SOFTSWISS asked Swag42 to create 42 custom-branded conference hoodies using our signature hoodie for the speakers and partners of Tech Race Summit 2026 in Warsaw. The team approached us in late August, and the hoodies were ready for the summit on 10 September.

Conference speaker gifts

SOFTSWISS is an international software developer providing technology solutions for the iGaming industry. Already a trusted Swag42 partner, the team contacted us in late August about hoodies for Tech Race Summit speakers and partners. The conference was on 10 September 2026, leaving a short window to prepare all 42 hoodies.

The scope was focused: customise a Swag42 signature model for this particular event. The finished hoodie needed to bring together the summit, its organiser and its partners in one wearable design.

The hoodie: Acid Washed Fadeout

The project used our Acid Washed Hoodie Fadeout in Fade Out Grey. Its washed finish, relaxed shape and front pouch pocket gave the design a casual feel, while the yellow and red Tech Race identity stood out against the grey.

The branding layout placed the summit logo on the chest, partner logos along the sleeves and the SOFTSWISS logo on the back. Each part of the garment had a clear role, with the main event identity taking the most visible position.

Flock, flex and DTF branding

The chest design combined flock and flex printing. The close-up shows the raised, textured yellow and red lettering alongside the smaller white summit detail. That texture gave the event logo a tactile quality as well as a strong colour contrast.

The project layout specified direct-to-film (DTF) printing for the white sleeve logos and the SOFTSWISS logo on the back. Combining these techniques gave the main identity and the supporting logos different treatments within the same design.

42 hoodies, ready on time

All 42 hoodies were ready for Tech Race Summit on 10 September 2026. The event website listed Swag42 as one of its official merch partners.

For the organising team, the hoodies also became a way to connect with speakers. Igor Lisichenko described their role in a comment on Swag42’s project post:

Thank you for being part of the project and for the amazing support! The hoodies added a special vibe to the event and, even better, helped us break the ice and connect with our speakers on a more personal level. A small detail that made a big difference!
