Welcome 2017

Colorful "Happy New Year 2017" graphic design.


Colorful 'Happy New Year 2017' graphic with vibrant numbers.

We had a block buster fall and wanted to thank  all of our customers that made that happen. Now that we have had a chance to catch our breath, clean up the shop, and get ready for a new year we will be back to posting (we hope with a little more regularity).

In the next couple of weeks we will be uploading new catalogs to our E-Catalogs tab. There are fresh new styles we will cast a spot light on. And we will keep you updated on the latest trends in promotional items.

Here is to 2017!

Men's jackets and vests with various colors and styles for cold weather.

We just got some great new gear in from Sport Tek, Eddie Bauer, and Port Authority including the new 1/4 zips for fall. 1/4 zips are great for the team or corporate world to transition into theĀ  new season. And all of these styles (JST65 excluded) come in ladies sizing.

Hanes X-Temp

Blue "More Than Cool" t-shirt display.

We have been selling the Hanes X-Temp for a little over a year now and have had some great response from our customers.

Everyone from landscapers, to contractors, to heating/oil repairmen have said how much they like the weight of these tee’s. They are easy to print on  and embroider so we like that!

If you have been thinking about a lighter weight tee for your crew for the summer these may be just the thing.

Spring Training 2016

Varsity-inspired men's fashion and accessories.


If you follow this blog at all you know I have a thing for baseball tee’s. I think because they remind me that spring is on it’s way and opening day for the Boston Red Sox is getting closer by the minute.

District Made and Sport Tek are apparently feeling the same way..except I don’t know weather they are Red Sox fans but oh well. Here are their styling tips for the baseball tee.

Varsity-themed casual outfit with baseball gear and memorabilia. Stylish casual outfits and accessories for men and women.

Besides turning these ideas into high office fashion these tee’s and sweatshirts would be  great for corporate team building, spirit wear, company outings, or family gatherings.

Charles River has just introduced the New Englander Doggie Rain Jacket. It coordinates with the human version so you and your pal can step out in style.

A few of the product features include:

  • 100% wind and waterproof shell
  • Leash access opening
  • Back pocket for doggie bags and treats

These jacekts are a great way to promote your pet store, grooming shop, vet practice, or specialty shop that focuses on the tourist trade.  (Think Newport, RI in the summer.)

Patterned Fleece Blankets..who knew?

Stack of colorful patterned folded blankets.


I really should spend more time browsing on-line. (And Dale its for research purposes I promise….)

We have a lot of blankets that come through the shop all in great colors. But none ever have  patterns. Then while browsing (for research purposes of course) I found these beauties.

Patterned blankets may not work for everyone but they just might kick off your next big marketing/branding idea.

Now back to browsing…I mean research…
