4. Hiking & Camping Gear
The leaves are coming back and plants are blooming which means people are going to be heading out to parks and camp grounds for a venture back into the wilderness. Help your clients bring along everything they need from home during their next outdoor adventure with camping and hiking corporate gifts.
Outdoor adventures are meant to be relaxing, and that’s why lightweight and easily-packable portable hammocks are a great giveaway this summer that will surely impress.
Having water readily available is one necessity for any outdoor excursion. Put your logo on a durable water bottle that helps your employees and customers stay refreshed while thinking of you. Include a campfire mug to ensure no one misses out on their morning cup of Joe even while outdoors.
Camp lights and tents are excellent spring gift ideas for employees when they head out into the wilderness for an overnight stay.
5. Air Travel for Vacation or Business
Help clients locate and secure their luggage with a personalized luggage tag.
Make traveling safer for staff members heading out of town with an anti-theft backpack that opens under the shoulder pads to protect belongings like laptops and other tech devices. Packing for a flight will be even simpler for your team members with a promotional toiletry bag.
From using the GPS to get to the airport to locating a digital flight ticket, phones use a lot of battery, and you don’t always have the time to stop at an outlet. That makes a power bank essential for customers or employees trying to catch a flight.
Encourage your staff to relax on their next vacation from the moment the plane takes off with a pair of headphones that have up to 10 hours of playing time per charge.
6. Rain Gear
A nice rainy day might be enjoyable from the comfort of your home, but what if you’re venturing out? Umbrellas are a great way to help your employees stay dry on their way to work and are also useful at protecting against the summer sun.
Forecasts appear to indicate that we are in for some storms this season – don’t let the weather get the better of you or your customer base, add some helpful rain gear like ponchos and rain gauges to your seasonal promotions to make sure we all weather the storm securely.
7. Outdoor Fitness & Yoga
Fitness and yoga gear gifts make great summer promotional items. When the sun breaks through those spring showers, a little bit of outdoor yoga is a great way to expand home fitness options. Turn patios into yoga studios and gyms with spring swag like branded yoga mats and stretch expanders/resistance bands. A sturdy water bottle for keeping refreshed while enjoying a little time working out on the back porch is a great way to help clients stay healthy. Set a soothing mood for time enjoyed in the yard with wind chimes.
Help recipients track their on-the-go fitness efforts with branded pedometers.
8. Outdoor Events
Live outdoor concerts and events are some of best reasons to love summer. Help your customers and clients gear up for these events with outdoor-themed giveaways like sunscreen and sunglasses that are stylish while also providing UV protection.
Live events are a ton of fun, but they can also run long. Event goers will appreciate you even more if you help them stay cool with summer promo items like water bottles and mini fans.
Ensure the fun doesn’t stop for your employees and customers at their next live event with giveaways like a 9" flying disc. Don’t forget the perfect summer branded merch, the custom printed t-shirts that fans and attendees will want to buy.
9. Tailgate
An essential part of any sporting event is the pre-game tailgate. Your company or school will be a topic of conversation with giveaways like a cooler bag, camp chair or custom cups imprinted with your logo. You can also help attendees get the tailgate started with a bottle opener.
10. Backyard BBQs
Warmer months call for new seasonal recipes to put some spice in our spring. A backyard barbecue kit is just the sort of package promotional experience that can give your client’s a boost in the culinary adventures.
When enjoying seasonal fruits to keep the taste of spring in their lives, your clients and customers can keep refreshed with this fruit infuser bottle.

Bike safety isn’t just about social distancing, it’s also about staying visible on the road. A reflective snap wrist band keeps users safe and seen while the sun descends.
13. Road Trip
During spring break and summer vacations, many people pack up the car and hit the road. That means your customers and clients will need road trip essentials for their drive like a USB car charger and phone caddy to keep their phone charged and GPS in view.
Wireless earbuds with a rechargeable travel case are great giveaways for students or any other vehicle passengers who want to jam out while enjoying the open road.
Encourage employees to relax and stay comfortable on their weekend road trip with a travel pillow & blanket which they can easily pack in the car alongside their computer backpack.
