Custom Trading Pins

How to specify custom trading pins for production.

Pin trading is a tradition at youth baseball and softball tournaments — teams design a pin for the season and trade with opponents, so the goal is a pin that stands out on the lanyard. That means bigger sizes, bold soft-enamel color, and eye-catching add-ons.

The popular upgrades all attach to the same base pin: glitter enamel for sparkle, a spinner or slider element that moves, a dangler hanging below the main pin, a bobble-head, or blinking LEDs for night games. Dyed-black plating makes the colors pop and is a trading-pin favorite.

Timing is everything before a season or a Cooperstown trip — send your artwork early and we’ll turn a sample in 5-7 days and bulk in about three weeks, with rush options when the schedule is tight. Free design help to convert a team logo into a trade-ready pin.
