We all love swag. I mean who doesn’t love to receive, use it, wear it, you name it. People love swag.

The average promotional item search volume is around 1.42 million per month! So it’s no wonder it seems like swag is taking over your social media feeds these days and we have taken notice! So it brings me to our first-ever curated list of the best swag on the internet! Selected by your swag experts here at SwagUp!
Branded Warren Buffet Socks
Yes, you heard me, Warren Buffet socks were actually created as swag. I personally am upset I don’t have a pair but at least we can admire the fact that these do exist. This year’s Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholders Meeting didn’t disappoint with its swag. Attendees received these custom socks along with other swag goodies. Overall this swag gets a 10/10 for creating swag that has relevance. It’s not always about putting your logo on items which makes this pair of socks a swag winner!

Theranos Custom Dad Hat
While yes these aren’t new to the world of swag, seeing a Theranos hat in the wild seems like something that should belong in a glass case. This custom dad hat is a piece of start-up history that truly belongs in a swag museum if one ever exists. These hats were given to people who were part of their blood drives.

Provar Swag With A Purpose
What makes swag so special is not that it has a logo on it, it’s the meaning behind it. Giving swag with a purpose makes it one of a kind. The days of just giving swag with your logo on it are over. This swag goes a long way with its powerful message of “Equality is everyone’s responsibility”.

Fast Custom Giveaway Hoodie
It seemed like yesterday everyone was getting a branded Fast hoodie. Their famous $5 Fast hoodies were seen everywhere and some questioned if they were better at selling their swag than actually building their product. At SwagUp, we had seen an increase in clients wanting to replicate the Fast Swag experience. They did giveaways and had an online store to sell their promotional items. While Fast recently closed doors, this makes their Fast swag hoodie a collector's piece of failed startups.

Merge AI New Product Launch
Mergi AI had a successful product launch and swag campaign that seemed to take over all of Twitter. With the success of their launch, they sent out to investors and clients a branded gong and money gun filled with fake money of course! This custom swag pack from Merge Ai was not only fun but they hit the nail on the head with having a swag that was sharable. They ditched the traditional apparel and swag items and gave users swag that was fun to use right out of the box! This swag gets a 10/10 for making a memorable swag experience!

This brings the virtual and physical world together and for this, these unique swag items is a win. Plus, this custom gold plated Squirrel really makes this swag a piece of collector's art.

Attentive Mobile New Hire Swag Pack
You know swag is done right when people share it on social media. Especially when it's a new hire pack. This Attentive swag pack looks like it was made from a retail store. It doesn’t have the same new hire pack feels, which is why it makes the list of best swag on the internet. Swag that is subtle has a higher chance of being worn and kept for years. Now that's some nice brand awareness! Also bonus points for including Fido! The personalization is the chief’s kiss!
