What do they Mean - Responsible Mindset

Products that have a “giveback” aspect related to their sale, use or production.

A Responsible Mindset can include designing your business around social corporate responsibility, or in corporate giving to charity, or many other things.

It can also be as simple as creating products designed to reduce use of disposable products, products designed to be easily recycled and products designed to reduce packaging waste.

We want to recognize the actions by brands that have implemented programs and processes that exemplify a Responsible Mindset through give-backs to people, communities and the environment.

Today, polo shirts seem like a safe, conservative apparel option. And they’re so often associated with conservative, country club types that many may not realize they were a bit scandalous when French tennis champ Rene Lacoste introduced his self-designed polo in 1927. Lacoste wasn’t used to America’s summer heat, and the long-sleeve, button-up shirts and (eek!) blazers that players traditionally wore were too uncomfortable on the court. The French Tennis Federation found the thin, slim-cut shirts a little indecent, but practicality ultimately won, and polo shirts became a fashion sensation and standard dress for golfers and tennis players alike.

Ladie's Day Out

Ladie's Day Out

The past decade has seen a marked increase in the amount of promotional apparel designed specifically with ladies in mind. No doubt this is due to shifts in consumer markets and the increasing spending power of women. Today, one billion women work worldwide, more than half of college students are female, and women control more than half of the wealth in the U.S., according to The Boston Consulting Group, a global management consultant firm. Women have more financial power than ever before, and it’s only getting stronger. With more female-friendly pieces in the promotional apparel marketplace, the current cry is for a wider variety of styles. “An emerging trend in the ladies market is the need for the perfect piece that can be worn both in the office and on the weekends,” says Kate Souza, public relations and internal communications specialist for Sharon, Massachusetts-based supplier Charles River Apparel.

Rugby Shirts

While rugby shirts (or jerseys) began as the traditional uniform of rugby players, the style was long ago appropriated into fall and winter fashion wear. Featuring either short or long sleeves and either solid or alternating horizontal stripes, the shirts are made to withstand the rigors of an actual rugby match; while the collar resembles that of a polo, it is made of durable twill with a rubber-button placket. Companies are offering the classic rugby in their online stores as a casual Friday or weekend-wear item for employees.
