15 Company Swag Ideas from a Screen Printing Philadelphia Shop
Most company swag gets worn once and forgotten. The shirts people keep are the ones that fit well, feel good, and carry a logo they don't mind wearing.
We are a screen printing Philadelphia shop at 920 E Hunting Park Ave. We print everything in house, and orders start at 12 pieces. Below are 15 swag ideas we actually print, with starting prices, so you can work out a budget before you ask us for a quote.
Quick price guide as of 2026
These are starting prices per piece, based on 100 pieces with a one-color print. What you pay in the end depends on how many you order, how many ink colors you use, where the print goes, and which shirt you pick.
The 15 company swag ideas
1. Everyday custom tees
This is the simplest choice. Our Gildan Heavy Cotton tee starts at $7.92 a piece, so custom tees in Philadelphia are an easy way to put a shirt on everyone on a team. They work well for events, staff days, and volunteers.
Tip: Keep the logo small on the left chest, or put one simple print on the back. People wear shirts like that more often.
2. Soft and premium tees
If you want the shirt to feel like it came from a store, pick the Gildan Softstyle at $9.00. The Next Level 3600 and Bella+Canvas 3001 start at $11.22. They are softer and fit better, so people put them on more.
Tip: A one-color print on a good shirt often looks better than a full-color print on a cheap one.
3. Hoodies
A hoodie feels like a real gift. The Gildan Heavy Blend hoodie starts at $24.16. The Gildan Softstyle midweight is $27.98, and the Independent Trading Co. Avenue hoodie is $34.56. Take a look at our custom hoodies.
Tip: A small logo on the chest, or an embroidered logo, looks neat on a hoodie.
4. Crewneck sweatshirts
A crewneck is lighter than a hoodie and works well in an office. Prices run from $16.34 for the Gildan Heavy Blend 18000 to $33.06 for the heavier Independent Trading Co. crewneck. See our custom crewneck sweatshirts.
Tip: Pick one color for the whole team so everyone matches.
5. Polos
Polos suit people who meet customers, and they work well as uniforms. Prices run from $16.14 for the Gildan Softstyle Pique to $19.18 for the Gildan Hammer Pique. The Gildan DryBlend polo starts at $17.32. Embroidery gives a polo a clean look. See our custom polo shirts.
Tip: Keep the logo small and put it on the left chest.
6. Hats and caps
People can see a hat from far away, and they wear it all year. Embroidered logos look sharp on caps. The price depends on the style and how many you order, so ask us for a quote.
Tip: Use a simple logo with one or two colors. Small details get lost in stitching.
7. Tote bags
People take totes to the store, the gym, and on trips, so your logo goes with them. Browse our tote bags and ask us for a quote with your numbers.
Tip: A tote has a big print area, so a bold design works well.
8. Long sleeves and tank tops
Long sleeve shirts are good for fall and winter events. Tank tops are good for summer runs, camps, and days outside.
Tip: Pick a print color that stands out from the shirt color, so people can read it from far away.
9. Ladies’ and youth styles
Make sure everyone on the team, or at a family day, gets something that fits. We print ladies' shirts, crop tops, and tanks, plus youth tees and hoodies.
Tip: Order a few extra sizes in ladies' and youth cuts, in case someone joins late.
10. Performance polos
The Team 365 Zone performance polo starts at $17.16. Our product page lists it for active teams, uniforms, and sport events, so it suits field crews, coaches, and anyone on their feet all day.
Tip: Print or embroider a small logo on the left chest.
11. Heavyweight hoodies for client gifts
For managers and top clients, look at the Independent Trading Co. heavyweight hoodie (IND4000), which starts at $38.36.
Tip: Give these to a small group, and use a lower-priced hoodie for everyone else.
12. Zip-up hoodies
Zip-ups are easy to put on and take off, so they work well at job sites and events. See our zip-up hoodies and ask us for a quote with your quantity.
Tip: Put a small logo on the chest and a bigger one on the back.
13. Track pants
Track pants are good for teams, gyms, and staff who want a full matching set. See our track pants and ask us for a quote.
Tip: Match the print color to your hoodie or tee, so the set looks planned.
14. Softer crewnecks
If you want a softer sweatshirt, the Gildan Softstyle midweight crewneck (SF000) starts at $21.46. The Gildan Hammer Maxweight crewneck (19000) starts at $31.54.
Tip: Pick the Softstyle for office wear and the Maxweight for colder days.
15. New-hire welcome kit
Give each new hire a tee and a hoodie. With our starting prices, a tee (7.92)andahoodie(24.16) come to $32.08 per person, before extra ink colors or print spots. For 100 people, that is about $3,208. Add a tote or a hat and ask us for a quote on the whole kit.
Tip: Use the same design on every item, so the kit looks like one set.
How to choose the right swag
• Know who will wear it. Office staff, field crews, volunteers, and clients all like different things.
• Think about where it will be worn. If other people will see it, pick a design they like.
• Start with two items. A tee and a hoodie fit most budgets, and you can add more later.
• Plan for reorders. We save your artwork, so your next order is quick and looks the same.
