Merchandise, licensing and vendors

All merchandise and apparel items featuring Mines trademarks must be produced by a licensed vendor. To access the latest list of licensed vendors, please download the list here.

Student organizations must abide by the licensing policy when printing branded apparel and merchandise, including T-shirts, pens, water bottles and other swag items featuring Mines trademarks.

If university offices, departments, individuals or organizations purchase branded items from non-approved vendors, there may be instances where the university will not be able to cover the cost of those items.

For more information regarding merchandise, licensing and vendors, please contact Lisa Goberis.

Branded merchandise and apparel

Branded merchandise and apparel

If you are printing items that have a shelf life of more than one year, we recommend using the institutional lockup in a one-color format, as shown above. For items facing external audiences, or more general in nature, the full institutional logo with “Colorado School of Mines” may be used. For items that are only internal-facing, the unit identifier may be used. For items that have small imprint areas, either of the wordmarks may be used.
