The Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Perfect Glass Water Bottle

Metal water bottles are having a moment, and plastic is everywhere—but if you know, you know: nothing beats glass. If you’re here, congratulations—you’re in the latter category, or at least you're on your way. Choosing the right glass water bottle isn’t just about hydration; it’s about aesthetics, sustainability, and making sure your daily essential is as chic as your handbag. So let’s break it down—because not all glass water bottles are created equal.

1. Health Benefits: Ditch the Plastic (and the Metal), Sip in Style
You wouldn’t drink wine from a plastic cup if you had a choice, so why tolerate plastic for your water? Glass is the cleanest, safest, and best-tasting way to drink water because it doesn’t leach chemicals or absorb odors. Every sip from a bkr bottle is pure, crisp, and free from the mystery flavors of whatever else you’ve put in a plastic bottle (ew). And metal? It changes the taste of your water, leaves a weird aftertaste, and sometimes even makes your water taste… metallic. No thanks.

2. Environmental Impact: Because the Planet Deserves Better
Single-use plastic bottles? Hard pass. They take centuries to break down, and a terrifying amount of them end up in the ocean. Reusable glass water bottles are the sustainable choice, and bkr takes it a step further with seriously durable bottles that can last for many years. Even compared to recyclable stainless steel, glass has a lower environmental footprint—steel production is energy-intensive, emitting nearly five times more CO2 per kilogram than glass manufacturing. And while both are recyclable, glass can be endlessly recycled without losing quality, making it the truly circular choice. A bkr isn’t just a water bottle—it’s a tiny revolution against wasteful habits.

3. Design and Aesthetics: Hydration, But Make It Fashion
If you’re carrying a water bottle everywhere, it better be cute. bkr bottles are the only ones designed to be as beautiful as they are functional, with a signature soft silicone sleeve that makes them easy to grip and impossible to ignore. Plus, we drop limited-edition colors that are as collectible as your favorite lipstick shade.

4. Durability and Maintenance: Because You Have Better Things to Worry About
Worried about breaking it? Don’t be. bkr bottles are made from high-quality, durable glass and wrapped in protective silicone. They’re dishwasher safe, easy to clean, and designed for everyday life—whether that’s the gym, your desk, or the bottom of your tote bag. You don't want to drop one intentionally, but I can't tell you how many times we've dropped ours and they miraculously survived.

5. The Right Size for Your Lifestyle: Big, Small, or Just Right
Some brands make water bottles so big they double as a kettlebell. Cute for a workout, but not great for real life. bkr offers a range of sizes—from the perfectly portable 250ml to the just-right 1L—so you can hydrate without lugging around a small aquarium.

Conclusion: The Bottle That Does It All.
At the end of the day, the perfect glass water bottle is one that makes you want to drink more water, fits seamlessly into your lifestyle, and looks effortlessly chic while doing it. That’s why there’s bkr. So go ahead, upgrade your hydration game. Shop bkr here and sip in style.
