So we ordered a hundred or so of these Ogio bags that we were looking to buy. We got a sample bag a couple of weeks ago and then recently got an embroidered swatch of our logo. We stuck it on the bag with tape. Ignore the black circle around the logo, the logo should be directly stitched onto the bag.
Here are some pictures:
Estimated date of arrival for the bags is November 15th, I should be in Vegas at WMW PubCon then.
Comments
Will the gold blend in too much with the orange background?

I don't know for sure, but I am told it should look really nice.

Barry,
Hate to rain on your parade...but Wife has a really good point.
Sure, these bags are funky..but the real ROI will have to do with peoples ability to recognize your company name.
"RB" without an associated name/description is meaningless.
I know you cannot change the color of your logo..but maybe you can ask the company for a different color backdrop that would better accentuate the logo.
You are paying for it.....
It may not look as jazzy..but well worth it IMO.
Just my two cents....

Judah,
When you get the bag, you'll see how easy it is to read the rustybrick.com under the logo.

Yeah, I wouldn't make RustyBrick bigger, just because people might not want to be such walking advertisements. But Judah- thanks for backing me up again! :) Someone had to defend my opinion with that crazy shirt!

I don't really agree with some of the previous comments on background color/readability. An item like this is really more of a gift for clients or employees or friends, people already familiar with the brand. The ROI comes from taking the opportunity to deepen an already strong relationship and perhaps encourage some evangelism, but there are cheaper ways to turn people into walking billboards. The logo should be readable, of course, but it should also be tasteful.
