Wrap up Summer with a Great Labor Day Party

The warm weather and clear blue skies may stick around for weeks afterward, but for many people, Labor Day represents the end of summer. By September 2nd the kids are back in school, summer vacations are pleasant memories, and the sun’s rising just a little bit later with every passing week. Make Labor Day special for your employees with an end-of-summer party--it may be your last chance this year for an outdoor employee event!

If you’re holding a Labor Day party anyway, why not use it to increase your brand awareness? Outfitting your staff with customized Labor Day T-shirts, hats, and accessories will reinforce your company presence with passersby, and encourage them to stop by your website for any online Labor Day sales you have planned!

 Custom Shirts for Labor Day BBQs

If you’re having a Labor Day Party, chances are it’s going to be a picnic or BBQ at the local park or beach--somethings are traditional, after all. Commemorate the occasion with personalized, branded shirts for your team. Possibilities include:

• Adidas’ Men’s Tech Tee makes a great Labor Day t-shirt, with plenty of room for your logo and moisture-wicking fabric for a comfortable, cool fit. Pair it with its Women’s counterpart for a Labor Day outfit everyone on the team can wear.
• Gilden’s  Softstyle Ring Spun Cotton T-shirts for men and women are smart 65/35 cotton/polyester blended shirts with double-stitched sleeves and taped necks and shoulders. Available in a wide array of colors, these shirts will do an excellent job showcasing your logo.
• Planning some touch football or other activities during the party? The Men’s Stadium Replica Jersey and Ladies’ Junior Fit Replica Football T-Shirt by Augusta Sportswear will keep your staff cool with 100 percent polyester tricot mesh.

Labor Day Hats

Hats make cost-efficient gifts for your Labor Day staff party and are one of the most-used promotional items. Keep the late-summer sun out of your employee’s eyes with hats such as:

• The Original Max Hat, with its classic baseball hat style, all-weather visor, and premium heavyweight brushed cotton fabric.
• The Mesh Back Hat from Max features brushed cotton front panels and visor with cooling nylon mesh back panels.
