FAQ - Hip Flasks

What's included in the box?

You'll receive the 6oz stainless steel hip flask with its handmade wool cover, a stainless steel filling funnel, and a black satin-lined gift box. Everything arrives ready to give, with no extra wrapping needed.

Can I match the flask to my dog's collar?

Yes. Each flask cover is made from the same cloth as our matching dog collars, leads, bow ties, bandanas and treat bags. Choose the same pattern and you have a set that belongs together on every walk.

How big is the flask?

The flask holds 6oz (150ml) and measures approximately 9cm wide, 11cm tall and 2cm deep. It's slim enough to slip into most coat and jacket pockets without adding bulk.

Is the cover removable?

Yes. The cover slips off the flask, so you can rinse and clean the flask without getting the wool wet, then slide the cover back on once it's dry.

How do I clean and care for my flask?

Slip the cover off and rinse the flask with warm water before first use and after each use, then leave it open to air dry. Keep the wool cover dry and wipe the faux leather trim with a damp cloth. The flask is not dishwasher safe. See our care instructions for full details.

Is the trim real leather?

No, the trim is faux leather. It's hard-wearing, protects the edges of the cover from everyday knocks, and keeps its shape through cold, damp days outdoors.

Will the lid get lost?

No. The flask has a captive screw cap, which is hinged to the flask so it stays attached even when open. No more searching the grass for a dropped lid with cold hands.

Where are the flasks made?

Every cover is cut and hand-stitched in our North Yorkshire workshop, using the same cloths and the same care that goes into our dog collars and leads.

Will my flask look exactly like the photos?

Very close, but not identical. Because each cover is cut by hand, the placement of the checks and stripes varies slightly from flask to flask. That's part of what makes each one unique.

Does it make a good gift?

It's one of our favourite gifts to give. Gift boxed with a funnel, it suits dog walkers, shooting and fishing days, race meetings, weddings and groomsmen, Christmas, birthdays and Father's Day. Pair it with a matching collar for a present that covers the whole family.
