Plan it. Map it. Wear it.
A bandanna makes a great map because:
- Huge imprint area – 18” x 18” – which makes your map easy to read. And there’s ample room to list many sponsors.
- It’s lightweight and easy to carry or wear.
- It quickly and easily folds small enough to fit into a pocket, purse or backpack.
- You can’t tear it.
- It’s not damaged if it gets wet.
- It is multi-functional. It’s a map, but can also be a sweatband, a towel, a placemat or a wash cloth.
- Because it has useful information people will keep it. That means
they keep your logo, your web address, your contact information.

How to make the best MapWear™ map!
Where do you get your map?
- Who at your company would have a map of your grounds? The security or engineering department is a good place to start.
- Does your company have a flyer, marketing brochure or annual report that used a map? Does your website have a map?
- Would the city, county or state have a map you could use? Many governments make maps available online.
- It’s easier to adjust an existing map than create one from scratch. Is a general map available that can be changed?
- If all else fails, draw a map and give it to your distributor. Our
art charge is $51(H) per hour, with a minimum charge of one hour. Most
maps can be created in one to four hours.
What to include.
- How much detail do you need? Less is more when it comes to MapWear. Keep the critical information; delete the unnecessary.
- Color helps to differentiate locations on a map and makes it easier to read. Consider a two or three color map.
- Don’t forget a “key” to the important locations on your map.
- Big is better. Your imprint area is 18” x 18” – use all of it.
- Let your map do double duty. Include a schedule of events; travel
times; things to see and do at various locations; upcoming events;
safety information; historic information; fees and hours of operation
and a website for additional information.
