On January 13, 1913, twenty-two collegiate women at Howard University established a sisterhood rooted in scholarship, public service, and the enduring principle that “Intelligence is the Torch of Wisdom.” Marking the 1913–2026 milestone, the Delta Sigma Theta 113th Anniversary YETI Tumbler Cup brings over a century of Crimson and Cream heritage into a matte deep-crimson insulated vessel built for chapter meetings, work desks, and Founders’ Day gatherings.
Heraldic Coat of Arms & Howard University Architectural Relief
Rather than relying on a single flat decal, the exterior barrel organizes Delta Sigma Theta iconography into two balanced visual registers framed by brushed silver stainless steel bands at the upper rim and lower base. Across the upper cylinder, warm metallic gold-cream linework renders the official heraldic coat-of-arms crest—complete with the helmeted Minerva bust, shield, blazing torch, and Greek scroll—encircled by twin laurel branches directly above a ribbon banner inscribed with 113TH ANNIVERSARY, 1913 – 2026, and DELTA SIGMA THETA SORORITY, INC.

Where the barrel tapers toward the base, two detailed relief vignettes anchor the historical narrative. On the left, a blazing Torch of Wisdom crosses with an arrow to divide four symbolic quadrants: a trunk-up elephant on the left, the torch flame at the top, an ancient oil lamp of knowledge on the right, and the Greek letter Delta (Δ) below. Directly beside that emblem sits a classical architectural rendering of Howard University’s iconic cupola-topped Founders building, honoring the campus where Alpha Chapter began. A coordinating crimson collector box echoes the crest and 1913–2026 dates for desk or shelf presentation.
Double-Wall Vacuum Endurance from Chapter Tables to Daily Commutes
Beneath the matte crimson finish and gold-toned relief graphics lies a heavy-duty 18/8 pro-grade stainless steel body that is naturally BPA-free and rust-resistant. Available in 30oz or 40oz variant capacities, its double-wall vacuum insulation seals beverage temperatures inside the chamber—keeping chilled water cold for up to 24 hours, retaining ice for up to 48 hours during outdoor service days, and holding coffee or tea hot for up to 8 hours without leaving condensation rings on wooden desks or chapter agendas.

A full-loop matte crimson side handle offers balanced one-handed carrying, while the stepped lower stainless steel cylinder narrows to fit standard car and truck cup holders. At the top, the FlowState 3-position lid combines a rotating cover with a clear reusable straw so you can switch between straw sipping, direct rim drinking, and a covered travel position. To keep the matte crimson finish and 1913–2026 gold relief crisp over years of daily use, hand washing the stainless steel cup is recommended, while the removable lid and straw are dishwasher safe (never place the metal tumbler in a microwave).
