The Cheek Disclaimer

Last Updated: April 9, 2026

Before we go any further, there are a few things our lawyers (and our mothers) have asked us to clarify. Please read this disclaimer in its entirety. By visiting this Site, wearing our products, or even thinking about snorkeling in a new way, you acknowledge the following:

1. We Are Not an Actual Snorkeling Company

ButtSnorkelers International LLC is a comedy lifestyle and apparel brand. We do not manufacture, sell, distribute, or endorse actual snorkeling equipment of any kind. Our products are clothing, accessories, stickers, and drinkware — none of which should be worn underwater, used as flotation devices, or brought into an actual body of water with the expectation of improved aquatic performance.

If you are looking for real snorkeling gear, we recommend visiting a sporting goods store. We hear they have fins and everything.

2. No Actual Butts Were Harmed

In the making of this brand, no butts were harmed, exploited, overworked, or subjected to uncomfortable conditions. All butts referenced in our products, marketing, and communications are fictional, metaphorical, or used in a broadly comedic context. Any resemblance to actual butts — living, deceased, or somewhere in between — is purely coincidental and unintentional.

We have the utmost respect for butts of all shapes, sizes, and persuasions.

3. "Snorkeling" Is a Metaphor

All references to "snorkeling," "diving," "going deep," "coming up for air," "exploring the depths," and similar aquatic terminology on this Site and in our branding are used metaphorically, satirically, and/or for comedic effect. They should not be interpreted as instructions, endorsements, or encouragements to engage in any specific activity, aquatic or otherwise.

When we say "Dive In," we mean "buy a t-shirt." That is all.

4. The Brand Name Is Satire

The name "ButtSnorkelers" is a work of parody and satire protected under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. It is intended to be humorous. If the name offends you, we understand, and we gently suggest that this may not be the brand for you. There are many lovely, inoffensively named apparel companies out there. We wish them well.

5. Product Images May Vary (Slightly)

All products on this Site are produced using print-on-demand technology. While we work hard to ensure color accuracy and print quality, slight variations may occur between what you see on screen and what arrives at your door. Factors include:

These minor variations are normal and are not considered defects.

6. We Are Not Responsible for Social Consequences

ButtSnorkelers International LLC assumes no liability for any social, professional, romantic, familial, or interpersonal consequences resulting from wearing, displaying, or gifting our products. This includes but is not limited to:

You wear our gear at your own social risk. And honestly? We think that risk is worth it.

7. Sticker Placement Is at Your Own Risk

Our stickers are designed to stick to things. That is literally what they do. However, ButtSnorkelers International LLC is not responsible for any damage, residue, or regret caused by placing our stickers on surfaces including but not limited to:

Please sticker responsibly.

8. No Medical or Fitness Claims

Our products are not medical devices, therapeutic garments, performance-enhancing apparel, or wellness products. Wearing a ButtSnorkelers hoodie will not improve your cardiovascular health, increase your lung capacity, or make you a better swimmer. It will, however, make you look incredible.

9. Not Endorsed by Any Actual Marine Biologists

This brand is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or in any way connected to any marine biology organizations, oceanographic institutions, professional diving associations, aquatic research centers, or Jacques Cousteau's estate. If any actual marine biologists happen to buy our gear, that is their personal choice, and we are honored.

10. The "International" Part

While our company name includes "International," we are based in San Francisco, California. We do ship internationally, so technically it counts. But we are not a multinational conglomerate. We are a small team that thinks butts and snorkels are a funny combination. That is the extent of our global operations.

11. Assumption of Humor Risk

By visiting this Site, you acknowledge that humor is subjective, comedy is inherently risky, and not every joke lands with every person. We do our best to be funny without being mean, inclusive without being boring, and irreverent without being irresponsible. If something on our Site made you laugh, we are glad. If it did not, we respect your higher standards of comedy and invite you to check back later when we have had more coffee.

12. Severability (The Serious Part)

If any provision of this Cheek Disclaimer is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The unenforceable provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable while preserving its original comedic intent.

13. Contact Us (We Love Hearing From You)
