Knowledge and Tips

At Driftwood Design Co., we’re proud to support businesses, schools, nonprofits, clubs, and cycling groups across Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, and the Tri-State with high-quality custom apparel, screen printing, embroidery, and live printing services. From Mason to Clifton to Covington, we love creating merch that brings local communities together.

Winter is the perfect season to boost sales with cozy, high-quality merch your customers actually want. From heavyweight hoodies (our personal favorite) to beanies, flannels, and more, here are the cold-weather staples that always sell and why they belong in your lineup.

Thinking about screenprinting your own merch? Sure — it’s technically possible. But between coating screens, burning stencils, troubleshooting cheap equipment, and wasting hours you don’t have, DIY quickly becomes a second full-time job. Here’s why it’s better to let the pros handle the messy, precise parts so you can focus on running your business or hitting the road.

Touring bands rely on merch to keep money flowing on the road — but staying stocked from city to city (or country to country) can be a logistical nightmare. We print, pack, and ship your merch directly to your next stop so you never run out, whether you're touring the U.S. or playing shows overseas.

Cheap merch might seem like a bargain, but it rarely gets worn — and it can even hurt your brand. High-quality shirts, hoodies, and hats last longer, look better, and keep your logo in front of people for years. Here’s why investing in better apparel always pays off.
