That tube management struggle is SO real 😤 When your pump tubing gets caught, tangles, or — worst of all — yanks your site out mid-day... it's not just annoying, it's painful and expensive.
Our bands are designed with a clever split in the lining so your tubing feeds through neatly, stays wound and tucked away, and STAYS PUT. No more accidental rip-outs. No more fishing around under your clothes.
And because living with T1D doesn't mean sacrificing your personality — hello Deadpool and Venom fabric options 🖤❤️
Handmade in New Zealand 🇳🇿 for the T1D community, by someone who gets it.

SWAG1T was born from love.

In 2021, in the middle of COVID lockdowns, our world changed forever. Alena, just six years old, was rushed to hospital in New Zealand — desperately unwell — and diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.

Like so many T1D families, we navigated the unknown together. The finger pricks, the carb counting, the sleepless nights checking levels. And then in late 2023, Alena got her insulin pump — a life changing moment for any T1D.

But there was a problem.

Nothing existed to hold her pump comfortably. Everything was too big, too stiff, too uncomfortable for a little girl to wear 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. As her Nana — and a tailor and designer with over 50 years of experience — I did what I’ve always done.

I made her something.

I designed a pump band specifically for Alena. Soft, comfortable, perfectly sized, and made with every bit of love a Nana could put into it. She could wear it all day, sleep in it at night, and most importantly — she felt like herself again.

When we attended pump training at the hospital, something unexpected happened. Other families saw Alena’s band and wanted one too. The diabetes staff pulled me aside and said “You should be selling these.”

And so SWAG1T was born.

So what does SWAG1T mean?

In the T1D world, a Swag is a Scientific and Wildly Amazing Guess — the educated estimate every pump user makes when bolusing for food with unknown carbs. It’s a term every T1D knows intimately.

Our neighbours in Aussie will tell you a swag is a pack of personal belongings you travel with. Also fitting.

And Swag — well, that’s stylish confidence.

Because that’s exactly what we want every T1D to feel when they wear our bands. Confident. Stylish. Proud.

We started with local New Zealand prints. Today we design and print our own exclusive fabrics— because your pump band should be as unique as you are.

Over 300 prints. Every size. Every personality.

From Alena’s Nana, to your family. With love. 💙
