Plate Carrier Hydration: How Loud is Your Water Bottle? (IcePlate®, Camelback, Nalgene)

How much noise does IcePlate make when half-full?” “Is IcePlate® loud when carrying water in the field?” “How loud is IcePlate compared to Camelbak?” “How loud is IcePlate® compared to a Nalgene bottle?”

We get these questions consistently (if infrequently), so we finally got around to staying at the shop till midnight (need quiet surroundings) to test an IcePlate Curve®, a Camelbak, a vacuum insulated bottle (we tested a Camelbak model, but it is identical to a Hydroflask or any of the hundreds of other insulated bottles on the market today) and a Nalgene bottle. We asked the question: What is the quietest way to carry water in the field?
