Out of the box merch

Being in bands for most of my adult life and seeing some of the standards of merchandise that were on offer and being produced, I had a goal of making my own high-quality merchandise for bands. Still, with not much happening during COVID, and the world waiting for it to pass and life also getting in the way, it was a while before Out of the box merch started back up.

Fast forward 2 years after COVID restrictions ended, and Out of the box merch was slowly resurrected, where I was learning new skills and buying new professional equipment to help get us where we are today.

Some of the equipment and techniques we use are industry standard. From Sreen printing, Sublimation. HTV (heat transfer vinyl), and DTF (direct to film) these techniques help us produce high-quality and professionally finished custom items.

We decorate items such as T-shirts, hoodies, patches, mugs, vinyl slipmats plus many more. We can also source items clients are looking for that we maybe do no stock or they have seen elsewhere.

Out of the box merch stands out as a dedicated and eco-conscious, driven provider of custom merchandise for bands, artists and businesses, offering products that connect not only music fans with their favourite artists but also help those bands, artists and businesses promote themselves with their newly made merchandise.

Initially Founded through a passion for music, our business serves as a way for others to get branded items with their logos onto our supplied merchandise, act as a bridge between musicians and their fans, and also help bands bring their unique designs to life through a range of high-quality, and sustainable merch. From screen-printed clothing and sublimated patches and drinkware, caps, and magnets, every item we produce is made to our high standards and fast turnaround times.

What sets Out of the Box Merch apart is our fast turnaround times combined with a strong focus on customisation and customer care, professionalism and an eye on being eco-conscious. We understand that businesses and bands often operate on tight schedules, especially when events are coming up or bands are preparing for tours, and we’re here to ensure that deadlines are met without compromising quality. Our online store allows us to be able to keep in contact with all our customers and clients, keeping them informed or reaching out to them if there are any issues we need to resolve, making for a smooth experience for everyone, and helping us keep on top of our fast turnaround times.

Our ongoing commitment to sustainability is always part of our process, from our recycling practices in our workshop to using eco-friendly materials where possible, we are always looking at ways to become even more sustainable to reduce our footprint as much as possible. Our customers also care about where their merchandise comes from and how it’s made.

I’ve been into music and played drums in a few bands for most of my adult life and always saw the need for merch providers who provided high-quality and sustainable merchandise. This then evolved into Out of the Box Merch, with an understanding of what is needed and expected from bands and businesses.

Patches, our current bestseller, are a great example of merch we customise. They allow fans to show their loyalty to a band, and we make each patch as unique as possible. Whether a small band, an established act, or an artist
or business looking for something to add their logo to, everyone gets the same level of care, and we’re always ready to collaborate on designs that make their visions a reality.

Out of the Box Merch is all about collaboration and quality, bringing businesses, artists, bands and fans closer together through their merch.
