NEIGHBORHOOD collaborated with River drinkware to create a fresh take on the latter brand's popular 'Wallmug Demita,' resulting in a series of lightweight branded travel mugs that can maintain drink temperatures that range anywhere from -40 degrees to 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

The cups come in [two different color variations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/podio-cup), and both sport the words "WHO DARES WINS" in large letters on the side. On the mustard yellow version, these words appear in black, while the cup with a black base features them in white so that they pop out.

Due to their impressive [insulating capability](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/temperature-control-smart-mug), the branded travel mugs are perfect for any season, as they can keep iced coffees cold throughout a humid day, and hot drinks warm throughout a frigid one.
