy-2-liter-ultralight-collapsible-backpacking-water-bottle) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
