As its name suggests, the Shotshell thermal bottle is a vacuum flask in the shape of a shotgun shell. It's double-walled, has a rust proof 18/8 stainless steel exterior and has a "one touch" stopper for easy opening and closing. The Shotshell also comes in two types: 12 gauge and 20 gauge. With the 12 gauge Shotshell thermal bottle, you can choose between a red, black or green base, while the 20 gauge version comes in either a black or yellow base. The Shotshell thermal bottle is a sure-fire way to start a conversation the next time you go hunting with friends. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 11% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Shotshell Thermal Bottle:** The unique shotgun shell-shaped flask presents an opportunity for novelty drinkware and gift manufacturers to tap into the interests of gun enthusiasts and hunters. - **Vacuum Flask Innovation:** There is a potential for disruption in the vacuum flask industry by introducing unconventional shapes and designs, like the shotgun shell-inspired flask. - **Conversation Starter Drinkware:** Creating conversation-starter drinkware products can be a lucrative venture, engaging with niche markets such as hunting and shooting enthusiasts. ### Where This Applies - **Drinkware Manufacturing:** Companies manufacturing drinkware can explore the production of innovative flask designs, targeting hobbyists and collectors who appreciate unique pieces like the shotgun shell flask. - **Giftware Manufacturing:** Giftware manufacturers have an opportunity to create novelty items that appeal to gun enthusiasts, hunters, or those looking for unique gifts for special occasions. - **Outdoor Sporting Goods Retail:** Outdoor sporting goods retailers can add the shotgun shell flask to their product offerings, attracting customers who are looking for functional yet interesting accessories for their hunting or outdoor adventures. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Minimalist Metallic EDC Flasks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corkcicle-cool-flask.md) - [Cultural Heritage-Inspired Vacuum Flasks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heirloom-thermos.md) - [Stylish Dual-Opening Water Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stanley-allday-slim-bottle.md) - [Leakproof Adventurer Flasks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yeti-flask.md) - [Self-Heating Drink Flasks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kimos-vacuum-flask.md) - [Long-Lasting Smart Flasks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xanh.md) - [Hyper-Durable Hydration Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hydro-flask-sport-bottle.md) - [Ultra-Customizable Water Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunnies-flask.md) - [Handcrafted Collaboration Flasks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shinola-x-vermont-copper-flask.md)
