So Many Types of Flasks in the World

Yes they are. It’s not surprising actually, considering that flasks have been around for quite a long while. So, what are the best types of hip flasks to consider?
Here’s a quick roundup:

Stainless Steel Flasks

The most popular type, affordable, durable and comes in an endless variety of designs.

Leather Flasks

Stainless steel wrapped in leather, for a more rustic look.

Pewter Flasks

Classier and more pricey; a distinct look.

Copper Flasks

The old school version of hip flasks; a winning color.

Sterling Silver Flasks

Elegant, stylish and expensive.

Titanium Flasks

The hip-ster flask of the moment for the aware drinker.

Stylish Flasks for Men, Fashionable Flasks for Women

There is and there isn’t. The world of style and fashion has shifted to Gender Fluid Mode, so whatever liquor container you feel comfortable with, go for it.

Still – personally we feel that girly flasks like garter flasks, bracelet flasks or purse flasks should be carried by the ladies, but hey, we’re not judging. And if you, yes the feminine looking person over there wish to purchase a sturdy titanium flask, that’s OK too.

The Best Hip Flasks Come in All Shapes and Sizes

They do. From tiny, hidden flasks of 1oz all the way to oversized 10oz flasks. We are traditionalists ourselves, we like our cool hip flasks like we like our smartphones – at a reasonable size. So we go for the classic 6oz flask, or its slightly beefier brother, the 8oz flask.

So You’ve Decided You Want to Buy a Cool Hip Flask

We support your decision. First and foremost, flasks are a cool accessory. And – very useful, especially with the rising prices of alcohol. Obviously we encourage responsible drinking, but that’s totally not a problem – cool flasks hold a pretty small amount of booze after all, a few swigs and you’re done.

Start with your budget, since the selection is immense; that will narrow you down a bit. Next, go over the different types of flasks and figure out which is the best hip flask for you.

From there we can’t help you. It’s a matter of personal taste. And don’t worry – as we’ve mentioned before, the selection for best flasks is incredible. There are amazing and super stylish flasks for women in any design imaginable. As for you gentlemen, you’ve got your work cut out for you as well; the variety of flasks for men would not disappoint you.

Personalized Flasks Are All the Rage

Personalization has taken over many different aspects of lives, so why not flasks? We are fed up with the generic, the mass-produced, we’re after the unique, the different, the personalized.

Highly popular for groomsmen and bridesmaids, engraved flasks might be a bit of a cliché, but they are also a cool souvenir from a special occasion; we are aloud to be sentimental about special occasions, that’s what they’re for. You can also buy flasks on group deal & discount sites.
