Pretty expensive, and pretty boring design!
Get some leather one there too, much nicer to hold with bare skin (unscrewing the top with gloves can be tricky) in the cold than metal.

Whoah, didn't mean to offend anyone. I'll take it down. Is there a way?

Not about to buy anything from people who don't know the difference between loose and lose either.

Noooo you are missing the point. I have just placed and order for 10000 of them.... why you ask.
resale - Nah.
snowheads presents - Nah
because of this.
quote....
Guarantee
If you are not satisfied, for any reason, simply return the flask withing 1 year and we will refund you 110% of the purchase price. No questions asked.
quote ends.
So I have 10000 on order, 10000 * £64 = £640,000. They will all be returned because I won't like the colour (it's a reason after all). I get £640,000 back, + 10% = £64,000.
Heck, I may even keep one myself, so £63,936 profit (less interest lost of course). I would be buying more but the bank account can't stand it.
You lot are so not supportive of startups sometimes...

ansta1, Check the FAQ, 110% on your first one only, so I make that a huge loss after you've posted them back!

Bu66er just found a flaw in the plan...
Q. Do you have a limit of how many I can purchase?
A. No. However, the 110% money-back guarantee is only available for the first item. Additional items will be refunded at the 100% purchase price.
kennethmarshall,
apologies for the humour but why are should we pay £64 for a hip flask that we can find for £10 elsewhere (accepting we would need to add engraving).

True - but you can use the 10% on the one to buy the Amazon advertised flask above and it will almost cost you nothing for the same product sans Pendant Ski engraving

You know it makes sense.

so actually 640,010 and then shipping them back.... Oh well Rodders, this time next year we will be millionaires!

So you don't lose the cap if you drop it on the chairlift. What about the rest of it ?

kennethmarshall, it is not a ski flask. In fact it has nothing to do with skiing.

specially designd for a chairlift? nice work. I'm sure Lord Fontelroy having a swig going down the first drive of pawpaw's shoot 100 years ago was thinking what a boon it would be on the old charabang ski lift
that said, everyone needs one - i never go skiing without mine

There's only one showHead I'd trust to take a swig from his flask . . . Does anyone else think that sounds just a wee bit too homaerotic? . . . Tall Tone, take a bow. He fills his with unique and brilliant malts . . . the rest of you, to my experience, fill yours from sewer leakage

^ its getting the coke and ice cubes in on top of the malt thats tricky

Masque, of course I jest, i'm usually packing a Tomintoul 16 or a Triple Distilled beauty from the real home of whiskEy, and nothing so uncivilised as offering swigs to ski partners, my flask comes complete with 2 little steel tumblers. TallyHo

What a mug i've been, paying £9.99 for mine (albeit without the fancy engraving (about 50p a letter from my trophy guy (Yeah, i've got a trophy guy... you DON'T???))

Ray Zorro, Well untill you get a reply my guess is around 30 seconds after you drop it on the floor after burning your fingers filling it! Aluminium is a good conductor of heat!

1) Flask S/S covered in leather and came with two stainless steel pouring spouts for 14.99
2) It's full of Caol Ila cask strength - sloe gin be b0ggered
3) is there any reason I would want to have 'Pendant ski' emblazoned on anything? Am I missing something? Is this some hyper-trendy label that passed me by? Should I get my flask engraved 'Pedant Ski'?
