Custom Graduation Leis with School Colors: The OEM Guide for 2027
Share
Generic leis are fine for a party store. But when a whole graduating class wears your school's exact colors — with the year, maybe a mascot patch — the ceremony photographs like a brand campaign. Here's how custom (OEM) lei orders actually work, end to end.
What You Can Customize
| Option | What You Can Specify |
|---|---|
| Colors | Any 2–3 ribbon combination, matched to your school or team colors |
| Year & text print | "2026", "GRAD", "Class of 2026" or custom wording printed on the ribbon |
| Embroidered patches | GRAD letters, diploma scroll, star, mascot — stitched at the lei center |
| Length | Standard 120cm/47in, or custom (kids, plus-size, hooded gowns) |
| Set composition | Lei only, lei + honor cord, or full set with sash/stole |
| Packaging | Bulk bags, polybag with header card, branded gift box |

- Sample in 7 days — we produce a physical sample for your approval before any bulk commitment.
- Bulk production — 15–30 days depending on quantity, after sample sign-off.
- Delivery — on time for your ceremony, via express or sea freight.
MOQ and Pricing
- Custom orders: from 20 pcs — low enough for a single class, scalable to 10,000+ university runs.
- Standard styles: from 1 dozen at wholesale tier prices.
- Custom woven lei with year print: from $3.60/pc (120cm).
- Embroidered patch versions and logo/packaging are quoted per design.
