Merchandise has long been more than just promotional gifts — they are an important part of the brand strategy of many companies. Textiles such as T-shirts, hoodies and bags in particular have established themselves as popular merchandise products. But what makes these textiles so popular, and why should you opt for sustainable merchandise? In this article, we'll show you the most popular merchandise items and explain why you should use them in your business.
T-shirts are among the most well-known merchandise items and are an absolute classic when it comes to choosing company merch. They are versatile — whether as a giveaway at trade fairs, as part of an onboarding package for new employees or as a promotional gift for loyal customers.
For us, it is particularly important that T-shirts are not only fashionable, but also produced sustainably. Our sustainable merch shirts are made with high-quality, environmentally friendly materials, making them the perfect combination of style and responsibility. Because sustainable textiles not only make you feel good, but also provide long-term benefits.
Hoodies are also an absolute must-have when it comes to the right merchandise for your team. They not only offer comfort, but are also a true statement that can be worn in the office, at events or in leisure time. Especially in the cooler season, they are a popular piece of clothing that is well received by both employees and customers.
A hoodie with your company's logo is not only a practical piece of clothing, but also creates strong brand loyalty. At Das Merch., we offer hoodies that are made from sustainable materials so that they are both environmentally friendly and of high quality. And the best thing about it: Your employees and customers will enjoy wearing them!
Caps are a popular merchandise item that is particularly used at outdoor events, trade fairs or festivals. They not only protect against sun and rain, but also provide a perfect space to creatively display the company logo. Company merch such as caps are an effective way to increase your brand's visibility while providing practical benefits.
When choosing your merchandise, pay attention to the quality and sustainability of the caps. At Das Merch., we ensure that every cap is produced under fair conditions so that you get a product that your customers and employees like just as much as the environment does.
Bags and shoppers are also popular merch items that are frequently used in everyday life. Whether as a shopping bag, sports bag or shoulder bag — they offer enough space for everyday things and are also an ideal advertising space. Cotton bags in particular are environmentally friendly and offer a sustainable alternative to plastic.
Bags and shoppers are often used by most people because it is very practical and is part of everyday life for many. But remember: The bag is only really sustainable if it is used very often. The quality of the product is therefore important to ensure the longest possible useful life and thus to minimize the environmental impact of the product. Repeated use extends the life of the product and keeps your brand in the memory of customers.
Individually designed socks are now a real trend. What was once considered boring has now become a popular promotional gift. Socks are a great way to implement creative designs while providing practical use.
Socks are the perfect company merch that is equally well received by employees and customers. Especially when they are produced sustainably and under fair conditions, they can send a strong signal for your company's values.
Regardless of whether you have companies produce merchandise for your employees or customers — it's important that the products are well thought through. Merchandise that is not worn, not only wastes valuable resources such as raw materials and money, but also has negative effects on the environment. If you rely on sustainable merchandise, the product should be designed in such a way that it is actually used.
At Das Merch., we ensure that every product — be it a T-shirt, hoodie or bag — impresses with a sophisticated design and high quality. This is the only way your merch will really be used and the positive impact on the environment will be maintained.
Textiles are particularly popular merchandise products because they're both practical and effective for spreading your brand. They are worn in everyday life and thus ensure that your message is repeatedly brought to the attention of the wearers. But in order for your merchandise to also have long-term benefits, the products must be well thought through and manufactured to a particularly high standard.
At Das Merch., your individual merch is produced fairly and sustainably. In this way, you can ensure that your branded goods are not only well received, but are also in line with your corporate values.

Since we manufacture the products directly and do not use blanks from other brands, we can still produce your desired product after several years.
