Does the water bottle pocket hold just a 16-20 ounce store-bought bottle or could you fit a larger reusable bottle in it?

The pockets on the side are not large enough to hold a water bottle, unless it's tiny. The pockets are about 3" deep flat (with 3-d object depth ~2.5") and if you're really stuffing, you can fit something with a diameter of ~2.5". You would be able to fit the bottle inside the bag since the width of the bag is typically beyond the width of anything I carry(laptop-long ways, textbook size books, or a 3 ring binder), leaving room on the side for a water bottle

You've zeroed in on the only negative about this bag. It does not have a water bottle pocket at all. One side has a small felt lined pocket that has a depth of 4" and the other side has two individual pockets lined in polyester dot print, also 4" in . The bag is great but, you would have to put the water bottle inside and personally, bottles sweat and I wouldn't want my stuff insidegetting damp

Thanks! To answer your question, I just discovered 2 new pockets :). I have a 23oz water bottle, and it was a bit of a struggle to fit it in, but it eventually did slide in. I would say a standard 16oz water bottle would slide in much easier.

There are 2 small side pockets that would not fit any size water bottle, maybe a 10 ounce. Inside is pretty roomy. I can fit quite a lot in there invluding 2 32 ounce bottles. Lunch. Snacks. My kindle.

There is no water bottle pocket but I can fit my reusable water bottle in the main pocket even with a laptop and a notebook.

Absolutely - you slip it in a stretchy mesh pocket that's inside the zippered side pouch, and then there's a stretchy lanyard you can slip over the top of the bottle and tighten for total security. I always have one with me. The maker's website has a video that demonstrates this and other features. I really love this bag, have it with me in China right now. A 16 oz bottle fits fine

How big is a 17oz bottle? It's very roomy, but not big enough for a water bottle really...and it's pretty thin so I wouldn't try to put food or fruit in it either. I use it for my wallet and knife and cellphone when I'm hiking.

Yes, plenty of room! I can fit my toddler's sippy cup or 2 small water bottles in 1 pocket.

There is no official water pocket but if you unzip the side pocket it can work to hold water bottle.

I can fit the tall skinny child camelbak water bottle in the side pockets. so the bottle pockets are pretty big and stretchy.

No. There is one long pocket that will fit a water bottle or a rolled up script, two smaller pouches with velcro flaps that will fit an iPhone or MP3 player, and a zippered pocket on the bottom that's about 6 inches wide and 5 inches tall.

you can fit a 32 ounce water bottle in it with the top on length wise, but you if you stand it up with the top on it will not zip. i love this bag. it fits everything i need in it for lunch the outside pocket is deep and secure to carry anything. i would highly recommend this bag. it keeps everything cold or hot for hours.

It will hold three 16.9oz bottles of water. That's pre-bottled like poland spring or something similar with the same 16.9oz of water. As for bottles you fill yourself, it can fit three 20oz rubbermaid bottles or three Sigg metal .06 liter(20.3oz) bottles. Tried it with a 22oz camelbak bottle to find it doesn't fit. Mostly because of the swing of the lid the carabiner attaches to, and the rubber nipple. Camelbaks, unless you use the kid size bottles, are too tall. Stick with any water bottle with a flat top that can carry 20 oz of water and you can fit three of them in PackIt with no trouble.

I don't have bottles that large...mine are 20 oz. and it holds them fine. I will say that this pack, although light-weight, has trouble with the weight of the bottles on the sides unless packed full in the large pocket. It collapses easily if not filled. So it works if you have a couple jackets or other bulky items in the large pocket.

No, depending on the size of the bottle there is a side pocket that could hold it but nothing specific for a water bottle.

There isn't a separate compartment specifically for a water bottle but a typical 16 oz. water bottle fits in the main compartment with plenty of room to spare.

Yes, the side pockets will hold a water bottle (20 oz or less). I haven't attempted to carry my travel mug, but it should fit if it is about the same size as a water bottle.

Yes there is a open top 6 1/2 long by 5 in. wide mesh pocket on the side with elastic circling the top. It will hold a large water bottle.

I bought it as a gift for my niece so I have never personally used the bag. The bag was a good size and very roomy. It looks like it should fit a standard size water bottle in the pocket but I cannot personally guarantee it.

There is only one pocket in this hydration pack. The pocket holds the water within the holding unit. The pack measures 20.5" long X 8" wide.

You could fit all of that. Water bottles of any size fit nicely on the side pockets. I use my when I travel to and from Northern Alaska for work, and it's been quite durable. No leakage from rain or snow, and no tears or scratches yet. All zippers still work too.
