If you're looking for a custom pin manufacturer to turn your company or organization's pin design into a reality, we know you have a lot of options. But before you settle on the cheapest option, we want to encourage you to consider custom lapel pins made in the USA. While you might pay a little more when you buy American, there are many reasons why it's worth it. Here are our top 5 reasons why you should buy American-made lapel pins.

Five Reasons to Buy Made in the USA Custom Pins

Faster production and shipping times - While you can sometimes save a little money by getting custom pins made overseas, you will need to incorporate longer production and shipping times into your plans. Custom lapel pins made in the USA can often be produced and delivered in as little as 3 to 10 days (depending on the type of pin), while it may take 3 to 4 weeks for pins made outside the US to be made. If you need custom pins quickly, made in the USA is the way to go.

Send a patriotic message - Did you know that 94% of American flags are made right here in the United States? Knowing that most of the flags we're flying are made in the country they represent gives us a sense of pride and satisfaction. Custom lapel pins that incorporate patriotic symbols or mottos are no different. If you plan on using a flag, eagle, or other symbol in your custom lapel pin design, you'll send the right message when your pins are made in the USA.

A wide variety of style options - When you buy custom lapel pins made in the USA, you get to choose the size, shape, and process that best fits your design. Made in the USA doesn't limit you to specific pin types – from enamel-quality dimensional print pins to laser etched metal pins to full-color quick ship pins, there's a style that you'll love.

It's more affordable than you might think - Custom lapel pins that are made in the USA can stay within your budget! Vibrant and colorful quick ship pins can be made for as little as $2.19 per pin. And while you might pay a little more per-piece, you can often order custom American-made lapel pins in smaller batches. Our custom wood pins and custom laser etched pins, for example, have no minimum order requirements.

Support American workers - Of course, one of the best reasons to buy custom American-made lapel pins is to support workers and industries in the United States. Not only are you supporting the workers who make your custom pins, you're helping everyone along the supply chain – from those who build and maintain the equipment, to the artists who work with you on your design, to the union brass that makes up the pins' base.

With the fast product time, style options, and high-quality results, you should consider custom lapel pins made in the USA for your order. Show your support for American workers and get beautiful pins that don't break the bank.
