Custom Baller Bands




Custom baller bands. What are they? Where do they come from? And why should you get them? Let's take a look at each of these questions in turn...




What are custom baller bands

The term "baller bands" became popular from a combination of Nike and LeBron James. Nike started selling silicon wristbands with their logo and the slogan "just do it" on them. Soon after that, they started manufacturing wristbands with famous basketball players names like "LeBron James" and "Michael Jordan". Later, LeBron James himself produced a custom wristbands campaign with the words "I promise" printed on them. 

Where do these custom baller bands come from? 

Custom wristbands all start out as an idea. Most wristbands have either text, an image, or both. From here a designer will take your idea and create a digital mockup for you to see. As long as you've given the designer clear instructions to work from, you should get a mockup that is really close, if not 100%, to what your idea was in the beginning. Once the design is how you like it, the designer will send it to a factory in China that will manufacture you custom wristbands! After your wristbands are finished, they will be shipped directly to your door. This whole process usually takes about 10-14 days. But can take less. 



Custom baller bands can be used for a lot of different things. Schools use them for for fundraiser and to show team spirit. Companies use them to get there name out to the public. Different groups and organizations use custom wristbands to show support or bring awareness to an issue, problem, or disease. Bands, video game companies, and movies use them as merchandise for their brand. The sky is the limit when it comes to creating custom wristbands.
