Custom 20" Foam Sword FAQ: Design, Safety, and Event Use

Designing your custom foam sword

What artwork can I put on a custom foam sword?

Each 20" foam sword includes a one-color imprint on one side, and you choose the artwork. That means your school mascot, team name, or any text you want, as long as it works in a single color. Because the imprint is one-sided, plan the design so it reads clearly from the front when the sword is waved.

Can I put my school mascot and school name on the same sword?

Yes. The product details say you can add your school mascot and your school name or any other text you desire. Keep in mind the one-color limit applies to the whole imprint, so both elements need to work in that single color.

How many colors can I use in the imprint?

One color per sword, printed on one side. If you need multiple colors, you would need to split the design across separate orders or choose a single color that represents your school or team.

Can I design the sword myself?

Yes. The product page lets you custom design the sword yourself, including adding your mascot and text. You do not need to submit a separate art file unless your design requires it, but the one-color, one-side imprint rule still applies.

What the product record confirms

• Custom 20" Foam Sword: All 20" foam swords include a one-color imprint on one side and your choice of artwork. This is the core design constraint: plan a single-color design that reads well from one direction.

  

• Custom 20" Foam Sword: Production time is 2–3 weeks after receipt of your order, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. Build this window into your event calendar so your swords arrive before the game or rally.

Ordering and timing questions

How long does production take?

Production takes 2–3 weeks after your order is received. Weekends and holidays do not count toward that window, so order early enough to leave a buffer before your event date.

Does the production time include shipping?

The supplied information covers production time only. It does not specify shipping transit time, so ask about shipping separately when you place your order.

Is there a minimum order quantity?

The supplied product record does not state a minimum order quantity. Check the product page or contact the store to confirm before ordering for a large group.

What does the sword cost?

The catalog price is USD 1.42 per sword, with a comparison price of USD 2.84. Prices can change, so confirm the current price at checkout.

Using foam swords at games and events

Where do foam swords work best?

They are designed for waving in the stands and showing team spirit. The product description highlights waving them high to show the other team you are number one. They suit pep rallies, spirit nights, and other crowd moments where fans want a visible prop.

Are foam swords safe for kids and crowds?

The product is made of foam, which is lightweight and soft compared with rigid materials. However, the supplied record does not include safety certifications, age recommendations, or testing results. Treat them as spirit props, supervise younger children, and avoid hitting people or hard objects.

Can I use a foam sword as a giveaway or fundraiser item?

Yes. At the catalog price, they work as a low-cost giveaway or add-on for spirit events. Because each sword includes a one-color imprint, you can add a sponsor logo or event name, but confirm the design fits the one-side, one-color format.

How should I store and care for the swords?

The supplied information does not include specific care or storage instructions. As a practical matter, keep them dry and away from sharp objects, and inspect them before each event for tears or damage. Replace any sword that looks worn.

Matching the sword to your event

A custom foam sword is a visual prop first. Because the imprint is one color on one side, the strongest designs are bold, simple, and readable from a distance. If you are ordering for a pep rally or spirit night, coordinate the imprint color with your school colors and keep the mascot or text large enough to see from the stands.

Ordering early matters more than any design tweak. The 2–3 week production window runs from when your order is received, and it excludes weekends and holidays. Work backward from your event date and add a cushion for shipping and any design questions.
