Hot Logo Gift Items for 2008

The hottest logo gift items for 2008 are all about getting active and getting outdoors. Fitness is becoming a way of life, and as you know, the best promotional products fit the recipient's lifestyle. This is the year to promote well-being while promoting your company! Here are four of the must-have logo gift items for every company this holiday season.

Giving fitness-focused logo items doesn't mean you have to buy elliptical machines for all of your employees. Just start with the basics - one of the hottest logo gift items is still the traditional tote bag. Traditional, however, doesn't mean ordinary. Today's promotional tote bags are as stylish and high-quality as anything you'd find in a top department store. For example, the tropical-themed Bali Tote has a designer look with its rope detailing and seashell pattern.

If your recipient is more rugged outdoors than haute couture, check out something like the Eco 51% Post Consumer Recycled Sling Bag. Sling-style bags are perfect for bike riding, rollerblading and hiking. Opting for a bag made from recycled materials means you hit two hot trends in one - fitness and eco-consciousness.

Thirty minutes on the treadmill will leave you with quite a thirst. Do the environmentally-friendly thing with reusable sports bottles in lieu of throwaway plastic water bottles. A brightly colored logo sports bottle is the perfect add-on to any fitness-themed gift. Just like the sling bag, a sports bottle lets you simultaneously promote an active and earth-friendly lifestyle.

Logo sports bottles come in many varieties, so shop around until you find one that stands out from the bunch. For instance, a 20 oz. Polycarbonate Sports Bottle with Flip-Up Straw is convenient for those on the go with its transport loop. It also features measurements on both sides for those who want to mix up a protein shake.

We've taken care of the body, now what about the mind? There's nothing like some fast-pumping music to get you in workout mode. Portable MP3 players are still one of the top gifts on everyone's wishlist. You can be the one to make that wish come true, and you can do it with class and style by giving them the Onyx MP3 Player 1GB. The Onyx comes complete with earbuds and an armband to fit your fitness theme perfectly.

This year's hottest logo gift items are centered on healthy living and a happy earth. These four promotional products will support your clients and your employees in taking care of themselves and taking care of the planet. by Sharee Vivio
