Our Story

Swanky Badger, at its core, is about enabling real human connection. Our products are designed to give our customers a platform to share emotional moments with the ones they love.

Back in 2014, I was about to get married, and I needed to get some gifts for my groomsmen. They were coming a long way - from Ireland. They’d always been there for me, so I wanted to get them something meaningful.

But, I couldn't find anything online that was good quality, that was special. And that’s where Swanky Badger began.

The personalization is what’s really important, and the message that carries. My favorite thing about what we do is seeing the reactions of people when they receive a gift that they weren’t expecting.

It’s amazing seeing a man break down in tears. And that’s what we do, we make people feel something.

As a husband and a father myself, I know that my family loves me, but you don’t always get that feedback when you need it. But if you get a gift that conveys that message to you, on something you can see every single day, it just puts a permanent smile on your face.

Our mission here is to make your gifting moment the most special memory between you and your loved one, because we know it’s going to be part of a moment that lasts a lifetime.

And this year, we're taking that mission even further. We now have a platform that gives us the opportunity to make a real difference in people's lives.

Two of our three sons were fortunate to receive critical NICU care at Children's Hospitals shortly after birth. You can read more about Aaron's and Harrison's stories here.

That's why this year, we're donating a portion of every sale to Children's Hospitals across the US, with a goal to donate over $100,000. 

It's impossible to imagine what would have happened without the work of Children's Hospitals. We want to help them save as many children's lives as possible, and together we can make a difference. 

Thanks for considering our products for your loved ones.
