What You Get and Who Orders It
Key Benefits
- Your team name season and logo are struck into the metal rather than printed or stuck on as a label
- Soft enamel fill is hand applied and baked to resist chipping and fading during wear and storage
- Rush production is available for time-sensitive events like a 2022 season or tournament
- One digital proof covers all pins so team colours and design elements stay consistent across quantities
- Made in our own factory so revisions are handled directly by the team striking the die
Where It Is Used
- Youth and school baseball teams distributing pins to players and coaches for the 2022 season
- League organisers producing team-specific pins for a single season or tournament
- Parent committees or booster groups ordering pins for a fundraising or recognition event
- Promotional product distributors reselling custom baseball pins to local teams
- Baseball clubs or alumni groups creating commemorative pins for a 2022 reunion or anniversary
Who It Is For
- Youth baseball league directors ordering pins for multiple teams at once
- School athletic departments managing a full season of team recognition items
- Parent booster committees coordinating pin distribution for a single season
- Promotional product distributors sourcing custom pins for local sports groups
- Event organisers producing branded pins for a 2022 baseball tournament or game day
Problems It Solves
- Stock pins carry generic designs and cannot show your team name or season year
- Printed or adhesive pins peel or fade after repeated wear and washing
- Colour mismatch between reorders when different batches use different enamel mixes
- Attachments that break or come loose during normal handling and wear
- Late design changes that a supplier without in-house production cannot absorb quickly
Technical Features
- Die struck relief so fine lines and small lettering remain sharp at small sizes
- Soft enamel fill leaves the metal edges proud of the colour for a tactile, durable finish
- Choice of polished gold silver or antique plating on the same die for team variants
- Standard pin back with rubber clutch or safety pin back available upon request
- Optional epoxy dome over the face for extra scratch and wear resistance
Materials
- Zinc alloy or brass body depending on design relief and size
- Baked soft enamel colour
- Electroplated gold silver bronze or antique finish
- Metal pin back with rubber clutch or safety pin back
Quality Control
- First pin sample checked against the approved proof before the run continues
- Plating colour compared against the retained reference piece from your previous order
- Enamel checked for pinholes overfill and colour match under daylight lamps
- Each pin bagged individually to prevent face scratches during transit
- Count verified against the packing list before the carton is sealed
Customisation Options
- Any shape outline including baseball-specific silhouettes like a ball, bat or glove
- Team name season year and logo struck into the face
- Gold silver and bronze variants from one die for different team roles
- Rush production available for time-sensitive orders like a 2022 season
- Epoxy dome glitter enamel or antique wash finishes available
- Reverse side left blank or fitted for engraving
Use Guide
- Send vector artwork where possible so small lettering stays legible when struck
- Keep text above roughly two millimetres tall or it fills in during enamelling
- Decide on gold silver or antique plating before proofing so one die covers all variants
- Order a few extra pins per team to cover replacements for lost or damaged pieces
- Store pins in their bags until distribution to avoid fingerprints on plating

Compared With the Alternatives
| Stock lapel pins with printed labels | Struck artwork will not peel but requires tooling so it only makes sense above a modest quantity |
|---|---|
| Hard enamel lapel pins | Hard enamel polishes flat and feels more premium but adds polishing time and cost |
| Printed plastic or acrylic pins | Metal pins carry more perceived value and last longer under repeated wear |
