These KeepCups are a splendid innovation, I always think it is an insult to good coffee to see the disposable cups carelessly discarded

I have one of them and they are awesome! They dont smell or give a funny taste to your tee or coffee! Coffee doesnt leave stain in them either! very nice to drink with!  They should be mandatory! :-)
Those new colours are very funky! I like the retro black green and orange one!

My fav colour combo is harking back to the 80s and my misspent youff - white cup, grey band, pink top, and the plug is white as well.  I also liked the Spring and Guava colour combinations - I need some pink in this house of boys (even the dog is a bloke!!).

Gemma
 
Thu January 26, 2012 @ 08:18 PM
I already have one and looove it, but I really want one for my boyfriend but can't find any in town!

So.. I'm thinking black cup, soft charcoal lid, warm grey band and a black plug to keep it manly, but sophisticated!

I just had great fun making my own in my chosen colours.  Then I could spin it 360 degrees, separate the parts...such fun.  Great KeepCup, fabulous, a brilliant idea, love that you can chose from the colours of the rainbow & more.

Sara Templeton
 
Thu January 26, 2012 @ 08:38 PM
Gosh - a coffee-brown cup with sky-blue band and white lid with a sky-blue plug - just the thing to grab my coffe in when Upshot (fairtrade coffee in Heathcote, Chch) opens again in a few weeks. They're just about finished converting a 20ft container so we can have our local brew back! - No, wait... a sky-blue cup with white band and green lid with blue plug... oh help, I can't decide!!!!
Alison

I love love the snazzy Black with orange and green stripes woohoo spunky. I also think cafe's are super who give you a lil 50c off your hot drink when you buy with these cups - great to keep the encouragement out there
Joanna Kusserow
 
Thu January 26, 2012 @ 09:14 PM
Definitely the Spring option, with my, and my partners favourite colours, I smile just looking at it!

I work in an Auckland espresso bar and always give extra chocolate covered coffee beans to people who bring along their keep cups! I can't understand why more coffee (and chai, hot chocolate...!) drinkers don't get into it. Hopefully that will change soon and we can cut down on nasty takeaway cups.
Louana

Bridget
 
Thu January 26, 2012 @ 09:26 PM
My daughters favourite colours are pink and orange so it would have to be an orange cup, pink band and then a red lid (my fav colour).  Saw the new espresso/fluffy size cups the other day at Queenie's in Auckland. So very cute...what a great idea.
Karen
 
Thu January 26, 2012 @ 09:28 PM
The cup and plug in Black and the band and lid in Royal Purple. That would suit me fine. :)
Linda Buckley
 
Thu January 26, 2012 @ 09:28 PM
I love warm grey cup, aqua blue band and plug and electric blue lid. How could I miss that being filled in my favourite cafe?
Lucy
 
Thu January 26, 2012 @ 09:31 PM
What a great idea-hmm what would suit a flat white to go? Brown cup, white lid and a blue band!

Thu January 26, 2012 @ 10:02 PM
Ohh so loving a good coffee, inside and out!
I would choose Fresh green lid, fuchsia band, purple cup and aqua blue plug. What a great way to brighten up a dull morning!
Gabrielle
 
Thu January 26, 2012 @ 10:19 PM
Loving  the thought of some stripes to adorn my coffee... royal purple plug...fresh green lid...raspberry band...fuschia cup colour.  And delighted to hear that 'Upshot' are making a return in Heathcote! Will be on the look out for them.
Tash
 
Thu January 26, 2012 @ 10:25 PM
I'd never lose a Royal Purple cup with an Electric Blue band topped off by a Fresh Green lid with a Fuschia lid.
My in home kids are forever helping me find my travel mug in the morning before we head out for our activities and this would make finding it soooo much easier.
Picking a combination of colours was pretty tough but I think this describes me without words.......Out there and kooky!
Pamela Cregeen
 
Thu January 26, 2012 @ 10:30 PM
It's got to be Fog for me - black cup and plug, soft charcoal band and lid.  The Keep Cup is sure to replace disposables in the not too distant future.
Julian
 
Thu January 26, 2012 @ 10:52 PM

Forest green band and plug, silver brown lid and warm grey cup. Woodland colours to remind me of mother earth and that by drinking my delicious coffee out of this, I am helping to preserve her!
Julieann
 
Fri January 27, 2012 @ 06:16 AM
I love all the colours and I couldnt make my 1 hour drive to work without my daily fix, and what better way to drink this that from a KeepCup!  They are totally awesome!

Fri January 27, 2012 @ 08:14 AM
Wow, I had no idea you could create such stunning vessels, what a gorgeous palette to choose from, KeepCup have outdone themselves! Anyway, I'd have a trim flat white thrown into a big cup of fuschia with a splash of pink on the band, a royal purple lid and a pink plug.
Scrumptious.
Sherie
 
Fri January 27, 2012 @ 08:15 AM

Annabelle
 
Fri January 27, 2012 @ 08:45 AM

A bright coloured simple design is for me with a Royal Purple cup and lid with Aqua blue for the band and plug. Vice Versa would also be good if the cup and lid were available in aqua.

I need extra small cups for my tamariki - they are jealous of my husband and my keep cups, and want some for their fluffies. So I choose a white lid, yellow gold plug, dark chocolate cup and orange band for some classic 1970s colours. Love Keep Cups - this colour choosing site is fantastic!
Patricia
 
Fri January 27, 2012 @ 11:54 AM
Orange and black. Looks cool. One for my husband as he is very jealous of my travel tea cup (he drinks coffee and tea for me).

My favourite colour combo is LIGHTHOUSE: WHITE cup with WHITE lid for the body of the lighthouse. Add a RED band and a YELLOW plug for the light....I love my Keep cups - I'm using two at the moment as I have a newborn baby - great for keeping your fluids up whilst feeding without the danger of spilling hot drinks on bub! Keep (C)up the good work Keep Cup!

Kendra
 
Sun January 29, 2012 @ 06:03 PM
I like the "beachtowel" combo on the website - warm grey cup, black lid, aqua blue band and plugs.  These cups are a great idea.

Sun January 29, 2012 @ 06:51 PM
Fuschia cup, fresh green band, black lid, fresh green plug. Loved playing with the colours to make this up - these are SO awesome! :)
Just started a craft group once a week... thinking I may have to get one of these to take with me each week... or maybe I need a different colour for each week? Ahhh I can see this becoming an addiction!!

I love the SPRING colour combo with the pink, white & light green. These are fantastic, perfect for taking my coffee on the go (fell in love with my stove top perk all over again so coffees every morning!)
Jane Stone
 
Fri February 03, 2012 @ 01:08 PM
Fabulous idea! I selected my own colours and opted for the blues and greens of the ocean.  Having a coffee for me is like a mini holiday, so what better colours than that of the ocean.

I LOVE these cups.  Mine is a permanent item in my handbag (except when it is in use!), and they are great for kids to have hot chocolates in (no spills!).
Favourite colour combos for my environmentally conscious kids:
6 year old likes Guava
4 year old likes Spring
I love the new colours but would still build my own :)
Cup silver grey, band fresh green, lid royal purple, plug fuschia

This is perfect timing as my partner broke my last reusable cup, so I need a new one.  I'd love one in these colours:  Dark Chocolate cup, Fresh green lid and band and Aqua blue cap

These are the colours of my new logo, so that every time I had my coffee I'd think of my new business, Dragonfly Communications, and smile.

This would be for my husband: silver grey cup, orange band, soft charcoal lid & plug:
– the silver grey cup, he has really good style, but is quietly conservative in his taste
– the orange band so it is easy to find on his desk, which is stacked full of books
– the soft charcoal lid & plug so they don't stain from his very strong coffee, and because at work he is more likely to 'rinse' it, rather than 'wash' it ;-)

I drink green tea or chai mostly, so I would go for a white cup, with charcoal grey lid and plug (I would most likely temporarily loose it to my husband, so it might as well be the same as his!), with a eucalypt green band, to remind me of my spring & summer garden in the winter.

My cup has a purple plug, yellow lid, blue band and red cup.  I love lots of the colour combinations and think the concept of a 'keep cup' is fantastic.  I hope coffee and tea drinkers take the challenge to stop throwing away their cups and reuse a 'keep cup'.  I'm sold on them - now off to get one :)
