It’s been a long and tiring day in the brutal heat. You’ve suffered through a mighty battle, and saw several of your comrades fall on a bloody field. As you finally return to your camp, sweat pouring down your forehead, you reach for your Laced Bottle Holder and pull back the cap to drink deeply.

No one gives your bottle a second glance, since it seems perfectly suited to the time and place. Little do they know that you hide within your bottle holder the nectar of the gods--with enough sugar to rejuvenate your tired soul.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Laced Bottle Holder is a leather pouch designed to disguise your out-of-character drink bottle which comes with a 500ml plastic bottle. There’s no reason to forgo your favourite beverages due to bad immersion! Enjoy a crisp 500 ml (or approximately 16.9 US fluid ounce) beverage in the heat of summer by hiding the plastic with our extremely adjustable and attractive bottle holder.

To use, slide the bottle through the suede sleeve before lacing the top-grain leather caps together. Cover the top of your bottle with a final leather cap, secured to the holder with a long and durable leather cord that can be tied to your belt for easy travel.

Natural leather products are very durable, but require regular maintenance with leather care products to stay flexible and to increase life-time. Make sure your leather products are kept dry when stored. Let wet leather dry naturally before treating. If frequently wet and dry, increase frequency of maintenance.

Cleaning

Clean by removing dirt with a hard brush, then gently rub on leather soap with a clean, damp cloth until the leather appears clean. Remove soap with a separate damp cloth to wipe away any soap residue and then use a dry cloth to wipe away any remaining water from the leather.

Conditioning

You should always condition leather after cleaning, since the soap will have removed some of its natural oils. Treat the leather with mink oil, olive oil, or beeswax polish with a clean cloth, gently rubbing a small amount of oil or polish in circles into the leather. Allow the leather to soak in the oil before wiping the leather with a final clean cloth to remove any excess residue.
