When you want to share your love of the great outdoors with your love for Studio Ghibli.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

If you love Studio Ghibli<\/strong> but shy away from cutesy merchandise, then there\u2019s a brand you should know about, and it\u2019s called GBL<\/strong>. Short for \u201cGhibli\u201d, GBL was first launched by the studio in 2017 as an American casual clothing brand, and soon became a cooler alternative to Ghibli\u2019s official Donguri Kyowakoku retail chain, selling everything from Hawaiaan shirts<\/a> through to skateboards<\/a> and clocks<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now, the brand is bringing its trademark sense of effortless cool to the world of tumblers<\/strong>, by collaborating with stylish Japanese kitchenware brand Thermo Mug<\/strong> to give us two designs\u00a0that tip the hat to Laputa: Castle in the Sky<\/strong> and Kiki\u2019s Delivery Service<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u25bc The first tumbler features \u201c\u30dd\u30e0\u3058\u3044\u3055\u3093\u201d (\u201cPom Jiisan\u201d), or Uncle Pom<\/strong>, from Laputa: Castle in the Sky<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Uncle Pom is a great choice of character for this Thermo Mug, as his rugged look and ready-for-anything personality reflects the strength of the bottle and the conditions it can stand up to.<\/p>\n

\u25bc Uncle Pom<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

You can easily imagine the kindhearted Pom Jiisan carrying a bottle like this and whipping it out to help anyone in a state of thirst.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While Uncle Pom spends most of his time in the mines, this Thermo Mug is designed for the great outdoors, with its 600-millilitre (20-ounce) capacity making it ideal for outdoor excursions and lunch breaks in the park.<\/p>\n

\u25bc It\u2019ll keep you quenched while camping too.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Wherever you use it, it\u2019s sure to put a smile on your face, with Uncle Pom\u2019s indomitable spirit cheering you on from the front, and on the back, some of the handy items he carries with him in the film.<\/p>\n

\u25bc These items\u00a0recall some of the movie\u2019s quietest, most peaceful scenes, bringing you joy and solace when you look at them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u25bc Fans of Kiki\u2019s Delivery Service<\/strong> can stay hydrated with the help of Ursula<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u25bc Ursula is \u201c\u30a6\u30eb\u30b9\u30e9\u201d in Japanese.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The free-spirited, adventurous Ursula will give you all the inspiration and encouragement you need for your own travels, whether they be to your local park, office, or unexplored woodland.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u25bc On the back, you\u2019ll find images that recall magical, Ursula-centric moments from the film.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Like the Uncle Pom version, this bottle features a handle for easy carrying and a wide mouth for easy drinking.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u25bc The wide mouth makes these bottles easy to clean.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Less time at the sink gives you more time for outdoor activities, and if you\u2019re lucky enough to own Ursula\u2019s backpack, which became available earlier this month<\/a>, you\u2019ll really feel like you\u2019re living the life of the anime character out in the real world.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Thermo Mug is a relatively young Japanese brand, having been born in 2000, but it\u2019s quickly become popular with trendsetters for its sleek designs, excellent heat\/cold retention abilities, and fashionable colourways.<\/p>\n

As a \u201cfashion item that adds colour to your lifestyle\u201d, the Thermo Mug is a very cool way to look cool while keeping your drinks cool, or look hot while keeping your drinks hot, and the new Ghibli-branded designs can be purchased from 10 a.m. 20 March at GBL stores and online (links below) priced at 6,050 yen (US$37.88).<\/p>\n
