Ergonomic handled insulated mug

Offering a secure and comfortable grip, this mug is suitable for those who prefer the feel of a traditional cup while on the go.

An ergonomic handled insulated mug suits people who like holding a proper cup rather than gripping a tumbler. The handle gives a steady hold on a job site, a dog walk or a morning at the desk, and the insulated body keeps the drink warm.

Questions people ask

Will a mug with a handle fit in a car cup holder?
Many will, especially those with a tapered base and a handle set high on the body. A detachable handle offers the most flexibility.
Is a handled mug harder to pack?
The handle adds width, so it may not slide into a narrow bag pocket. Detachable or folding handles make packing easier.
