Best Lanyard?

[cmh1118, BSN]

Hi everyone,

What's the best lanyard with ID badge that you've found? I work at a private school where every door is badge-opened. This past year I didn't use a badge protector and by the end of the year it was completely white, everything had rubbed off. I see the Vera Bradley ones but they look as if the lanyard attaches on the side, not the middle, so if anyone has it does it sit weird when you wear it? Yes I've checked on Amazon, ebay, etc bust most look so cheap and plastic. Share your wisdom!!!! Thank you! :)

Hope a school nurse member can chime in re best lanyard.... I've used an allnurses one for years obtained at AACN convention.

I use Vera Bradley, no issues for me. In like that I can keep a business card in the pocket as well.

I like the ones with that are a clip, not a lanyad and have the "line" that you can pull out when you need your badge. I don't like things around my neck so I wear it on my pants and just pull mine from my hip when I need to use it.

Thank you!! I was thinking of getting one of those. Does it sit weird since the hook is not centered on the pouch?

I wear a university lanyard. Promotes my school/education to students when they ask.

Yeah, the neck ones get in the way. Mine's on a little retractible doohicky that I clip to my pants pocket.
