How to Save Your Swag
from the Landfill

Taking inspiration from Patagonia’s Worn Wear program and leaning on the experience of running our own print shops for over a decade, we gathered ideas and tips for how we think through co-branding, removable branding, upcycling, and eventually recycling. We hope this helps your gear last a very long time.

How to Make Swag More Sustainable

There’s a growing interest in eco swag that has caused promotional product providers to ramp up their marketing efforts. While we’re thrilled to see increased interest for sustainability in our industry – we must recognize that sustainability is more than a fidget spinner-esque trend, and advocate for better, more permanent change. We’ve put together a playbook for navigating sustainable swag.

CASE STORY
An Upcycle Story; Bringing New Life to a Logo’d Backpack via Velcro

When one of our clients was acquired, all their branded inventory stored in our warehouse suddenly became irrelevant. To divert these great Timbuk2 backpacks from landfill, we upcycled them by sewing on a strip of velcro to cover the existing embroidery and then adding a patch on top.
