As seen in LEGENDmag print Issue 17
Founded by: William & Julie Yates in Carson City, Nevada, in the Spring of 2007
Lead Design: William Yates (W. Morrison & Co)
Product Category: Fitness Equip; Beverage Bottles
Website: swigz.com
Brand Philosophy: Stands for fun and functional beverage products that help active people keep properly hydrated!
Inspiration: Inspired by William Yates jogging and hiking while carrying multiple beverage bottles containing water and Gatorade. He subsequently
decided to create an easy-to-carry bottle that could hold multiple beverages.
What your most proud of at this point: Creating and launching a product as good as SWIGZ from concept to reality, and we want to thank all those who helped us along to this point.
Plans for the future: We are working on launching a SWIGZ Professional version later this year based on additional testing with professional athletes
including different materials in the construction, soft sports tops and gasketing for the cap. Also working on a hand strap for joggers and other
versions with different sizes and on kids versions
If you could pick a spokesperson for your company who would it be? Lance Armstrong—he could have used SWIGZ while pedaling up those French mountainsides representing team USA!
LEGENDmag – Our 2cents 
After our real-world use, we found that the execution left much to be desired. The seal on one side was too tight, while the other one leaked air—making it hard to suck water out and remain dry. But honestly we really wanted this product to work because there’s nothing like Redbull and water while you work it. We’ll be waiting for version 2.0.
