Shifting gears; level up your school spirit, office space and Fall wardrobe with S&R Apparel high quality, custom promotional products!.

Summer’s not over just yet, but here at S&R Apparel we’re always thinking ahead. Fall is right around the corner and with more of us headed back into the office and schools welcoming new students with bright ideas into their classrooms, we’re thinking about all the branded and promotional products we have that can level up your school spirit, make your employees feel appreciated and proud, and add fun custom, eco-friendly essentials to your Fall wardrobe that not only look great, but will keep your warm for the entire season and beyond.

With the changing seasons comes new beginnings.


Yes, yes, yes we do. We’ve got school spirit, how ‘bout you?

A new school year is always exciting. New classrooms, teachers, students, and plenty of opportunity to explore new ideas, clubs, activities, events, and sports. And this means, of course, plenty of opportunities to rep school-branded apparel, products, and more!

School is a time of support and enrichment, academically and socially. It’s a time when students can explore their academic interests, join or found new clubs, try out for sports teams and make a positive impact in the community. It’s a place where teachers get to truly connect with their students, teach their passions and inspire the classroom to follow their dreams. Most importantly, it’s where strong bonds are made, fortified by school pride. It runs deep. Whether you’re just starting elementary school or are a senior in College/University, we know that a school’s identity can help shape your own. It gives us something to connect with and lean into for years. School pride and spirit is not something we take lightly!

This is why we love to work with you on all things school-related! There’s absolutely no better way to show school/alma mater pride than with quality, branded apparel, and products. And as always, when you work with us, the promotional design possibilities are truly endless.

  • Need standout soccer shirts? We got that covered.
  • Want matching hats for the baseball team and their families? We’ve got that covered too.
  • Looking to greet your teaching staff with something meaningful? Why not put together a ‘welcome back!’ pack with a custom eco-friendly bag stuffed with a branded t-shirt, water bottle, towel, and stationery.
  • Founded a unique club that you want to represent on campus? Find a sweater style that you love and add a name and logo on the front for all to see. Embroidered or digital print. We can do both!
  • We love a good pep rally and homecoming game, and we think water bottles, toques, and towels with your school’s logo on them are great accessories for students, friends, and families to bring along with them as they cheer from the stands.

Start off the school year strong, show a dedication to unity, fun, and community, and engage your students/staff/families from day one with some of the coolest, high-quality custom products on the market.

Cheers to a new and exciting year!

More than ever, schools need to create provocative, engaging, and memorable brands. From K-12 to University-level studies, schools no longer just compete with one another. The horizon for learning is broadening quickly towards an “education anytime, anywhere” model.

A happy employee is a happy (and successful!) employer

With more and more employees heading back into the office, their workspaces will need a good facelift. And what better way to do this, than with company swag! Swag; Stuff We All Get (any fans of The Office out there?!).

Just like school pride, workplace pride is very real and there are many small, thoughtful ways to show your employees that you care and that they matter. Filling their desk with company stationery (pens, notepads, sticky notes, journals, agendas) is a great start! A new water bottle or travel mug would definitely garner some smiles. Oh, you’re looking for more? A cozy fleece blanket, golf towel, beach towel, gym bag, or laptop bag are sure wins.

Products and accessories that are stylish, yet functional for their workdays and vacation days are not just surface-level gifts, but they are investments into your employees. The more workplace pride an employee has, the more often they will tell people about the organization. Employees may even become brand ambassadors (this becomes much easier when they have custom company swag to wear and show off!). It also increases the odds of employees going that extra mile.

We can’t wait to help you boost employee pride and morale this season!

PS – don’t forget that hand sanitizer! An important part of any office space nowadays. We can customize the label with your company logo and slogan, easy peasy.

Most employees in the workplace today are seeking a deeper meaning, experience, or contribution to society. This connection to the company’s overall mission is crucial for the aspirations and passions of the employees.” – Meena Krenek, Work Design Magazine, workdesign.com


Fun Fall essentials

Every seasonal wardrobe has a story. What will yours be this Fall/Winter?

It may be hot in Vancouver now, but we all know the cold season will come soon enough! Why not get a head start on updating your cold-weather accessories collection? We’re talking toques, raincoats, and cold weather jackets; all perfect products to not only add to your closet but customize with your fav brand logo. And for the cherry on top, we have suppliers dedicated to offering products made of eco-friendly, sustainable materials, so you can feel really good about the shirt on your back 😉

A few of our reputable, reliable, high-quality go-to suppliers for cold weather gear include STORMTECH (waterproof, warm, performance jackets, and more), Alphabroder (sustainable sweaters and more!), and KNP Headwear (toques are a winter favourite of ours to customize).

Trend alert! 🚨
We know those bucket hats of the 90s made a rebellious comeback this summer and we’re not mad about it. In fact, we don’t want the bucket hat trend to end with the season! Let’s bring them with us into the Fall and rock your brand logo on the front or back (or side if you like! We love all angles).

Check out our most recent bucket hat project.

It’s never too early to plan ahead! Come get a little creative with us. We love collaborating and bringing your brand ideas to life. No job is too small or too big. Bring it on!

With 1000’s of promotional products to choose from, S&R Apparel and Promotional Products can help you use your logo to boldly promote your company and brand.


No matter what this next season brings, we’ll be approaching it with optimism and excitement. Change is inevitable. Change is good! And we’re always happy to be a part of the changes and upgrades you make in your life. From school to the office, to the streets of downtown Vancouver. We’ve got a product that will keep you warm, stylish and repping the brands you love most!

We’re getting social! Come join us 🙂
