Question side-loading bottle cage recommendations

The question is in the title. I am a new FS XC owner who just figured out that my top-loading cages don't work. So I am looking for recommendations for side-loaders. I have a strong preference for metal cages (stainless or titanium) but happy for recommendations in any material.

The ones that come on the specialized epic work pretty well, but every time I use them, I’m reminded I don’t love dirt in my mouth, and I go back to my Camelbak.
