Hydro Flask® and Role Model Launch Reusable Drinkware Collection

Limited Edition collection marks the second artist-driven drop through the Hydro Flask x Universal Music Group partnership to promote reusable drinkware in music spaces 

BEND, Ore., Sept. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Hydro Flask^®, an award-winning leader in high-performance insulated products, and singer-songwriter Role Model (Tucker Pillsbury) have teamed up to launch a Limited Edition collection of reusable drinkware inspired by his third studio album, Chuck Timely & The Hourglass. The eight-piece collection marks the second drop in a series of artist-inspired products released through the Hydro Flask x Universal Music Group (UMG) partnership. The partnership brings reusable hydration into music culture, aimed at reducing single-use beverage waste across UMG's global studios, songwriting sessions and live events.  

The collection is available today, coinciding with the start of Role Model Presents: Chuck On Tour, which kicks off in Hydro Flask's hometown of Bend, Oregon. To mark the launch, Hydro Flask and Role Model debuted a promotional spot that continues to showcase Role Model's talents beyond music. Filmed alongside longtime friend and creative collaborator Ky Newman, the playful campaign gives fans a glimpse of the duo's natural comedic chemistry while spotlighting the artist's Hydro Flask collection.

"Being able to outfit the whole band and crew with reusable bottles cuts down on waste to really make an impact while we're on the road," said Role Model. "We also got to run with the creative for this campaign, so it just felt like me and Ky doing what we normally do."

"Hydro Flask has always led with joy. Role Model brings that same spirit to music, and our partnership was a natural fit," said Larry Witt, Hydro Flask President. "Since launching our partnership with UMG, we've seen a strong response from fans and artists. Our new campaign with Role Model shows that reusables can be part of everyday life, and that making a positive impact can be simple, easy, and even a little fun."

Role Model x Hydro Flask Collection
The Limited Edition collection includes eight Hydro Flask bottles, selected and designed in partnership with Role Model. Colors and printed or engraved graphic elements throughout the collection draw from the visual identity of Chuck Timely & The Hourglass.
