Add movement to your designs with sliding lapel pins
A moving element can turn an ordinary pin into something people want to pick up and play with. Sliding pins are particularly useful when you want your merchandise to be memorable. They’re great for brands looking for something different, event organisers wanting a fun giveaway, and collectors who enjoy pins with unusual features. With Olson Badges' custom sliding lapel pins, your design can include a movable section that travels along a defined path. This could be used for a character, logo element, message, symbol, or visual effect, depending on what you want the pin to do.
Product Description
Sliding lapel pins fall into the second category. They include a movable section that can slide or move across the main pin, giving the design a little extra personality. It could be a character that moves, a symbol that changes position, or a decorative element that reveals part of the artwork as it slides. This makes them particularly fun for promotional campaigns, events, clubs, schools, collectors, brands, and anyone looking for something a little different from a traditional static pin.

Features at a Glance
-
Interactive sliding element
The defining feature is the movable section. It can slide along the pin, giving the design movement and making it more engaging than a traditional static badge.
-
Fun and memorable
There’s something naturally appealing about a pin that moves. The interactive feature can make your design more memorable and encourage people to pick it up, look at it, and show it to others.
-
Designed around your idea
Your sliding element can be incorporated into the artwork from the beginning, allowing the movement to become part of the overall design rather than simply an added feature.
-
Great for characters and illustrations
Sliding pins work particularly well with characters, mascots, scenes, and illustrations. A moving character or object can add a playful touch to the design.
-
Use movement to reveal a message.
Depending on the design, the sliding element can move to reveal or cover different parts of the artwork, creating an interesting visual effect.
-
Add colour with enamel.
Enamel can be used to add bold colours to the fixed and moving parts of the pin. This is particularly useful for logos, characters, illustrations, and themed designs.
-
Different metal finishes
Choose a metal finish that complements your artwork. Polished, brushed, antique, and other finishes can give the pin a completely different look.
-
Custom shapes and sizes
Sliding pins can be designed in different shapes and sizes depending on how the moving element needs to work. The design can be built around your artwork and the movement you want to achieve.
-
Perfect for promotional merchandise
Because they’re interactive, sliding pins can help your promotional merchandise stand out from the usual static giveaways. They’re ideal for events, launches, campaigns, brands, and competitions.
