Brand We Love: Miir

Every second, 1,500 plastic bottles are tossed into landfills and oceans, painting a grim picture of the current throwaway culture. Today, tapping into clean water and getting a filter is easier than ever, so that substantial number isn’t just unnecessary—it's crazy!

MiiR wants to fix that problem (and then some). MiiR isn’t another brand trying to sell you a water bottle, they’re on a mission to slash our plastic use and do it with style. When you pick up one of their sleek water bottles, thermoses, or tumblers, you're not just buying custom swag—you're joining a movement. Swagger believes in the hype about MiiR, because trust us, they're more than worth the buzz.

Swagger and MiiR share the same passion for sustainability, and we’re obsessed with brands who stay true on their relentless pursuit of making this world a better place. Read on to find out why MiiR is one of our top picks for custom branded merch.

All About MiiR

The founder of MiiR, Bryan Papé had a lightbulb moment after a skiing crash. While mulling over his career as a social media expert and the impact (or lack thereof) he was making, Bryan was hit with a realization. In a world obsessed with convenience, leading to mountains of plastic waste, there was a desperate need for a shift. And he wanted to make a direct impact on how we do water.

At the time, bottled water was all the rage, and large water companies were being wasteful. People who wanted to stay hydrated didn't always have other viable options. Reusable water bottles were already on the market, but they were strictly utilitarian.

Bryan decided to create custom MiiR water bottles. And he knew his bottles had to be both stylish and functional so the average person would ditch disposable alternatives.

Fast forward, and MiiR's lineup has exploded beyond just bottles. They've got company branded swag from travel tumblers to growlers, all rocking that signature MiiR blend of cool design and eco-consciousness.

How MiiR Gives Back

MiiR is all about making the world a better place, giving to global nonprofits that tackle everything from clean water access to sustainability projects.

One nonprofit MiiR donates to that Swagger really digs? The International Women’s Coffee Alliance (IWCA). The IWCA is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization on a mission to connect chapters around the world, all to support and boost the growth of women in the international coffee scene.

They believe in the magic that happens when women are empowered—communities start to flourish and thrive. It's all about giving women in coffee the spotlight and resources they need, showing that when one woman rises, the whole community rises with her. Something big we at Swagger can get behind.

And, as of 2022, MiiR has given over $3.8 million, empowering over 200 organizations working across 26 countries. So, you can be confident knowing each piece of MiiR branded merch puts funds towards game-changing initiatives.
