Know your work environment when choosing your promotional outerwear

If your service professionals are working outdoors most of the day, obviously you'll want to consider durable customizable jackets and other outerwear. However, you'll need to evaluate the typical weather conditions in your area. If you purchase heavy-duty customized leather jackets for workers in Southern California, chances are the jackets will end up in the work van most days, which defeats the purpose of spending money on promotional outerwear in the first place.

I recommend: Many companies offer a wide variety of promotional jackets of all styles and weights, including Stitch America, All Star Logo and CSI Shirts.

Choose your words carefully on promotional outerwear

While you don't want to overload company logo jackets with a ton of writing, you also don't want to miss the opportunity to provide key information. Your company name and/or logo are musts; the location, service professional's name and company tagline are optional.

I recommend: 4imprint has a variety of embroidered and imprinted options available to get your message across. 

Check out other promotional items

Choosing to customize jackets for your business is just the tip of the iceberg. You can really put your imprint on anything, from shirts and other apparel to pens and other office supplies.

I recommend: Total Promotions Inc. has promotional outwear as well as flashlights, bags, tools, caps, letter openers and much more. Branders is another great source for branding just about any item you can think of.  

Show that you're part of a team with customized varsity jackets

Customized letterman jackets make great gifts for your sports fan clients. It's also a great way to bring your office team together.

I recommend: Buy customized team jackets from Stewart & Strauss or United Sport Apparel.
