RUN, DON’T WALK, for these trending running sneakers to be included in your swag collection. AH…yeah, okay. We get it, we see it, and we are so sorry. Starting out the blog with the hardest, most basic dad joke known to man in the first sentence probably wasn’t the best idea for an attention grabber. But you are here now and still reading (we hope). And for those of you that left…well, can’t say we blame you, but it does get better. Like life – blogs have their ups and downs, and this one will finish strong. If it doesn’t hold up to its promise, at least you know we can offer your brand the Mount Rushmore of modern running footwear – Hokas, No Bulls, On Clouds, and New Balances. Are these brands haunting your Instagram/Facebook Ads too? Or just us? Not only are they popular on the ads, but they are popular amongst the runners, gym-goers, the “oh sh*t, I guess a swift walk/jog is the route I’m going to have to take to this meeting that I am currently missing because my alarm has failed me and my dignity this morning.” In other words, a shoe that gives comfort for all, brands that make the crowd go “oooo, ahhhh,” and one hell of a MUST in your swag collection.


The rumors are true, and critics were right – a comfy pair of running sneakers is the universal love language, worn and adored by the young, the old, the work-from-home warriors, the commute crews, the cubicle commanders, the deadline ninjas, and Cindy from HR. Hokas whisper, “I’m serious about my 5K, but also my bottomless mimosa brunch.” On Clouds scream, “I run marathons with no nipple bleeding and company-wide Zoom calls that are only 20 minutes long.” No Bulls have that minimalist vibe that says, “I lift, I hustle, and my shoes support my workouts as well as emotional breakdowns.” And New Balances? A staple for the dads mowing the lawns, the models walking the runway in London, and everyone who just needs a sneaker that doesn’t quit…like your ex, and they could never handle a pair of New Balances anyway.

The takeaway…your branded wearable swag is so much more than your basic t-shirt and hoodie. Adding these “you’re in the club” trending sneaker brands – Hokas, No Bulls, On Clouds, and New Balances – is giving people their mood boosters, conversation starters, and the spontaneous high-five that took someone’s day from a level 2 to a level 11. So do your team, your clients, and Cindy from HR a massive solid – get these kicks in your next swag drop. Run, don’t walk…because unlike this basic dad-joke of a statement, these shoes win the hearts of all. (Now, onto hoping this blog lived up to its promise.)
