Press Play on Hydration: Montigo’s Retro Reel Collection Rewinds the Everyday

There’s a certain ease to the past—an unfiltered kind of joy that didn’t need overthinking. Montigo taps into that mood with its Retro Reel Collection, a limited-edition drop that channels the spirit of simpler days into something far more functional: what you drink from, carry, and take with you everywhere.

Rather than leaning on nostalgia as a gimmick, the collection translates it into design. Think retro-toned palettes and playful details, reworked for modern routines that rarely slow down. The result is a line-up that doesn’t just look back—it fits seamlessly into the now, making everyday hydration feel a little less routine.

At the centre of the release are three new additions, each shaped for a different pace of life. The Ace Bottle Micro is compact without compromise—small enough to slip into tight spaces, clip onto your bag, or move with you without a second thought. Paired with the Ace Bottle Micro Bag, it becomes a functional mini carry system that balances utility with a sense of personality.

For longer stretches, the Essential Tumbler steps in. Built with a generous capacity and an easy grip handle, it transitions effortlessly from slow mornings to days spent in motion. On the other end of the spectrum, the City Flask keeps things streamlined. Its slim profile, leakproof flip lid, and one-handed design make it an easy choice for commutes, desk days, and everything in between.

Returning favourites—the Ace Bottle Medium and Ace Bottle Mega—also get a refresh, now dressed in the same nostalgic colour story. Beyond that, the collection expands into a broader offering of bottles and coffee cups, including the Go Bottle and Sense Coffee Cup, giving more ways to carry the Retro Reel aesthetic throughout the day.

Customisation remains a key part of Montigo’s DNA, and here it leans fully into the retro narrative. Interchangeable caps like the Ace Flip Cap, Easy Flex Cap, and Ace Spout Cap sit alongside bottle bags, straps, and charms—details that feel lifted from a more carefree era but designed for practical, everyday use. It’s less about accessorising for the sake of it, and more about shaping something that feels personal.

To bring the concept into the real world, Montigo partners with Mokky’s Pizza, a brand that mirrors the same laid-back, feel-good energy. Known for its comforting slices and unfussy atmosphere, Mokky’s becomes the backdrop for The 90s Hangout—a collaboration that turns casual rituals into something worth lingering over.

Running from 24 April to 31 May across all Mokky’s Pizza outlets, the activation introduces the Micro Stack Set, a limited-time menu inspired by nostalgic favourites. With it comes the Ace Bottle Micro Special, where the bottle is available at RM35 with purchase of the set, while stocks last. Subsequent purchases are paired with a Montigo voucher for in-store use.

For those looking to make it personal, complimentary engraving sessions will be held from 2–4pm at selected locations: KLGCC (25 April), Bukit Jelutong (2 May), Bukit Tunku (9 May), Setapak (16 May), and Subang Parade (23 May).

The experience extends online with a social giveaway—share a moment with the Micro Stack Set on Instagram, follow @shopmontigo and @mokkyspizza, tag both accounts, and post with #The90sHangout and #drinkyourway.

With Retro Reel, Montigo reframes nostalgia as something tactile—less about looking back, more about how it can live within the everyday. A bottle, after all, is something you reach for constantly. This time, it comes with a little more character.
