Tactical Drinkware
Founded when the first shot in war was fired, in times long since passed. 'Trench Art', was handmade by front line troops during a lull in battle or those convalescing from their wounds.
Handcrafted by those on duty, from battleground artifacts, spent ammunition and commonly found items, so began the era of self-expression throughout times of war & conflict.
In this spirit, as a veteran (and family owned business), we now carry on the tradition, by providing high quality, handmade tactical drinkware products, for the discerning drinker.

perfection is the enemy of progress. - Winston Churchill
bottle 3D CAD model would have been accurate to within +/- 1 mm to the hero prop, with exception of the features not seen on screen, specifically the full neck and mouth. The Annie bottle resolved that knowledge gap, so our replica is as accurate to the hero within +/- 1 mm, 2 mm tops. - Bottle Designer
The journey of making this bottle, from concept to completed product, has been a steep learning curve. From learning the nuances about it, the production process, the different versions made of it, (is all on record) or provided by the sub culture of fans and therefore it will always be evolving.
It will always be open to conjecture, debate and criticism, as long as you are chasing perfection, you will always be chasing it I say. "Perfection is the Enemy of Success." - Winston Churchill
So when will it ever be 'perfect' and to what physical, measured, height, width, weight (live model) can you compare it to, in order to say "it's perfect"?
"As there are serveral versions circulating, with no evidence or provenance to the 'hero' model, for definitive calculations; then ours is the most current, screen accurate glass replica prop in production." We have succeeded.
In designing it, we wanted it to also, be our design, and not a copy of any previous series. You will notice subtle enhancements here, a nod there, while allowing us to pay homage to the ever elusive 'hero' bottle of the film. Enjoy.
