Our Logos Our brand logos distinguish our products from others in the marketplace and assure customers that the products they buy originate from a trusted and authentic source. Proper use of these trademarks can add significant value. Improper use of trademarks decreases the value perception of the brand, and can turn highly valued and respected trademarks into commonplace or generic copies. Altering a brand's logo in any way compromises the integrity of we have worked to establish.

Technology ICONS - Used to inform and highlight safety features and components to better describe our products and their intended uses, allowing the customer to select the appropriate footwear.

Vinyl Banners Standard Size Guide We're often asked, "What is the standard size for your banners?" The answer is usually, "What size do you need?" Here are some standard sizes to use as a reference point.

4' x 2 feet high or 48" x 24 inches high

6 feet x 3 feet

7 feet x 4 feet

10 feet x 4 feet

12 feet x 5 feet

5 feet x 3 feet

Billboard Examples Designing a billboard is quite challenging not to mention its size, there are lots of things that one needs to put in mind while making the design. Unlike business cards or logos, designing for billboards require more creativity and great ideas in order to attract the attention of the people. Since billboards are viewed for a few seconds only, you have to make your message quick. You can use 8 to 10 words only which can easily be read by people even those driving a little fast. You can include the company name, contact information, 30’ x 10’ direct information of the product, and a slogan. Use a few words as possible.

48’ x 14’

60’ x 20’

Window Clings When ordering window clings you will need to choose between white and clear material, then you will need to select a mounting surface type. Before you can place your order, you must understand the difference between a first surface and a second surface cling. When choosing a print substrate, the most important question to ask yourself is, “How will I display my window cling?” Answering this question will help you determine whether you need a first surface or second surface cling. A first surface cling is applied on the same side on which the product is intended to be viewed whereas second surface clings are applied on the opposite side from which they will be viewed. Since understanding the different choices can be tricky, see the diagrams below.
