Cold dip?
Completed.
Adventure?
Remembered.
Badge?
Earned.
Introducing Kimmer Swim Badges — beautifully designed 10cm embroidered badges created to celebrate the swims, seasons, milestones and wonderfully chilly adventures that make wild swimming so special.
Designed by British cartoonist Cookie with Kimmer’s free-spirited personality at their heart, these collectible swimming badges are made for wild swimmers, cold-water swimmers, sea swimmers, open-water swimmers, swim groups and plungers who want something tangible to remember the experience by.
Collect the swims.
Celebrate the plunges.
Treasure the memories.
You remember the really good ones.
The first nervous dip.
The freezing winter swim.
The sunrise adventure.
The swim where everyone laughed until they could barely get changed.
The day the weather was ridiculous but you got in anyway.
Kimmer Swim Badges turn those experiences into something you can collect and keep.
Because sometimes a photograph is not enough.
Each Kimmer badge can represent:
A memorable swim
A season
A milestone
A swimming adventure
A shared experience
A personal achievement
Build a collection that tells your own wild-swimming story.
One badge.
One memory.
One more reason to get back in the water.
Wild swimming is about so much more than simply getting wet.
It can be about:
Adventure.
Friendship.
Courage.
Freedom.
Laughter.
And that slightly questionable decision to get into freezing water before breakfast.
Kimmer Swim Badges celebrate all of it.
Wild swimmer in your life?
These badges are made for them.
Perfect for:
Wild swimmers
Cold-water swimmers
Open-water swimmers
Sea swimmers
Lake swimmers
River swimmers
Lido swimmers
Winter swimmers
Ice swimmers
Cold-water plungers
There is something satisfying about marking a swim that required a little extra determination.
Cold morning?
Strong wind?
Water temperature making everyone else question your sanity?
You got in.
That deserves remembering.
Open-water swimmers collect:
Memories.
Locations.
Friends.
Stories.
And now...
Badges.
Build your Kimmer collection as your swimming adventures grow.
First swim?
Special.
First winter?
Definitely special.
Hundredth plunge?
That deserves celebrating.
Kimmer Swim Badges make a fun way to recognise personal milestones without turning everything into a competition.
Your swim.
Your achievement.
Your memory.
Some of the best wild-swimming memories are shared.
The friend who convinced you to get in.
The group waiting on the shore.
The laughter afterwards.
The flask passed around.
The collective:
“Why are we doing this?”
Followed shortly by:
“Same time next week?”
These badges celebrate that wonderful sense of wild-swimming community.
Part of a swim group?
Kimmer badges make brilliant keepsakes for shared:
Group swims
Seasonal dips
Swimming adventures
Meet-ups
Milestones
Special occasions
A little reminder of the people who made the swim memorable.
Everyone needs a swim buddy.
Preferably one who:
Turns up.
Gets in.
Brings the flask.
And does not suddenly announce they have forgotten their towel.
A Kimmer Swim Badge makes a lovely little gift for the person who shares your cold-water adventures.
Each Kimmer Swim Badge features high-quality embroidery, giving the design a vibrant, textured finish designed to be enjoyed and treasured.
Made to become part of your swimming story rather than something forgotten at the bottom of a drawer.
At approximately 10cm, these badges have enough presence for Cookie’s artwork to shine.
They are ideal for displaying on or alongside:
Backpacks
Swim bags
Towels
Changing robes
Kit bags
Swimming displays
Memory boards
Every Kimmer Swim Badge is beautifully designed by British cartoonist Cookie, bringing his distinctive humour and illustration to the world of wild swimming.
Cookie’s artwork is known for:
Original hand-drawn illustration
British humour
Characterful storytelling
Outdoor adventure themes
Designs that capture personality
Artwork that makes people smile
Each badge becomes a little piece of Kimmer artwork you can collect.
Kimmer celebrates the swimmers who:
Go anyway.
Swim outside.
Laugh at the weather.
Find adventure in cold water.
And somehow come out smiling.
These badges are designed for that community.
