Choosing Drinkware: 11oz vs 15oz Custom Mugs
Custom coffee mugs are one of the most powerful promotional items you can buy. They sit on your client’s desk all day long, providing hours of brand visibility. However, before you place an order for your corporate gifting program or your new coffee shop, you need to decide on the right size. Today, we are looking at the two industry heavyweights: the classic 11oz mug and the premium 15oz mug.
The Classic 11oz Coffee Mug
The 11oz ceramic mug is the standard vessel you will find in almost every corporate breakroom or diner across the country.
- The Dimensions: This is the standard breakroom size, measuring roughly 3.75 inches tall.
- The Vibe: It is familiar, comfortable, and perfect for a standard serving of drip coffee.
- The Cost: Because it is the industry standard, it is incredibly cost-effective for massive giveaways or large office restocks.
The Premium 15oz Coffee Mug
Over the last few years, the 15oz mug has exploded in popularity as the modern upgrade for serious coffee and tea drinkers.
- The Dimensions: This is a latte-style large mug, standing taller at roughly 4.5 inches.
- The Experience: It holds significantly more liquid and features a larger, more comfortable handle that easily fits four fingers.
- The Retail Appeal: If you are selling merchandise in a boutique or cafe, customers gravitate toward the heavier, cozier feel of the 15oz option.
The Raven32 Recommendation
While both mugs are microwave safe and incredibly durable, your decision comes down to the artwork. The 11oz mug is great for a simple, small corporate logo centered on one side. However, we highly recommend the 15oz upgrade for creative brands. The 15oz mugs give you a taller print area for modern wrap-around logo designs. That extra height allows for massive, stunning graphics that command attention. Contact Raven32 to build the perfect custom drinkware for your brand.
