If you swim outdoors before most people are awake, you already know why you'd want this. It's for the people who set an alarm in November, pull on a swim cap in the dark, and get in anyway. The ones who come back shivering and grinning and don't really expect anyone else to understand.
The artwork shows a swimmer mid front-crawl, one arm reaching forward, head turned to breathe, caught at that low water-level angle where you can see the splash radiating out and a warm glow sitting on the horizon. It's done in a woodcut style with visible grain and cross-hatching, navy and steel blue and ochre, and it looks like a vintage poster someone actually bothered to get right.
Available in 11oz and 15oz. Both are dishwasher and microwave safe, so it'll hold up to however you use a mug in the real world.
Good for a pre-swim coffee, a post-swim coffee, or honestly just for having something on your desk that gets it.
