SOBO’s Top 10 Most Memorable Water Bottle Options

By Dean Schwartz (SWAG Master): When most people think about SWAG they immediately think of water bottles. And it makes sense! Water bottles are needed by everybody, they’re lightweight, and easy to transport so you see them everywhere – at gyms, parks, events – all furthering brand exposure and awareness. People in our office use their water bottles so much that they might as well be labeled our  “adult blankets”.

Since water bottles continue to be listed among the most popular and effective promotional products in America, most businesses will notice this fact at the top of a simple Google search, slap a logo on a generic bottle, and call it a day. But you’re wasting money if you’re still doing this in 2023. 

The key to branding water bottles now is to make sure they’re memorable and, above all else, useful. Most people have seen and used countless reusable water bottles by now, so they’re all essentially water bottle critics. The right spout, ergonomic handle, or memorable feature can make all of the difference between being another bottle at the bottom of a trash heap and a prized gift that rarely leaves the recipient’s sight.

At SOBO, we’ve tested more water bottles than you can imagine and we know what will be effective. Our SWAG Experts were sick of seeing good brands waste money on bad bottles, so we did what we do best. Scroll below for a list of our top 10 favorite water bottles for 2023.
