Are these bottles rigid or can you squeeze them?

Thanks for the tips, I will be ordering soon.
I am under the impression, also, that they are squeezable, making them more functional than
a regular Nalgene. I hate "plastic water" taste.

- way overpriced, IMO... but hey, it's not my money we're spending here...
- however, i do have to say that i did find a *very* obnoxious plastic taste from a bottle once purchased from Specialized, so i can see how one may find a taste-free alternative dihydrogen oxide container to be useful...

I don't believe I would have named it "Crystal PP".

I have been using them for a while, and no plastic taste.
They are a little hard to squeeez and the spout is hard as well but overall I like them.
