You are starting to see the wristbands everywhere, the most popular being the yellow "Live Strong" promoted by Lance Armstrong Foundation. A few other select phrases have followed but now you can have your personal, favorite, inspirational message engraved on almost any color of wristband.
There are 3 processes for personalizing wristbands.
Printed -- text painted on the band
Debossed -- text molded deep into the band
Engraved -- text cut into the band (not as deep as debossed)
- The PRINTED method
- the message is painted on top of the band using a silk-screening process.
- even though the ink is very durable, the message will
begin to wear after a couple weeks. This is great for 1-day special events.
- there is a 500 QTY minimum per message and size for this method.
- text on the back of the wristband is available at no extra charge.
- any color of ink can be used for the message.
- The DEBOSSED method
- uses a die and the bands are molded with your message embedded in them.
- This method requires a
die to be made and thus too expensive for smaller orders but great for large orders
- the message will last basically forever.
- there is a 500 QTY minimum per message and size for this method.
- text on the back of the wristband is available at no extra charge.
- text appears as the same color as the wristband
- The ENGRAVED method
- no special die and no minimum quantity.
- the message is cut into a blank wristband at the time of the order using a laser.
- the text is not as deep as with the embossed method, but will last just as long.
- there is an extra charge for engraving on the back.
- text will appear as the same color as the band. Initially there may be some light gray residue seen in parts of the message
from the laser process but that will wear away.
- text can be colored in using a "Sharpie" for the engraved method only
but that will not last longer than a few days
(it can be redone as may times as you like though)
This item is for purchasing the ENGRAVED wristbands
There are two sizes available This item is for the adult size: (210mm x 12mm x 2mm) (8.25\" circumference) there is a also a smaller size for youth available as a different item on the website.
There is a wide range of colors in both solids and in almost any 2-color combination. I have several colors in stock. Be aware that I'm running low on some colors. NOTE:
Any two color combo is not half/half but more like quarters as shown below. So a Red/White would more acurately be called a red/white/red/white.

I've been getting a lot of questions about turnaround time. I can do roughly 250 bands a day. I split larger orders into smaller ones so as to fit in the orders for single wristbands I also get throughout the day. My usual turnaround for small orders is anywhere from 2 hours to two days depending on how backlogged I am at the time the order comes in.
