Vacuum bottles are great devices for storing hot and cold drinks, but not all of them can withstand the rigors of the outdoors. If you want a vacuum bottle that's impact resistant, consider a stainless steel one. Here are my choices. Each one is lightweight, durable, has teflon coated interior (for easy cleaning), and features double stainless steel walls and pour-through stopper.
