Since the dawn of time, people have expressed themselves through their clothing and accessories. Cave people donned their best leather and fur. Queens proudly displayed their finest crown forged from the brightest gold and rarest of gems. Hippies were pretty groovy, sporting their bell bottoms in the ’70s, too. While sneakerheads patiently wait to order the latest pair of Air Jordan shoes that are dropping at midnight. You get the picture.
Fast forward to the fall of 2020, where we are now seven months into a global pandemic and the face mask is THE hottest promo item in the COVID era. They’re the permanent accessory our faces never knew they needed. People are starting to have standards about what kind of masks they wear. So what are the rules?
Rule number one: a mask needs to look good.
Rule number two: a mask needs to be effective and comfortable.
Follow those guidelines and you’ll be okay. But just in case, here are a few tips on how full-color face masks and accessories will help you express your brand. Read on!
Show Your True Colors
Can one really have too many face masks? In our opinion, no way! Just like neckties, socks, hats and countless other wearables, you’ll need one for every occasion and then some. If you didn’t already know, kids need A LOT of masks. A LOT. OF. MASKS. Be prepared for them to need a new one several times a day, especially going to and from school. Adults on the other hand won’t need quite as many, but will still want a variety to choose from, whether for a more professional look around the office or fun and casual to run errands around town.
Pro tip: Keep two baskets around the house, one for contaminated masks and another for clean ones so the family can easily change out coverings.
Now, let’s get back to the rules, a mask needs to look good—or did you already forget? Your mask is a blank canvas to showcase what your brand is all about and the personality of your people. Show your true colors by choosing your brand design and getting it printed in full color from ear to ear. Not quite sure where to start? That’s completely okay! At SnugZ, our world-class design team took care of the hard part for you and created a variety of adult and youth stock patterns. Fit any style with ease.

Create a Cohesive Message
Don’t sleep on effectiveness and comfort when it comes to face masks. Since people are are wearing them for hours on end, comfort is super-important. While it may be okay to buy some promo items based on price, PPE absolutely shouldn’t be one of them. An inexpensive pen is one thing, but a protective device to help stop the spread of COVID is a completely different story.
