If you are looking for an extra special gift for someone then why not give them a personalised Slate House Hip Flask. These hip flasks aren’t just for guys but the ladies too.
Hip Flasks are often the perfect traditional keepsake to mark special occasions. They are also the ideal gift for those who enjoy long walks and campfires.
Our stainless-steel hip flasks have a classic design that can be personalised with your unique message.
Don’t forget it’s Fathers Day on Sunday 20th June.
About Slate House
Here at Slate House we are committed to reducing the catastrophic effect man has had on our climate. We believe we all have a part to play in reducing the impact on our environment.
History
From gutted fruit to pigs bladders, hip flasks have come in all varying shapes and sizes. Traditionally now made of stainless steel, hip flasks are curved in shape.
This design was due to comfort and ease as a curved hip flask fits and sits better in a trouser pocket.
Did you know during Prohibition in the 1920’s in the USA, women would tuck their hip flasks in to their garter?
Cutting Down on Single-Use Plastic
Since Slate House was founded in 2007, we have always strived to be as environmentally friendly as possible. We’re always looking for new alternatives to non-recyclable packaging and products. One of the worst single-use plastics for our environment is plastic water bottles and containers.
Our products reflect our beliefs. From our water bottles to our hip flasks, we want to create and encourage an alternative solution to single use plastic. One that is simple and cost-effective for our customers, whilst making a positive impact on our environment.
Throw Away Culture
How much plastic have you thrown away this week and how much of it was recyclable? It’s hard not to get overwhelmed by it all, however there are always solutions. It takes time and planning but once this change has been made it can be more beneficial on the environment but also your pocket too!
Refill Stations
More and more companies across the globe are consistently finding new and innovative ways of reducing humanity’s footprint on our planet.
Cheers Wine Merchants in Mumbles, Swansea and The Gower Gin Company are two companies that are ahead of their game.
The companies teamed up together to bring an environmentally conscious way of shopping for alcohol.
Save On Waste
Director of Cheers Wine Merchants Dafydd Morris explains why we should all save on waste. “We introduced the Gin refill station at our Mumbles store as it gave customers a great opportunity to both save money and reuse their Gŵyr Gin bottles which in turn helps save on waste.”
“It has proved amazingly popular and we have many customers now reusing their bottles time and time again. We are very proud to be the first shop in Wales to offer this service and I hope it spreads across the UK.”
Other Reusable Items from Slate House
It’s triple-walled and can keep any drink cold for up to 24 hours, or hot for up to 12 hours.
Is it safe to drink from stainless steel water bottles?
Stainless steel doesn’t contain the chemicals found in plastics that can cause severe health risks even in very small doses. It is safe at any temperature.
Picnic Blankets
If you are getting a gift of a hip flask for an adventurer then why not team it up with one of our picnic blankets too?
