In the age of social media, viral trends and influencers have taken the world by storm, and platforms like TikTok have emerged as the epicenter of it all. If you’re looking to follow suit and tap into the power of viral products, this is your ultimate guide.

Let’s dive into the exciting world of viral products and see exactly why they have become the must-haves with their modern design and functionality. 

 

HEALTH + HYDRATION

WHY?

Hydration station, folks. H20 has become the new White Claw. With people wanting to stay on top of their health – drinking at least half their body weight in ounces/per day is a basic requirement. Quality water bottles and distinctive drinkware gets you to that goal in no time.

 

Water bottles now also have their own accessories to wear and flare. Think – a handy pocket holder for your ID + a stylin’ backpack for your cup (that, let’s be honest, is already pretty chic). H2bOnus. Bottle gear is here!

The Iconic STANLEY Cup Shape + Style

Nothing screams “viral” like the legendary Stanley Cup shape. In fact, in one fell swoop, it has elevated the standards for drinkware as a whole. For this, we are grateful. 🙂  The hydration option for athletes, sports fans, and now, everyone, the cup’s double-wall insulation keeps beverages hot for seven hours and iced for days — yes, it’s true. Additionally, the classic, minimalist design and tapered bottom allow it to fit in cup holders easily. For many, its straw encourages people to drink more water throughout the day. Let’s get hydrated!

ZIPPER POUCH BACKPACK

Ultra hip and cute, these precious H20 bottle backpacks are designed to hold your keys, credit cards, chapstick, and any other small accessories! Adaptable to fit 30 oz. tumblers, they are the perfect little accessory for your beverage container to look stylin’ while conveniently storing your smaller goods.

SILICONE BOOT SLEEVE

Designed to fit 20, 30, and 40 oz. bottles, this silicone boot is multifunctional and easy to slide on like a pair of well-worn shoes.  Adding a little fashionable flair along with functionality, the silicone boot protects the bottom from daily dents and also reduces that metal clanking sound that no one likes to hear.

CARRY ALL WITH ADJUSTABLE STRAP

Now, you don’t even have to worry about carrying your tumbler! If you are a camper, hiker, athlete, or outdoor enthusiast, you’ll especially appreciate this carrier. Made out of durable, waterproof nylon, it comes complete with a side pocket to store your keys and other small items. The strap fits comfortably over your shoulder, allowing for hands-free hiking, excursions, and enjoyment! With multiple colors and fits available, give your hand a break from holding with this superb water bottle accessory.
