Every guy needs a good supply of can coolies if they plan on hosting any parties or events. Customizing your own can coolies is an inexpensive and fun way to add some personality to your gathering. You can select the colors, designs, fonts, and logos that best represent you and your event. These are perfect for tailgating, picnics, camping trips or just chilling at home.
Can coolies can be made from a variety of materials including neoprene, foam, and fabric, and are designed to keep your beverage cold for longer. Plus there’s the added bonus of not having to worry about any condensation or water rings on the table. You can shop here for can koozies online and get them printed with your own custom design. You can even find companies that will print on the koozies themselves, so you don’t need to worry about sticky transfer paper.
Prices vary depending on the number of coolies you order and the complexity of the design. It’s also worth noting that some vendors offer discounts for bulk orders. If you’re looking to really impress your guests, then custom can coolies are the perfect gift!
