GoToob+ Travel Bottle / Humangear
The GoToob is the squeezable silicone bottle that replaced the hard, cracking travel bottles that never quite emptied. Its food-grade silicone body squeezes to dispense and springs back, giving up the last of a shampoo or lotion through a one-way valve that seals against leaks, and it packs down where a rigid bottle wastes space. The current GoToob+ adds a LoopLock, a collar that twists to lock the cap against accidental opening and doubles as a loop to hang or clip it, plus a self-standing base, a wide mouth for filling and cleaning, and a textured panel to label the contents. It comes in TSA-approved sizes up to 100ml. It suits the traveller who refills rather than rebuys miniatures, and accepts that carry-on rules cap each bottle at a modest volume.
Design intent
- +The soft silicone body is the founding idea: it squeezes to push product out and springs back, dispensing through a one-way valve that resists leaks and emptying almost completely, while packing down in a way a rigid bottle cannot, which is why it displaced hard plastic travel bottles.
- +The GoToob+ generation solves the travel bottle's real failure, leaking loose in a bag: the LoopLock collar twists to lock the cap shut and doubles as a hanging or clipping loop, and a self-standing base, wide mouth and writable label panel address filling, cleaning and identifying it.

Trade-offs
- -Carry-on liquid rules cap the largest airline-legal size at 100ml, so it is sized for toiletries in hand luggage rather than longer stays, and a soft bottle holds less than it appears and needs refilling on extended trips.
- -It costs considerably more than generic silicone bottles, and silicone can gradually retain colour or scent from strongly pigmented or fragranced products, with the valve and cap the parts that wear first.
