A pair of cardboard glasses printed with your logo is the promotional item people actually wear. At a festival, a trade show, a company party or a product launch, every guest becomes a walking billboard, and every selfie they post spreads your brand for free. 100% custom FUNGLASSES cardboard glasses can be ordered from 1,000 pieces, with volume pricing and tinted lens options that also turn them into a genuine game accessory. Here is how to choose and use them.
Why custom cardboard glasses?
A pen ends up in a drawer, a tote bag in a cupboard. Glasses are worn on the face, during the event itself, in front of every smartphone camera. That is what makes them one of the most visible promotional giveaways on social media.
- Instant visibility: your logo is worn at eye level, at the centre of every photo.
- Viral effect: a quirky accessory naturally sparks selfies, stories and mentions.
- Low unit cost: a few tens of cents per pair, for an item handed out in large numbers.
- Recyclable: the cardboard frame reduces the footprint of your campaign.
- Light and flat: delivered flat, the glasses are easy to store and hand out, even by the thousand.

Technical specifications of FUNGLASSES
- Cardboard frame: flat size 37 x 402 mm, 1 mm thick. Rigid enough to stay on your nose all evening, light enough to forget you are wearing it.
- Plastic lenses: 41 x 23 mm. They do not correct your vision, but they carry custom transparent patterns.
- Full customisation: frame, arms and lenses. Logo, brand colours, slogan, event hashtag: everything is up to you.
- Several designs possible from 1,000 glasses: ideal for a collection, team colours or different messages.
Red or blue tinted lenses: glasses that act as a filter
This is the option that turns a simple giveaway into a game accessory. The lenses can be made of red or blue tinted plastic. They then work as a colour filter: some colours disappear, others stand out. This opens up several uses:
- Reveal a hidden message: text printed in a shade close to the background, buried in a pattern, becomes readable only through the filter. The classic "decoder" used in mystery games.
- Escape rooms and treasure hunts: clues invisible to the naked eye, cards to decode, codes to find on a board or a poster.
- Contests and in-store promotions: a promo code or a winning prize hidden on a flyer, a card or a ticket, revealed by the glasses handed out at your stand.
- 3D effect: by combining a red lens and a blue lens on the same pair, the glasses let you view anaglyph 3D images.
- Theme parties: a colourful, offbeat atmosphere for a casino night, a murder mystery party or a corporate event.
For a casino night or a game evening, the combination works wonders: guests receive their glasses at the door and use them to decode clues or hidden prizes throughout the evening.

Getting your custom glasses right
- A readable logo: the arms are narrow, so go for a simple logo and short text.
- Contrasting colours: on cardboard, a high-contrast design stays readable from a distance and in photos.
- A call to action: a hashtag or your account name on the arm to collect posts.
- The right lens: clear with patterns for the visual effect, red or blue for the filter function.
- Vector files: supply your logo as a vector file (AI, EPS, PDF or SVG) for a sharp print.
