Plain Bandanas

The humble bandana has its origins in the Middle East and South Asia, dating back to the 17^th century, when it was first used solely for practical reasons – to protect the face and neck from the sun and dust, and to wipe away sweat from the eyes. Over the years the bandana has evolved, not so much in its substance but in the way it has been used. For long periods in history the bandana was associated with symbolism and was frequently adopted by groups that wished to be identified and recognised, most notably workers in the last century, but today the bandana is now viewed as a timeless and iconic fashion accessory. Of course, the bandana still serves its primary function, offering protection from the heat and cold, but it’s affordability, versatility and simplicity lends itself to a wide range of uses in modern life.

Mike Breig at Bandanas Australia has a lifetime of entrepreneurial experience and has been directly involved with supplying bandanas for over 12 years and now is considered to have the widest range of bandanas in Australia. With 3 main styles of bandana, square, tri or multifunctional available in either plain colours, ready printed themed designs or featuring your own designs and logos, the choice of bandana is virtually limitless!

The standard square cotton bandanas measure 54 x 54cm and are suitable for all size of heads, but can equally be worn with ease as a neckerchief; the tri bandana comes in at 52 x 36 x36 cm, again providing supreme versatility and the multi-function bandana’s measurements is 50 x 25 cm. The range of eye-catching colours varies from lime green, sky blue, yellow, pink and orange through to more subdued tones such as brown, navy blue, khaki and of course black and white. In this simple format, coloured bandanas are extremely popular with sports teams and organisations, facilitating easy recognition at affordable prices.

However, with the addition of your own artwork, team colours, company logo or branding the bandana can be transformed into a highly distinctive and effective marketing tool bringing your organisation directly into the eye of the public.
