Sports reviews of 512 G.I. Type Stainless Steel Canteen Cup
Customer Review: Good cup for field work.
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I bought this cup to pair it with this canteen Rothco 422 G.I. Style Aluminum Canteen and Cover, 1 Quart.
It matches perfectly the canteen, both can be carried in the same package.
This cup is stainless steel and so far I haven't had any problems with it. It has worked well for me. The butterfly handle is really handy for grabbing the cup as you would grab a coffe cup by the handle, though grabbing it as if it didn't have them is not a problem either, but the handles come in handy (pun intended) if you need to boil water or cook something with it, you could burn your hands if you grab the cup.
The cup's intake capacity is 500 mililiters give or take, if I fill it using my canteen, I still have some water left in the canteen. Good to ration water supply when you are far from a water source or you need to share water with someone else and you don't want them to drink from your canteen directly.
It's resistant, I've packed it for countless trips to the outdoors and it doesn't have any dents despite the fact it has to share space with lenses, cameras and other stuff I sometimes pack.
One aspect that wonders me of this cup but I can't explain is the fact that it dries quickly. I don't know if it's the weather here or the material or what, but whenever I drink water in it, it dries fast, sometimes less than five minutes, with no traces that a liquid was ever there.
The only gripe you could have with it is the fact that seems that over time, the cup develops a dark color, mine was shiny gray when I got it but now it's dark gray. I don't mind really since it's meant to be used out there, it's not a jewel that needs to be kept clean and shiny always.
Some people have mentioned this is a military issue cup, and that would explain just how tough it is.
If you need a cup and a canteen to go with it, I suggest you take a look at this one and the canteen I linked to, they seem to be made for each other, since they fit perfectly. One thing though, I have to use the canteen cover in order to be able to pair the cup with the canteen, because if I remove it and just put the canteen inside the cup, the canteen is loose and won't attach to the cup. The cover acts like a kind of gasket.
This canteen will certainly be handy if you go frequently to the outdoors. In the field it's where it shines. I recommend it.
