Product Description
The Mitour Football Shape Collapsible Silicone Water Bottle is a multi-function outdoor hydration product that combines a bold, sports-themed aesthetic with practical field-ready features: a tri-fold silicone body, a built-in directional compass in the cap, an aluminum alloy carabiner clip, and a food-grade PP carry handle. At 580ml / 19.8oz, it holds enough for a full training session or day hike while folding down to a fraction of a standard rigid bottle's footprint.
The football (soccer ball) exterior is made from food-grade silicone over a food-grade plastic frame — durable, odor-free, BPA-free, and 360° shock-resistant. It is equally at home as a daily sports bottle, an outdoor adventure companion, and a high-impact branded gift for sports organizations, teams, corporate events, and promotional campaigns.

Unlike standard accordion-fold bottles that only collapse vertically, this bottle folds into three distinct configurations:
"I" Shape — fully extended for maximum capacity (20.9cm tall)
"D" Shape — partial fold for mid-size carry
Oval Shape — fully flattened disc form for minimal pack space
This tri-fold versatility means the bottle adapts to the user's activity — full capacity on a long run, flat-packed in a travel bag, or clipped to a belt loop in D-shape.
The screw-on cap houses a functional directional compass embedded in the top face — a genuine navigational tool for hikers, campers, and trail runners. It adds meaningful utility beyond hydration and significantly increases the perceived gift value of the product.
The included aluminum alloy carabiner hook attaches to backpack straps, belt loops, tent loops, and gear racks. No need to stow the bottle inside a pack — it rides externally, accessible at any time during activity.
The integrated PP strap provides a secure hand grip for carrying the bottle in disc or D-shape form. Ergonomically molded for comfortable one-handed hold during outdoor activities.
Every joint and seam on the bottle is engineered with close-tolerance fitting to prevent leaks during high-movement activities. The silicone body absorbs impact from drops, and the screw-cap forms a reliable pressure seal. Tested for zero leakage under standard outdoor use conditions.
The drinking rim is made from smooth, rounded food-grade PP — antibacterial, odor-resistant, and comfortable for direct-drink use without a straw or additional lid. Easy to clean and safe for daily use.
The silicone body is certified food-grade, BPA-free, non-toxic, tasteless, and odor-neutral. It does not leach chemicals into beverages and does not retain flavors between uses. Safe for water, sports drinks, and juice.
The high-fidelity football (soccer ball) black-and-white panel exterior is a natural conversation starter and display piece. As a branded promotional item, it delivers strong visual recall at sports events, trade shows, and retail displays.
This product is a strong fit for:
Sports brands and football clubs — team merchandise, fan gifts, stadium retail
Outdoor and camping gear retailers — multi-function gear with compass and carabiner appeals to adventure buyers
Corporate sports event promotions — brand-logo bottles for sponsored sporting events, marathons, tournaments
School sports programs — practical, durable water bottle for student athletes
Promotional merchandise importers — unique novelty with functional value for tradeshow giveaways and gift sets
Amazon and DTC sports/outdoor sellers — strong visual differentiation in a crowded drinkware category
Mitour Silicone manages the full OEM production process in-house: mold tooling, silicone compounding, surface printing, assembly of all components (carabiner, strap, compass cap), quality inspection, and export packaging.

Q1: Can I add my brand logo to this bottle?
Yes. The PP frame panels and smooth silicone surface sections can accept silkscreen logo printing, debossed/embossed branding, or heat transfer print. Provide your artwork in AI or PDF format and we will prepare a pre-production mockup for approval before mass production.
Q2: Is the compass functional, or is it decorative?
The compass built into the cap is a functional directional compass — it reads actual cardinal directions (N/S/E/W/NE/SE/SW/NW). It is designed to add genuine outdoor utility to the product, not merely as decoration.
Q3: How does the tri-fold system work? Will it leak in folded positions?
The bottle folds at designated silicone flex points into three configurations: "I" (fully extended), "D" (partial fold), and Oval (fully folded). In all configurations, the screw-top cap maintains the same leak-proof seal. The silicone body does not crack or lose sealing integrity through repeated folding cycles.
Q4: What is the carabiner rated for? Is it strong enough for outdoor use?
The carabiner is an aluminum alloy accessory clip rated for bottle-carrying loads. It is suitable for hanging the bottle from backpack straps, belt loops, and gear loops during hiking, camping, and sports activities. It is not rated for load-bearing climbing applications.
Q5: What certifications does this product carry?
This product meets FDA (US food contact) standards for all food-contact materials. Our factory holds BSCI social compliance and ISO9001 quality management certifications. LFGB (EU food contact) documentation is available upon request for European buyers.
Q6: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
Please contact us to confirm current MOQ for this product. We work with sports brands, importers, and promotional merchandise buyers at competitive order volumes. MOQ varies depending on customization scope (stock logo vs. full custom color).
Q7: Can you produce other sports ball designs — basketball, baseball, rugby — on the same structure?
We have production capability for themed sports ball silicone collapsible bottles beyond the standard football design. Contact us with your target sport or theme and we will advise on tooling requirements and lead times.
Q8: Is the bottle suitable for carbonated drinks or hot beverages?
This bottle is optimized for cold and room-temperature beverages — water, sports drinks, juice. It is not recommended for carbonated drinks (internal pressure from gas) or hot liquids above 60°C (140°F).
Q9: How do you handle quality control before shipment?
Each unit undergoes visual inspection (surface, print, color), dimensional verification, and a water leak test before packing. We support third-party factory inspection (SGS, BV, Intertek) upon request at the buyer's arrangement.
Q10: What export documentation do you provide?
We supply commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, food-grade material safety certificate, and product compliance test reports. FOB, CIF, and EXW shipping terms are all supported. Both air and sea freight options are available.
