The water bottles are silver, blue, red, blue with pink flowers, red with the depiction of a mouse, or blue with the depiction of a zebra. 'Alpine Design' is painted on the water bottle.

The bottles were sold at Sports Authority stores nationwide from April 2006 through September 2007 for between $5 and $8. They were made in China.
