Several years ago I was looking for a hat that was of high enough quality that I would put the TriSports.com logo. The answer finally came when I ran across a startup company called Headsweats. These hats are common place now but 7or so years ago they weren’t.

Ever since this time we have been very particular about what products will bear our logo. I bring this up because every now and then I get the chance to go to expos and hang out in our retail store and I will occasionally hear comments from customers like “is this cowbell free?”, “can I just take a lip balm?” Obviously, as consumers, we have all been conditioned to the free cheap logo’d schwag that is out there. Below are two of the products we sell that have our logo and some history as to why we don’t sell it on the cheap.

TriSports.com Cowbell - as athletes we know the sound of a good cowbell. Too high and it is lame, too low and it sounds like an obese bovine is walking behind you. There is just the right sound of the perfect cowbell. We actual sampled 15-20 cowbells from several different manufacturers until we found the right one. This, my friends, is the best cheering cowbell money can buy.

All we need is a little more TriSports.com Cowbell!!!

TriSports.com EcoLips - Debbie was a Blistek connoisseur and when she couldn’t find the type she liked anymore she went on the hunt for not just a replacement, but a better replacement. We were at Timberman out in New Hampshire a couple years ago and she got a sample of EcoLips. She was hooked. EcoLips is an organic lip balm that is made here in the USA. They are VERY protective of their brand and will only co-brand with companies that share the same business philosophies as them (StonyField Farms is one example). Thankfully they liked our company enough to co-brand. Sorry Blistek, EcoLips is the best stuff on the planet.
