and a sleeve having coupling ends coupled together with a handle therebetween, the coupling ends including a rounded overhang, the coupling ends including bottom retention recesses formed within a bottom side thereof, and the shoulder extending through the rounded overhang, and the handle including a handle body providing thickness to the handle, the handle body formed on the handle. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A container sleeve system comprising: a container having a shoulder; and a sleeve having coupling ends coupled together with a handle therebetween, the coupling ends including a rounded overhang, the coupling ends including bottom supports extending between bottom retention recesses and extending toward a center of a bottom hole, the bottom retention recesses being rectangular and arranged around the bottom hole, and the shoulder extending through the rounded overhang, and the handle including a handle body providing thickness to the handle, the handle body formed on the handle. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The container sleeve system of claim 1 wherein: the handle curves away from the container providing a gap therebetween, and the gap due to friction created between the container and the sleeve based on the container being placed into the sleeve. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The container sleeve system of claim 1 wherein: the bottom retention recesses are arranged in an outer ring and an inner ring. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The container sleeve system of claim 1 further comprising: an angled connection further coupling the handle to one of the coupling ends. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The container sleeve system of claim 1 wherein: the sleeve includes an external sleeve surface, a sleeve side wall, and a chamfered edge between the external sleeve surface and the sleeve side wall. ### Claim 6 A container sleeve system comprising: a container having a vertical side, a shoulder, a neck, and a lid; and a sleeve having coupling ends coupled together with a handle therebetween, the coupling ends including a rounded overhang, the rounded overhang includes top retention recesses formed therein, the top retention recesses being rectangular and arranged around the rounded overhang, the coupling ends including bottom supports extending between bottom retention recesses and extending toward a center of a bottom hole, the bottom retention recesses being rectangular and arranged around the bottom hole, and the shoulder extending through the rounded overhang, and the handle including a handle body providing thickness to the handle, the handle body formed on the handle and extending onto one of the coupling ends. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The container sleeve system of claim 6 further comprising: bottom supports between an inner ring and an outer ring of the bottom retention recesses. ### Claim 8 (depends on 6) The container sleeve system of claim 6 further comprising: a recess extending partially through the sleeve. ### Claim 9 (depends on 6) The container sleeve system of claim 6 wherein: the lid includes a lid handle and a lid handle swivel. ### Claim 10 (depends on 6) The container sleeve system of claim 6 wherein: the sleeve includes a rounded bottom lip exposing the container therefrom. ### Claim 11 A method of manufacturing a container sleeve system comprising: providing a container having a shoulder; and forming a sleeve having coupling ends coupled together with a handle therebetween, the coupling ends including a rounded overhang, the coupling ends including bottom supports extending between bottom retention recesses and extending toward a center of a bottom hole, the bottom retention recesses being rectangular and arranged around the bottom hole, and the shoulder extending through the rounded overhang, and the handle including a handle body providing thickness to the handle, the handle body formed on the handle. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The method of claim 11 wherein: forming the sleeve includes forming the handle configured to curve away from the container providing a gap therebetween, and the gap due to friction created between the container and the sleeve based on the container being placed into the sleeve. ### Claim 13 (depends on 11) The method of claim 11 wherein: forming the sleeve includes forming the bottom retention recesses arranged in an outer ring and an inner ring. ### Claim 14 (depends on 11) The method of claim 11 wherein: forming the sleeve includes forming an angled connection further coupling the handle to one of the coupling ends. ### Claim 15 (depends on 11) The method of claim 11 wherein: forming the sleeve includes forming an external sleeve surface, a sleeve side wall, and a chamfered edge between the external sleeve surface and the sleeve side wall. ### Claim 16 (depends on 11) The method of claim 11 wherein: providing the container further includes providing the container having a vertical side, a neck, and a lid; and forming the sleeve includes forming the rounded overhang having top retention recesses formed therein, and forming the handle body extended onto one of the coupling ends. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The method of claim 16 wherein: forming the sleeve includes forming bottom supports between an inner row and an outer row of the bottom retention recesses. ### Claim 18 (depends on 16) The method of claim 16 wherein: forming the sleeve includes forming a recess extending partially through the sleeve. ### Claim 19 (depends on 16) The method of claim 16 wherein: providing the container includes providing the lid having a lid handle and a lid handle swivel. ### Claim 20 (depends on 16) The method of claim 16 wherein: forming the sleeve includes forming a rounded bottom lip exposing the container therefrom.
