Custom USB LanyardsCustom USB Lanyards have come a long way from their military origins. This simple little rope or cord has evolved from carrying pistols, swords, and whistles to carrying MP3 Players, cameras, and even USB flash drives. Today lanyards have arguably become the most popular form of promotional item across multiple industries. You can find lanyards at promotional events, work environments, schools, and even as fail safes for personal water crafts; such as jet-skis. Yes lanyards have come a long way and will continue to evolve to include many more uses in the future, but for now I will focus on the advantages of attaching lanyards to Custom Flash Drives.

Custom USB Flash Drives in themselves are a fantastic promotional item. They can be customized to your personal specifications; can come in nearly any color, shape, material, and size. They can even be custom made to look like anything you want. But one area we see that gets overlooked is accessorizing your custom USB; and what better way to accessorize than with the time tested Lanyard?

Adding a lanyard to your custom USB drive is beneficial in several ways. First Lanyards come in multiple colors and styles. They generally come in Nylon, Woven, Polyester, or Tubular styles with almost every color imaginable. So it’s fairly easy to compliment your custom USB drive with a custom USB lanyard.

Second, lanyards can be custom printed to say almost anything. The two most popular print methods are Silk-screen printing or woven. Silk-screen is where your text is printed onto the lanyard and woven is where your text is physically woven into the lanyard during the manufacturing process. Both methods provide excellent looking prints, but one method may be better than the other depending on your needs. We recommend using Silk-screen printing for multi-colored and complex images/texts, and using woven for simple single colored text.

Another reason to accessorize with custom lanyards is that they lanyards themselves can be accessorized. Standard attachments include Swivel Trigger Hook, Swivel Bulldog clip, Swivel J-hook, Phone/USB release loop, and Split ring, but you can also get upgrade attachments. These upgrades include a Carabineer Hook, Plastic Swivel J-Hook, Retractable Badge Reel with Lock, and Swivel Lobster Claw. If you are looking for something truly unique, you can add a Buckle Release, Snap Break away, or Vinyl Badge holder.

All of these accessories adds to the overall value of the lanyard and provides customers with a unique utility that a custom USB alone cannot provide. So spice up your USB campaign and accessorize with a custom USB Lanyard.
