In my opinion the Lanyard is one of the lesser appreciated members of the Spreadshirt assortment. Like the sweaty uncle, with the slight drinking problem, often left uninvited to family bbq’s. My opinion of the lanyard changed when we made some as part of a sponsorship of the Leipzig music event Popup.
Music genre’s become increasingly more ridiculous by the week it seems, every genre must involve post, neo, core, progressive etc etc, so we made up a load and put them on the lanyard. We had a really good response, it was a nice talking point and the lanyard still proudly rests in my wallet.
So lets take a moment to champion the humble lanyard, without which finding your keys would be a whole lot harder, and blinging your wallet a whole lot less enjoyable. I hope that my championing of the lanyard makes you more likely to invite it into your Spreadshop bbq.
Competition Alert!
I also found a spare mock music genre lanyard, if you like to win it just offer us your best fake music genre in the comments. The best gets a lanyard and some other super secret swag we’ll find around the office.

A combination of Bluegrass and Hip hop will emerge from the clash between urban and rural cultures, spurred by the common interests of a select few bohemians in both groups advocating the return to living off the land. Most specifically, the return to alternative sources of renewable protein in the human diet. Namely: bugs. The Fusion of Bluegrass and Hiphop that bridges the gap between these two cultures and foists the cross-cultural message of stewardship of the land, both urban and Rural will be called GRASSHOP.
