Anyone who has ever shattered a glass knows what a pain it can be. It’s deeply irritating and potentially dangerous. I broke a glass myself quite recently; I had it sitting next to the sink, when I accidently knocked it into a steel cooking pot that I was cleaning. Needless to say it broke to bits. Trying to clean up every tiny shard of glass so you don’t end up with pointy bits in your food down the line, all without leaving lacerations all over your hands? Not fun. Which is why I’m surprised that I’m only finding out about these excellent new glasses now. Snow Peak have created a line of drinkware, shaped like the traditional glassware used for alcohol, but made of silicone so that it’s not only unbreakable, but flexible as well.

Unbreakable glasses aren’t exactly new, but unbreakable and flexible? That’s rather novel and perfect for travel or the outdoors. It also looks exactly like the real thing. These silicone “glasses” are available in the form of stem less wine glasses, highball cups for cocktails and mixed drinks, and rocks tumblers for straight spirits like whiskey or bourbon. About the only thing missing are the shotglasses.
