The Freshest & Newest Ideas for Your Company Swag from Swagology
The
Coolest Products and Trends from Swagology
Our
first-ever Swagology is in the books! Hundreds of our clients stopped by to
check out the latest and greatest in company swag — all showcased by 25
hand-selected vendor-partners.
The
historic 1880 Trolley Barn in Atlanta’s Inman Park neighborhood served as an
idyllic setting to share the future of swag. To keep track of our favorite
finds and share the spirit of Swagology with everyone who couldn’t attend,
here’s a rundown of a few of the coolest products we came across throughout the day. Enjoy!
The World of
Athleisure
Customizable
clothing is a staple of the swag industry.
The latest
trend in customizable clothing falls between corporate wear and fundraising
apparel. It’s a thing called “athleisure,” and it’s all about looking good
while staying fit. Here are some standouts from branded athleisure.
This is the
belt you always wanted but never knew you needed. Made from snowmobile-grade
thermoplastic (yes, you read that right), these fully customizable belts are
highly durable and made to take a beating.
Mix and
match colors to your heart’s content with these one-size-fits-all designs. Need
something printed on the belt in specific colors? No problem at all — that
comes standard. Best of all, these belts give back to the charity of your choice. How
cool is that?
This jacket
from SanMar is the poster child of modern athleisure. Remember the “heather
movement” from a while back? It led to the birth of interwoven fabrics and muted,
textured color design. Digi stripe takes that design a step further.
The Digi
Stripe Fleece Jacket bridges comfort, style and versatility. We can’t emphasize
enough how comfortable this jacket is. And with three zipped pockets and full customization
options, it’s built for anything.
Trimark’s
Okapi Knit Jacket goes wherever you need it to go and says whatever you need to
say. Want to toss on a heat-transferred design? No problem. Want to go with
laser printing or embroidery? Those options work, too.
This
popular piece of athleisure wear packs all the usual benefits of athletic wear
with the customizability of the greatest corporate uniforms. Just choose a base
color and dig into the variety of available branding options.
New & Cool Promotional Products for 2016
Coolers have
arrived in the world of promotional products. They’re perfect because they actually fulfill a need and get your name
or brand in front of people — especially at outdoor events.
This one
from Showdown Displays comes with a truly unique feature: interchangeable
cooler wraps.
The form-fitting
covers are designed to fit Coleman coolers perfectly without getting in the way
of everyday use. These dye sublimated wraps are machine washable, meaning you
can take the coolers wherever you want without any fear of ruining your
product.
These
sunglasses from Hit Promotional Products combine sun-protecting eye wear with a
bottle opener. Two seemingly unrelated features joined together in a seamlessly
intuitive way.
Sunglasses are
often used as promotional products. That’s for good reason: people use them.
And with these sunglasses, you’re bound to make more than a few heads turn.
The glasses
pack the usual customization options: various base colors, standard silk-screen
colors, UV400 lenses providing full UVA and UVB protection and the option for
multi-color printing.
Customizable Power
Banks and Chargers
Battery
life is the bane of mobile tech. We have amazing technology at our fingertips —
we just can’t keep it charged. Thankfully power banks and chargers have made dead
battery fear a thing of the past.
In the past
few years, we’ve seen battery packs become major players in the world of
company swag. These customizable lifesavers are a surefire way to get your
brand in the hands of people across the world.
Power banks
and chargers were everywhere at Swagology. However, there were two products from
Sweden-based company BrandCharger that really caught our attention.
An LED
back light illuminates a company’s
printed logo, making this charger a striking, yet useful flashlight and
charger.
Ranging
from 2200-5200 mAh, these chargers
run the whole gamut in terms of price and versatility — not to mention they’re
compatible with any USB-based charger.
This car
charger allows you to program up to 20 seconds of customized audio that will play
at the beginning of every charge. Have a catchy brand jingle people will
recognize? Or maybe a brand message you want people to hear? So long as it fits
the 20-second window, creative freedom is all yours!
The car
charger comes with two USB ports capable of charging two tablets or mobile
devices at once.
Looking Forward
We saw a
lot of awesome products at Swagology, and there’s no way we could recap every
piece from every vendor. All we can say is the new trends in swag are something
worth getting excited about.
And thanks
again to everyone who came out. If you missed the event, make sure to stop in
for our next one!
