In the promotional products industry, you can’t just be ON trend, you have to be AHEAD of the trends! Ordering, embellishing, and shipping products takes time, so let’s get ahead of the game for 2023. Check out some hot (or cold?) new styles for the new year.

Sustainable Knits for a Brighter Future

Earth-friendly hats are good for more than just virtue signaling. Take the new OAK beanie from Atlantis Headwear. It’s made of Polylana fiber, a low-impact alternative to acrylic or wool, but more importantly, it’s soft, warm, and fashionable. Or consider the YALA beanie, which is made of 100% certified organic cotton and features a fine-rib knit.

Atlantis Headwear offers the OAK in 11 colors including Mustard and the YALA in 9 colors including Leaf Green.

Popular Knits for Brand Loyalists

After years of dominating the trucker market with the #112, Richardson is becoming better known for some of its other offerings including cozy knits like the #143 Chunky Cable Beanie, #146R Waffle Knit Beanie, and the #130 Marled Beanie. All three are 100% acrylic with fashionable details.

Premium Knits for Price-Conscious Buyers

You don’t need bells and whistles to stand out if you’re offering high-quality goods at affordable prices. Take the #BC and #BCL from Q-Tees. Both knits come in nine classic colors and provide a clean canvas for decoration.
