Recommended products:

Good, quality t-shirts

T-shirts are another common giveaway - but they’re also often an afterthought. Cheap shirts with only a few available sizes aren’t a huge draw. But a good, quality T-shirt makes it more likely that recipients will wear it more than just once - and promote your brand each time they do so.
