The new year means New Product trends to look out for, and 2026 is looking to be the year when new and old come together. From Pantone's color of the year to grunge-inspired style coming back, we've talked with the experts in the industry and have the rundown on what's new and what's new again for this year. Here are the top 5 predicted trends in promo products for 2026:
1. Ultra Soft Crew Necks
Come as you are! Grunge is back, only softer. Buttery textures and neutral colors in oversized fits that give us 90s vibes. Bonus fashion points for getting them in the color of the year!

2. Cotopaxi Hip Bags
Made from 100% repurposed materials, these rad hip bags come in unique styles and color combos that are a surprise every time you get one. They’re roomy enough to stash a water bottle and compact enough to wear as a cross-body bag. Standout style and sustainability, these little beauties have it all.

3. Richardson Apparel
The hats you already love now have a full clothing lineup to match. The new Richardson clothing line features baseball-type styles with a throwback feel. Modern performance delivers with moisture-wicking fabric and 4-way stretch, making for an easy athletic win.

4. Heavy Tee's
The Grunge trend continues with extra-heavy, extra-baggy, ultra-soft tees designed for comfort and attitude. Ringspun cotton in earthy tones makes this a go-to for laid-back branding with a premium feel. Oversized comfort may be retro, but it looks like it’s here to stay.

5. Small Coolers
Compact, functional, and in demand, smaller coolers are having a moment. This perfect-sized option can hold up to twenty-four 12-oz cans, and the petite dimensions make it easy for on-the-go.
