You know you want the coolest pins that money can buy, that’s why we wanted to throw an idea out to you. Instead of going with a standard sized trading pin, why not choose a large one measuring 2.25 to 3.0 inches? This size will give your pins instant tradeability. It will also allow you plenty of room for extras in your design such as spinners, sliders, and all of your player’s numbers.
You’ll get the satisfaction of having a really amazing pin to swap at tournaments like Cooperstown and the Little League World Series. Once you have our pins in your hands, there will be no question about their quality and craftsmanship. These custom items are rich in sentimental value and personal meaning. That’s what makes them so fun to collect.
Imagine your players walking up to another team before a big game. They take out their towels, lanyards or trading pin bags to display their collections. Front and center is their most prized possession, this year’s large size trading pin. The other team scrambles to pull out their best pins because they definitely want to take your team’s 2011 pin home with them.
This pre or post game trading can make events even more exciting. In fact, at Cooperstown and the Little League World Series, special areas are cordoned off so that people can swap pins. Fans, coaches, and referees join in on the fun as they rush around making trades with one another. There isn’t a more memorable way to start or wrap up a tournament if you ask us. Large trading pins are all the rage!
