Sound One Shell is made from silicon rubber which makes it shockproof and waterproof. However, considering the company is only claiming an IPX5 build quality, it may not be swimming-friendly.
That said, with a hockey puck-like design, the speaker is pretty portable and can be easily carried around in a bag or even a pocket, or simply be placed in a bookshelf at home.
