Meet AdventureBand

AdventureBand is a wearable, emergency water purifying filter straw with integrated fire steel and multi-tool.

AdventureBand

Purify safe and fresh drinking water by simply removing the end caps and sucking water through the straw. The water filter can purify up to 100L of water (depending upon water quality).

Use AdventureBand to light a campfire or camp stove by striking the integrated fire steel ferrocerium rod with the steel striker / multitool.

The striker tool has an integrated flat head screwdriver, scraper, and the ever-useful bottle opener. Use the wristband cord to wrap around the base and get a powerful, non-slip grip for tougher jobs.

The striker and multi-tool attaches to the wristband cord

The wristband cord is made of high-tensile strength ultra-light material, and is fully adjustable for most wrist sizes. It’s even durable enough to pull up to 200lbs--perfect for a small bushcraft project.

AdventureBand is great for camping, hiking and in emergencies where you need to be prepared. And because it’s ultra compact, lightweight and comfortable to wear, it's easy to always have it with you when you need it.

The patent-pending AdventureBand requires no chemicals, no batteries and is virtually maintenance-free.

AdventureBand is designed and assembled in Canada by people who love the outdoors and like to be prepared in case of emergencies.

We built AdventureBand to use ourselves. So we know you’ll love it too.

The Project

AdventureBand was developed after a day of hiking around in the back woods, hauling awkward pocketfuls of essential gear. "Surely, there must be a way to travel light, and still have all the just-in-case essentials?" we asked ourselves (and don't call me "Shirley"). This question led to the basic ideas that would eventually become AdventureBand.

Early technical drawing for the AdventureBand patent

After more than a year of research, design and prototyping, a final form for AdventureBand was complete. Four major re-designs over the development period yielded the current iteration. The final, working prototype has been tested in a number of different environments and weather conditions, and we're confident that it will be reliable and durable.
