What are Lit Handlers?
If you're the kind of person that's always on the go, having your hands as free as possible is always an added advantage. But between phones, bags, beverages and now, sanitisers, keeping everything at an accessible distance is harder than ever.
While an extra set of hands would be helpful, it isn't possible (yet). That's where the Lit Handler steps in -- with its simple but immensely helpful design, it's the multitasking koozie of your dreams. Available in a range of shapes, sizes and designs, the patent-pending design of the Lit Handles gives you enough room to tuck away one small product in the koozie itself making it easily accessible.
As per Destiny Padgett, the founder of Lit Handler's Linkedin profile -- 'These patent pending Handlers offers a type of support that you didn’t even know you needed. We offer 11(and growing) sizes of neoprene can coolers with a handle in the cutest prints! These Handlers also have a pocket built into the handle to help keep your chapstick, lighter or Juul(tm) close by at all times. Now your epic stories can start with “Watch this!” instead of “Hold my beer”.'

Who is the founder?
The founder behind Lit Handlers is Destiny Padgett. Padgett, who is from Buna, Southeast Texas, graduated from BYU Pathway in 2012 and in 2016, began her business, which was originally called LITcancoolers. However, upon developing the patent-pending koozies that come with handles and storage, she changed the name to Lit Handlers. Padgett currently has a team that she works alongside, which also includes her 10-year-old daughter, as reported by 12news.
What is the cost and where to buy Lit Handler from?
You can purchase Lit Handlers from their website. The brand's limited edition 16oz koozie retails at $4.99 while a standard print 16oz koozie retails at $9.49. Seeing that the website lists 13 products under handlers, 5 under handle-free koozies, 2 under popsicles, 8 under totes, car coasters and 3 products under wine, the prices for the same are different across the board.
Where is the Lit Handler now?
While most businesses have struggled to stay afloat during the pandemic, Lit Handlers has found themselves as busy as ever! As reported by 12news, the team at Lit Handler has a lot more than koozies for every mood, but also offers other items such as masks, backpacks and lunch bags.
Turns out, the brand's backpacks have been a big hit with their market. "We're almost sold out of all the backpacks. We have more on the way, and lunch bags- this is my favorite month because everybody is going back to school and school shopping," Padgett said in the article.
Who will steal the deal?
The sharks that might bite the bait could possibly be Mark Cuban and Kevin O'Leary, seeing that both of them do have beverage based intel -- Cuban has 10% equity in BeatBox Beverages and O'Leary has his own line of wines, allowing them to possibly create a synergy between the brands
