Abstract: A fluid container such as a water bottle includes a vessel and lid. The lid includes a carabiner support in the form of a pathway, such as a hole. At least a portion of the pathway is surrounded by a resilient material. A carabiner extending along the pathway has a friction fit against the resilient material, sufficient to hold the carabiner in different static positions, resisting forces of gravity acting on the carabiner. The lid can include different configurations with secondary openings in some embodiments. The carabiner support can be located in different locations upon the lid. The lid can also include half of a magnetic coupling pair with a second half of the magnetic coupling pair located upon the vessel, so that the lid can be attached to the vessel when not covering an opening of the vessel.

Abstract: The retainer includes a coupling pair with a lid portion and a bottle portion. The lid portion is anchored to a lid. The bottle portion is anchored to a bottle. The lid and bottle are removably attachable in a manner opening and closing access into an interior of the bottle. With the lid portion affixed to the lid and the bottle portion affixed to the bottle, the coupling pair can be utilized to secure the lid to the bottle in a position leaving the opening of the bottle clear. In one form the lid portion and bottle portion exhibit magnetic attraction thereto, such as by having one part of the coupling pair in the form of a magnet and the other part in the form of a ferromagnetic material. In one embodiment the entire outer surface of the bottle is formed of ferromagnetic material with the lid portion being a magnet.
