Royal Canin Lanyard

This lanyard is swag from "Royal Canin," a dog food company.

It's got a thick strap with the logo printed on it. Connected to the end is a mini fuchsia sharpie. The cap of the sharpie is connected to a small eyelet which is on a keyring-style circle at the end of the lanyard. If you wanted to use the lanyard for keys or a badge or something, you'd be able to take off the pen. I would have found this very useful when I was producing plays. I kept a sharpie in my pocket and used it constantly. It's a great way to not lose a pen, since you always want to cap a sharpie, and the cap is not easily removable from the lanyard.

Unlike many lanyards, there is no hook, so it would be difficult to get a badge on it unless the badge had its own hook.

The strap is red and comfortable. The logo is a bit ink-intensive, and might feel sweaty if you get hot. It's printed on both sides, which means you have to have some logo on your skin at all times. If you're wearing a collared shirt, you can put the lanyard under the collar to avoid this.

Like many lanyards, it reaches my belly button. I don't like the feeling of things on my belly button all day, so when I wear lanyards like this under my shirt I make sure to wear an undershirt too.

I can't tell by looking at the lanyard who produced it.

Overall, an interesting lanyard that serves an unusual but valuable purpose.

  1. I've thought about investing in some printed lanyards for my businesses as a form of promotion; particularly as I'm an IT facing company. They seem to be a rather cost-effective way of creating good results when promoting a business or a product.
