Spanners Descending Mug

Honour the Airborne REME

A tribute to the legendary Airborne REME who dropped into Holland with the 1st Airborne Division during Operation Market Garden, this Spanners Descending mug celebrates the grit, ingenuity, and sheer determination of the men who kept the kit running under fire.

Whether you're sipping tea in the safety of your home or refuelling mid-operation (office-based or otherwise), this mug is built for action. Sturdy, glossy, and proudly bearing the “Spanners Descending” design, it’s a nod to those who dropped in with tools, not rifles – but made just as much of a difference.

A Bit About the Mug

Al Murray: Now, let’s talk about the Mug itself—this isn’t some cheap knockoff; it’s print-on-demand, which means no wasted stock sitting in a warehouse somewhere gathering dust. Instead, every unit is printed just for you, which is a win for both history lovers and the planet.

James Holland: Absolutely. But, and this is important—check your size before you order. We don’t want loads of returns bouncing around, adding to unnecessary emissions. Pick the right fit, wear it with pride, and show the world you know your history.

This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!
