The Spring Edit: What’s Hot in Promo Right Now

Spring is in full swing—and it’s the perfect time to refresh your branded merchandise lineup. As we head into event season, outdoor gatherings, and client gifting opportunities, we’ve rounded up five of our favorite promotional products for April. These are the items we keep reaching for and clients keep coming back to—not just because they look great, but because they’re the kind of merch people actually want to use.

Whether you’re building welcome kits, outfitting your team, or sending a little “thank you” to your best clients, these five products are a great place to start. Here are 5 of our favorite products right now.

1. The Soft, Everyday Hoodie

Meet your new favorite layer: the Marine Layer Sunset Pullover Hoodie. Made from a signature fabric blend of Supima Cotton and Micromodal—with just a touch of spandex for added stretch—this hoodie is unbelievably soft and built for comfort. It’s lightweight enough for spring mornings, cozy enough for chilly offices, and stylish enough to wear just about anywhere.

This isn't your average sweatshirt—it's the kind of piece people wear on repeat (and thank you for giving them).

Perfect for: Employee gifts, onboarding kits, spring promotions.

2. The Perfect Travel Backpack

When form meets function, you get a backpack like this. The TravisMathew Lateral Backpack is sleek, structured, and ready for anything—whether you're commuting to the office, flying out for business, or heading into the weekend. It's loaded with thoughtful features, including interior tech organizers, a dedicated laptop sleeve, a water bottle pocket, and water-resistant fabric that keeps everything protected on the move.

This is more than just a bag—it's an everyday essential your clients and team will actually want to carry.

With UPF 50+ sun protection, a moisture-wicking sweatband, and a pre-curved visor made from recycled materials, it’s the kind of cap people actually want to wear. With warm weather approaching, a UPF rated hat will get the use that you want from branded products.
