Ultimate Direction Fastdraw 600 Water Bottle - 20oz Midnight, One Size

This is far and away the best running bottle I've found. Great balance of size and portability, and easy enough to carry. Note that the pouch definitely does fit an iPhone 11 (and therefore iPhone XR) with 3 credit cards in a wallet case. The pouch on this is actually slightly bigger than the one on the last iteration of the FastDraw 600. The nozzle is also new and improved. The old one would stop closing automatically after a few months of use, so I had to remember to push it back down after each squirt. Not so with the new version.I'm docking one star because, as other reviewers have long pointed out, it is frustratingly easy to cause the lid to leak. As far as I can tell, this results from cross-threading the lid, the tiny rubber gasket inside the lid slipping out, and/or catching the edge of the pouch/hand-strap in the threats when screwing the lid on. These are all totally avoidable, but you definitely do have to pay attention and be deliberate each time you close the bottle.

This is a great handheld. Light and with good storage. The major issues is that it can be tricky at aid stations. The cloth handle can get trapped under the lid and the bottle will leak. If you are careful this will not happen, but it is very easy to do. It became enough of an issue that I no long use these bottles on race day.

This its my 8 plus with a thin case on it. The nipple is easy to use. You do have to be careful closing it, though. It will leak if you aren't careful.

Cannot exchange for other UD water bottles (old school ones with wide mouths-better for pouring in supplements compared to this bottle model). Has great storage space and the water bottle top pours well.

Awful. Leaks horribly all over. I have water dripping all over me and I can no longer use it.

So even after reading some negative reviews, I got this bottle anyway, and it was a mistake. It's the perfect size for most of my runs, but that's about it for the positive. The bite valve is the type that makes you work a little to get your water. I knew this going in, so that was my fault. The real issue is with the seal between the cap and the bottle. First off, if you lose the silicone gasket between the bottle and cap (which falls out easily) you will render this bottle useless because it will leak like a sieve. In a best case secenario, it takes a lot of finegelling to get the cap screwed on correctly without pinching the fabric between the cap and bottle. This will also make it leak. This is not too bad when it's hot out, but when my hands are already cold, I don't want them cold and wet.It's a nice looking bottle that holds the right amount for me. It's just riddled with design flaws and definitely shouldn't be used in a race situation where you need to refill quickly and go. I should've listened to the reviews.

Don't buy it! I am a long time fan of UD and their water bottles. I'm not sure if the older style was is available or whether the new cap/spout are a new design replacing the old - regardless; this design is poorly thought out at best.In the midst of a run (particularly if you're racing and not stopping), the spout is tough to pull out with your teeth. Within a week, the top part of the spout separated from body of the cap - mid run.If you don't wind up biting yourself trying to get spout to extend, you'll end up pulling it loose from the base rendering the whole thing inop (unless you want to stop and unscrew the cap every time)
